Thats 22 of a declared 25 I think and 2 quality players for each position, a few round pegs in not so round holes but WTF. I cant imagine trying to keep that lot happy lol
I can think of limitless combinations of the above - all of which make me wet!
So all we need to do is get Nasri -20 mill, swap Tevez for Sneijder plus 15 mill, let Barca buy Fabregas and pinch Sanchez from Udinese for 35 mill whilst giving Barca 20 mill to buy Fabregas by bagging Villa and giving 25 mill to Athletico for Aguero - Job done! Net spend 85 Mill + 13 Mill for Savic and Cliche - 98 Million.
I dont honestly believe we'd buy 7 players but seriously believe 4 or 5 of the above could be on as I think Savic wont be used just yet. Nasri, Sneijder and Aguero added to the 2 we've already bought

Is this a formula for 'everything' - or telling us summut about football? To save me reading this - is it good news or bad?

SUBS: ROMERO, SAVIC, KOLAROV, ZABALETA, MILNER, A.JOHNSON + BALOTELLI

Got a feeling Mancio would play it more like this though:

_______________NASRI___________Y.TOURE________________

Not that I would have a preference to either one though, in Bobby we trust.

That is Quality,i reckon we could win the league with this. : )

This... But can it happen?

Can someone print this off and stick it to Mancini's car windscreen please!

The team above with the ever improving,superstar in the making,Mata replacing sneijder would be my choice.

He already has an understanding with silva and is out to make a name for himself,probably has more strings to his bow as can play across the field and has good pace,no apparent ego to contend with and a far cheaper contract.

Wishful thinking? Anyway here is my team, the diamond formation:

---------------------------Hart--------------------------------

--------Richards------------Kompany(c)-----------Lescott/Savic----------Clichy

---------------------------------------DeJong---------------------------------

---------------------------Yaya---------------------Silva------------

-----------------------------------Nasri-------------------------------

-------------------------Agureo------------------Lavezzi/Dzeko/Balo

Sliva, Nasri and Yaya can rotate. This formation might not work as there is no wingers but Richards and Clichy can push up and act as wing backs and De Jong can drop almiost into CB and Kompany and lescott push out a bit wider. So that then would look like this:

----------------------------------------Hart----------------------------------

---------------------Kompnay--------------------------------Lescott---------

------------Richards--------------------De Jong-------------------------Clichy

---------------------------------Yaya---------------------Silva--------------

-----------------------------------------Nasri-----------------------------

--------------------------------Agureo------------Lavezzi/Dzeko/Balo

Picking the subs is a nightmare though, so I'll gladly leave that to someone else.

All three offensive mids constantly swapping positions causing hell for the opposing team.

Mario??
Just sayin.....

This is rubbish. Not thought through at all. I can pick holes with every selection made except; Hart, Kompany & Clichy. Worst AND most unlikely effort yet................
Change this team - and, while your about it- your name too!
