2011-2012 Lineup

[nadavTKL 1,787]

I like what iii3 suggested, somthing like this can be amazing:

Cech

Ivan - Luiz - JT - Cole

Essien - Lampard

Hulk - Malouda

Torres - Falcao

[Peace. 4,352]

Ima only make what lineup I would like... Since Andre Villas-Boas seems to have unexpected plans for us...

Cech

Ivanovic* - Luiz - Terry - A.Cole

Mikel

Ramires - Modric

Sturridge** - Falcao - Neymar

* I'd rather a real right back, but since we aren't being linked with any RB, it looks like we're going to stick with what we already have in the squad, and Ivanovic is the better choice (maybe try Ramires there).

** I don't want him to play there at all, but with Falcao (if true) he has no chance to play as a striker... So let's play him on the wing and watch what happen. It could also save us some money.

With a role - in the first team - given to Kakuta, Bertrand and McEachran. I'd also like to get Thiago Alcantara.

[chrismada9 1,948]

My starting XI would consist of something like this....

---Cech---

---Ivanovic---Terry---Luiz---Cole/Bertrand---

---Essien/Mikel---

---Ramires---Lampard---

---Moutinho---

---Falcao---Drogba/Torres---

or... if we go for the usual 4-3-3 approach...

---Cech---

---Ivanovic---Terry---Luiz---Cole/Bertrand---

---Ramires---Essien---

---McEachran---

---Sturridge---Torres---Mata---

[Armageddon 1]

Torres - Falcao - Hulk

----Lampard - Modric

---------Essien

Cole - Terry - Luiz - Ivanovic

---------Cech

Somehow I really don't like the idea of selling DD

[J.F. 1,484]

Ivanovic-Luiz-Terry-Cole

Mikel

Hamsik/Modric-Lampard

Mata-Torres-Neymar

[Melanicus 5,208]

This one is the most likely.

Čech - no comment

Bosingwa - he will give him a chance

Luiz - his first option

Terry - no comment

A. Cole - no comment

Essien - could be replaced by Ramires

Moutinho - his player

Lampard - could be replaced by McEachran

Torres - mr. Abramovich's choice

Falcao - his player

Sturridge - no comment

As we see really no place for Drogba in this squad

[dave30 728]

i would like to see

Cech

Cole Luiz Terry Ivanovic

Modric Mceachran Lampard

A. Johnson / E.Hazzard Torres Sturridge

[Severinb 309]

Cech

VDW Luiz Terry Cole

Essien Modric Lampard

Hazard Torres Mata

[Jose M 140]

Falcoa Would NOT be the right man for CFC. Why does everyone rate this man? Before last season he had never scored more than 10 goals in one season!

---Cech---

---Ivanovic---Terry---Luiz---Bertrand---

---Ramires---Essien---

---McEachran---

---Sturridge---Torres---Hulk---

[ulsterchelsea 3,221]

Has Falcao all but signed? Think the gun has been jumped a bit there! Dont reckon him and Nando can play in a front 3 together as they occupy the same role

[YouNameIt 1,511]

Falcoa Would NOT be the right man for CFC. Why does everyone rate this man? Before last season he had never scored more than 10 goals in one season!

08-09 Torres did 17 goals. The season after 33.

01-02 Drogba did 3 goals. The season after 21.

etc

Fact is, he is basically already here. Is he a good player? Of course. Is he comparable with Messi or Ronaldo? No, of course not.
