I only like this type of system if we would defend further away from the goal. You can't take the initiative this way without running a lot of risks, if you don't have quick backup from the last line. It takes a lot of pace and accuracy to be succesful over a longer period of time, and good communication too. And most important of all, the players will need more assignments than just one. We can't afford to lose the ball too many times, because it will take more energy to get in defensive mode, because our defense is further away from the goal, and they'll have to move too much, unless the whole team works for them too. All in all: not very typical for an Italian club.
In our current shape, there is no way we could perform well playing this way.
