Starting 11 next season

[Rammy Blue]

Hart, Zabaleta, Kompany, Nastasic, Clichy, Yaya, Fernandinho, Silva, Navas, Aguero, Jovetic

Difficult to name a starting 11 as we will have so many variations. That said, I'd say as it stands the above is what I'd expect.

 

[Cheadle_hulmeBlue]

can see milner and rodwell starting a lot of games. Dont think we will have a settled starting 11 next season, with more rotation

 

[Blueroses]

one thing for sure we will have a ,frightening, awesome bench.

People keep saying jovetic is a striker but I think he was bought more as CAM and guidetti is a 4th choice.

curious how negredo and dzeko will be handled by Pelle.

Does anyone get the feeling negredo is Dzeko's replacement before he leave next season maybe? I get the feeling he is off, maybe it is for the best...

My guess is that they're waiting to see how Guidetti does when fully fit. They'll probably take stock in January. If by then Guidetti has shown that he can justify the 4th striker role and Edin isn't getting that many games, he'll probably go.

I can't see Milner, Barry or Dzeko starting many.

If our best XI is

Hart, Zabs, Kompany, Nasty, Yaya, Fernadhino, Navas, Silva, Jovetic, Aguero

then by default our second XI has to be

Pants, Richards, Garcia, Lescott, Kolorov, Rodwell, Barry, Milner, Nasri, Negredo, Dzeko.

Looking at that second eleven, Sinclair doesn't get a look in I am afraid. If as we understand that is the only business we do, how good is that second eleven? Could it win games in the prem league?

 

[Ireland_for_pm]

Hart
Zaba Kompany Nastasic Clichy
Navas Fernandinho Yaya Silva
Aguero Dzeko

Always one that puts in dzeko. Because him and aguero always works :s

well you never want to deploy your full 2nd string team in a Prem game, unless you are Mick McCarthy.
