warnie_666 1,081 Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 People who say Torres cant score and is a Flop just need to look at Man City and the situation with Dzeko. Last season he had two goals in all competition. This season, he has been banging them in, with two creative players behind him in Nasri and Silva. There is creativity all around that midfield and Torres would do the same. Our midfield is the same as last year's. Absolutely Dire.We desperately need Modric. A Formation of ----------------Mikel-------------Ramirez-------------------ModricSturridge----Torres--------MataHas Pace, Creativity and Movement.

warnie_666 1,081 Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 Someone said Mata on Left wing is Wasted?Absolutely not.Mata only starts on the Left Wing and I am sure, AVB will give him the license to move around in the hole. A Bit like Messi who starts on the Right wing but moves around.josh or frank instead of mikel and i agree .You need a defensive midfielder. Would be stupid to have McEchran there. and Lampard is not a defensive midfielder. Mikel is good and he stays Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dodojojo 510 Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 Said it in another post, City had three creative players feeding their center forward today. Chelsea, yesterday, had? Mata for 20 minutes, of which Torres played about 4 minutes with? Picture Torres' game at Stoke with Aguero, Nasri and Silva behind him.

BlueLion. 21,491 Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 Us and City signed the wrong player. Torres would be lethal at City and Dzeko would slot nicely into our formation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joker10 946 Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 I don't believe replacing Modric with Lamps will solve our midfield problem. The pairing of Mikel and Ramires is our biggest problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pairing of Mikel and Ramires is our biggest problem.How exactly? One is a Box to Box who is quick and drives the midfield, and the other is a holding midfielder who just sits and cleans up ahead of the defense. nothing Fancy.Modric is the playmaker.Although I do agree that a Midfield of Josh and Modric with Ramirez at the back is more creative. But Josh cant start games straight away....He needs to assume the Modric role in games like Carling Cup or FA Cup Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Torres would be lethal at City and Dzeko would slot nicely into our formation.City wanted Torres and was offering him 250K last summer. He said no and that's why they signed Dzeko in the winter. And that's how Chelsea signed Torres--because they waited until Dzeko was signed and avoided a bidding war with City over Torres.Wonder if Torres watched today's game and wondered what it would be like to play with his buddies Silva and Aguero and add in Nasri. Oh, is that Tevez on the bench? It must be nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nadavTKL 1,787 Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 Modric needs to play togheter with Lampard. Replacing Modric with Lampard would do very little. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

warnie_666 1,081 Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 Yeah, but he do it for like 5 minutes in a game.He doves far more than that. Currently he along with Bosingwa are our Best Players and it would be stupid to bench him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

warnie_666 1,081 Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 Ramirez is the best player in the midfield and cannot be benched but I am tempted to play this formation for our season.-----------Mikel--------------------Modric-----------------------------------------------------JoshStudge-------Torres---------MataThats 4-3-3 Barcelona Style with Modric playing the Xavi role, Josh playing the Iniesta Role and Mata playing the Messi Role. Thats Creativity Galore and id bet my jewels on Torres banging them in day in and out. May be sometime later in the season cus at the moment Ramirez is unplayable.

A Bit like Messi who starts on the Right wing but moves around.I suppose so.I just think we'd be better buying a proper left-winger (such as Perriera for £15million) and then make Mata our playmaker.
