The significance of this game has dropped slightly from last years corresponding fixture however for us the prize is the same, forgetting the games we have left, if we win this game we win champions league football and everything that goes with it and also bragging rights towards a club we all hate!
So for me we should play a strong team;
--------------Hart--------------------
--Zab----Kompany----Lescott----Kolarov-
-----------------Nige----------------
-----------Yaya--------Silva-----------
----Milner--------------------Balotelli-
------------------Dzeko--------------
Now, I know this is not a likely team and Im sure he'll play Barry and Johnson for Milner and Dzeko but for me I thought Dzeko played quite well on saturday given the service he got and I'd like to give him a chance with the likes of milner, kolarov, zab and silva all targeting him in the box and see how he fairs. Now the reason for my attacking midfield is because we know that Sandro will be asked to shield their back four and so in the middle we will only have the threat of Modric to handle and I think De Jong is up for that task on his own with yaya doing a box to box role covering for Kolarov(in Particular) and Zab when necessary because we know all about their threat out wide although Bale is out. I don't think Tevez is either ready nor should play in the final so to have both strikers on the pitch we can see which out of Mario and Dzeko deserves to play on saturday!
