Some changes for Mazzarri to his somewhat usual line up for friendlies. The midfield 3 - really the core of his team - is Guarin, Cambiasso and Kuzmanovic. Which probably means that he is done with the Alvarez as a midfield experiment, I hope. Belfodil makes a change from Icardi, but that could be anything. Chivu starting is surprising to me, but then I am rather shocked that he's still on the team. I don't read anything into it, though. Froggy is just getting a rest, I bet.
