Our best 11

Just play the 6-1 team every game. Can someone tell me how many times we've played this starting 11 since that day?

.................................Hart

Micah...............Vinnie...........Lescott..............Clichy

.......................Yaya............Barry

.............Milner...............................Silva

.......................Aguero...........Mario

Clichy and Micah providing the width like they did at the beginning of the season, I'd be confident of this team winning every game we have left.

It's when you start pissing about with Kolo, NDJ, Kolarov and Dzeko that we begin to function incorrectly.

Bang on. It is to Mancini's discredit that this team has played together so few times. I've been saying this for months now.

To be fair, I don't think that XI has been fit or free to play that many times the last few months

Get this though, that team that started at the swamp has NEVER started for us again, not before or after.

Are you telling me that those 11 have never all been fully fit either before that point or since?

I don't think they have been: first was Richards injured, then Balotelli, then Kompany's suspension, followed by Balo suspended, etc., etc.
 
Obviously it depends on which formation I'd use, but me being a life-long fan of the 4-5-1 with a lone target man/striker would go with something like this:

------------------------Hart-----------------------
----------Komapny------------Lescott-----------
Richards----------------------------------Clichy
---------------YaYa-----------Barry--------------
------------------------Silva----------------------
-------Aguero-----------------------Balotelli----
-----------------------Dzeko---------------------

If Tevez was available and in his prime he'd take Edin's position.
