Pogba, new stop: Juve-Sampdoria skips due to a muscle problem

Paul Pogba will not be available to Merry for tonight’s match against Sampdoria. The French midfielder, after missing last Thursday’s match against Freiburg for disciplinary reasons, will have to raise the white flag for the match against the Blucerchiati. This morning during the finishing up, the Frenchman felt a muscle problem which forced Allegri not to include him in the squad: it is difficult to hypothesize that he will be called up for the match against Freiburg on Thursday, even if the exams will be more precise in this regard.

Without Pogba and with the turnover to face Sampdoria

At the press conference, Allegri was clear: “The standings are made in challenges with the small teams”. That’s why against the blucerchiati there will be room for the second lines but also for a large group of starters. In this morning’s final stages, the coach resolved his last reservations about the team that will take the field against Sampdoria. The technician tried Barrenechea in the role of playmaker, with Paredes still on the bench, who will make up the midfield together with Fagioli and Rabiot, while on the flanks it will be De Sciglio’s turn on the right and Kostic on the left. Miretti will play behind Vlakhovicthe only striker available, while the three line that will protect Perin will be made up of Bremer, Bonucci and Danilo.
