Tactical Identity
4-3-3Mid BlockAlt: 4-2-3-1In poss: 3-4-2-1 / 3-5-2 — CBs split in build-up, Bernabé as creative hub behind Pellegrino in a fluid front structureOut of poss: 4-3-3 / 4-4-2 compact mid-block — disciplined shape, content to hold structure and hit on the break

Possession-based but lacking end product. Patient build-up through Bernabé and Keita. Only 21 goals — 2nd worst in Serie A. Defensively sound with 10 draws reflecting a stalemate tendency.

Spanish tactical influence under Cuesta (succeeded Chivu who moved to Inter). Methodical, defensive-first with an inability to unlock compact defences. Youngest squad in Serie A (avg 24.5). Development-first American ownership (Krause Group). Pellegrino (Argentine, 8 goals) is the unexpected standout. Suzuki (Japanese GK, €20m!) has been excellent.
