Carlo Ancelotti gave the first statements since the start of the preseason. The Italian confirmed that the current make-up of the squad could lead to a change in the system. In other words, the already familiar 4-3-3 could be history next season judging by the words of the coach.

"When I started coaching I had a clear idea and I didn't adapt to the players I had. I had an experience at Parma, where Baggio wanted to play as a playmaker and I didn't change the system. He went to another team. And I was wrong. At Juventus, with Zidane, I started to understand that it's better to adapt to the players. Players have to feel comfortable in the system they play. I adapted and I'm still adapting. This year we might play a different system. We don't have to forget that the system we have played with has been very successful, but we can try a new style. We're going to try it on the tour, which is a good time to do so."
