I do like the look of that.

I'd have the Beast (if in form) up front in preference to Jovetić, but yep. This.

This would be an unreal side, would go far in the CL especially with the bench we would have.... Nastasic, MDM, Sagna, Garcia, Navas, Dzeko, Negredo, Jovetic...

It might seem a bit far-fetched to play Messi in a 4-4-2 but I reckon it could happen

Begovic
Diarra Pique Boyata Clichy
Song Pogba
Bale Fabregas Ronaldo
Rossi

Schmeichel, A. Traore, Rafael, Ireland, Weiss, Larsson, Vela

18 homegrown players. I think Dyke might have a heart attack.

With one major incoming/outgoing, Fabregas for Yaya. And assuming Fernando/Benatia go through of course. We can't sign any other major players like Reus so including them is pointless. Yaya/Cesc is a swap we could make. You could swap Silva and Fabregas around too, but ultimate where they start on paper would be irrelevant. Only Fernando would have a more dedicated position, and the front 5 would interchange constantly.
