Below is the TOP 11 of TuttoMercatoWeb.com who opts for 4-3-3:

Rinaldi (FeralpiSalò): It is not easy to replace a sacred monster like Pizzignacco, but if the morning is a good indicator of the day, we can say that the Lombards knew how to choose the best. “Monstrous match” was the term used by colleagues who followed the match live, 95 minutes of absolute depth closed with a prodigious intervention on Agyemang.
Faedo (Padua): Ghilani tries to escape him on several occasions, but the white-and-blue defender is having a great night and immediately takes his measure. A couple of decisive closures in the center of the area and also a good ability to dribble to set up the action from the back just as the coach asks. Promoted.
Square (Giana Erminio): just when the game seemed irremediably compromised, here comes the equalizer just before the final whistle. The scorer is perhaps the least expected man, a defender with a big heart who, having recovered the ball in the opponent’s half, draws a mocking trajectory that leaves Confente stunned. A 2-2 on the Vicenza pitch in the debut is an injection of confidence of inestimable value.
Auriletto (Renate): in a not particularly exciting and slow-paced match, the performance of mister Foschi’s rearguard stands out. Pro Patria, in fact, never became dangerous and the number 5 was the best for consistency of performance, concentration and ability to read potential dangers in advance.
Bertoncini (Novara): drawing 0-0 on the pitch of a team relegated from Serie B and fielded with an offensive system was certainly not easy. In Gattuso’s trio we reward him for a series of decisive anticipations on Di Molfetta. A high-caliber opponent for the category who was contained very well.
Ilari (Lecco): match decided by an own goal, but a very important victory after a period of great difficulty culminating with the relegation, the controversy of the outgoing owner and the change at the helm of the club. Baldini had asked for heart, intensity and spirit of sacrifice and he perfectly embodied all three values. His application in its phases is praiseworthy.
Bagatti (Alcyone): on the day of the freshmen, here is the coup of the team coached by Cusatis. The header of the midfielder dies in the corner, a perfect trajectory that eludes the strenuous resistance of the blameless Dajcar. After a game of great sacrifice in non-possession, he allowed himself an offensive sortie… a very good choice!
Crisetig (Padua): only beautiful goals, for the white and blue team. The 3-0 against Trento confirms that there is really a lot of quality in the squad and that mister Andreoletti is spoiled for choice in all departments. The former Reggina midfielder scored perhaps the most beautiful goal of the entire day, an Insigne-style curling shot that made the Euganeo crowd explode.
Pannitteri (Lumezzane): the psychophysical condition is excellent, it is no coincidence that he tries to warm up the goalkeeper’s gloves after just 100 seconds. He is the one who decides the match against Virtus Verona with the classic predatory paw of the penalty area. Not content, he comes close to scoring a brace with a powerful, but not angled, mid-range conclusion.
Vertainen (Triestina): the sultry temperatures of these days push the coach to adopt a very simple but effective tactic: throw the fastest players into the fray, during the game, to be able to take advantage of the opponent’s tiredness. His entrance was decisive and shifted the balance, in fact Triestina began to play a more aggressive football made of verticalizations and overlaps. The goal is deserved recognition for an approach of a great player. The dribbling on Milillo was beautiful, as was the diagonal shot that ended up in the corner.
Cazzadori (Caldiero Terme): a brace to go down in history and give his team their first success in Lega Pro on the pitch of a historic club for the category like Albinoleffe. It takes him 12 minutes to stamp his card: elegant dribbling on the goalkeeper and the ball in the back of the net. He repeats in the 63rd minute creating the conditions for the incredible final comeback.
Michele Santoni (Triestina): has the double task of finally banishing the “ghost” of Tesser and restoring enthusiasm after a season that would be an understatement to call complicated. The initial 3-0 against Arzignano gives a lot of confidence, the move to insert the fastest players in the second half is smart.
