Starting XI for next season, your prediction.

[dachoosen1]

Cant see mancini changing formation think we will play a 4-5-1! With yaya, dejong and barry/milner! If we can get in aguero and nasri that will leave us with silva, nasri, johnson, balo, dzeko and aguero! Plenty of opinions in attack but i think we could do with a box to box midfielder or two as cover for dejong or yaya!

Can't see Bobby playing the diamond, or playing with two out and out strikers.

Why is Mancini going to change from two holding midfielders to just one when the central defenders are exactly the same? Doesn't make any sense.
Also, isnt Silva left footed and Nasri right footed?
Further- I also thought Aguero was a striker?<br /><br />-- Mon Jul 11, 2011 8:41 am --<br /><br />HART

We're getting more players whose names end in vowels - can only be good news!

very surprised at the number of people who feel that despite Bobby spending £27M each on Mario and Edin within the last 12 months that neither will start

 

[johnny crossan]

Tevez was in everybody's team, then he wasn't in any. Now Nasri is everywhere but after Wenger's PC I reckon he'll disappear too.

Got excited then seen a headline on ssn saying "Wayne on swans radar" wrong Wayne I'm afraid

Do you think either deserve/have earned the right yet?

I think most definitely. Balotelli will get a myriad of starts. However, Dzeko is unfortunate in the sense that his style is warranted by far less teams than man city's more orthodox 4-3-3 which favours balo,silva and tevez upfront.

all players barring hart kompany and de jong (spine of the team) should be tinkered with throughout the season. i dont mean like starting on the bench just like this

hart
richards kompany savic kolarov
de jong
milner nasri
silva balotelli
dzeko

Hello Treble

thats a winning team.

i want to see a few youth team players playing in the carling cup like arsenal.
the fact that mancini has taken suarez to the states wither suggests that 1 he wants a proper look at him or two hes getting chucked into the deep end like boyata. i hope he gets a run out in a pre season game.

But using that reasoning, guys who are not even here yet, have less of a right, don't they?<br /><br />-- Mon Jul 11, 2011 8:51 pm --<br /><br />

Hello Treble

Yeah with 12 players, you kind of have an unfair advantage there :P

Yes,i agree completely,although the likes of Aguero have a superb pedigree,he is just as likely to find the adjustment to the prem league equally difficult,that is why Tevez will be such a huge loss,we are likely going into a new season without a proven reliable prem striker.
