Liverpool: Gerrard - Simply is Mr Liverpool... something we don't have at City, he's been nothing special recently. But still a good leader and gives it his all for England.
Rags: Vidic - One of... maybe even the best CB in the world in my opinion... he's been solid this season, at least when he was partnered with Ferdinand. One of the best CB pairings around at the moment, Ferdinand has stepped up his game aswell... just injury seems to be holding him back. Had they had Ferdinand/Vidic partnership at Wolves. They wouldn't of lost the game. I think if both play in the derby, we may struggle.
I would of added Nani to the list... talented and plays similar to Ronaldo, but he's trying to be too much like him. The whole diving thing puts me off him. He does it more than he needs to.
Chelsea - Ashley Cole, would have at City in a heartbeat... best LB in the world, quite pacey and good going forward. Off the field has been an annoyance for him, people can say what they like... but he's recently kept his head down. While his Mrs and her close friends are taking shots at him, he seems to just ignore it and get on with playing football
Essien - Often bosses the midfield... didn't look that good against Liverpool (don't think anyone really had a good game) but Chelsea look weaker without him.
Arsenal - Wilshere, I wasnt a fan just over a year ago... came across as a very angry looking brat. He's looking the part now though, in the first team at Arsenal and can hold the ball in midfield well. Should be starting for England, Barry plays a similar role... but he looks tired and old, often looks like he's trying to shift his body and get away a pass. Wilshere just does it without much effort.
Spurs - Modric - Similar to Silva really... rarely see his lose the ball and plays some beautiful passes. Spurs look alot more creative with him on the field.
Bale - Best winger in the league at the moment... ran riot against the world best RB (Maicon).The question is, can he keep it up? We thought Stephen Ireland was the next big thing for us during the 08-09 season... turned out to be a one season wonder and now looks just another average player.
Thoughts? What would your choices be?
