Strike 7,486 Posted July 14, 2013 Share Posted July 14, 2013 de Rossi can be paired with any of Lampard, MvG, Ramires, Mikel, Essien in midfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azpinator 2,325 Posted July 14, 2013 Share Posted July 14, 2013 Of course he'd want him to stay, you don't want to lose your best player but it happens. Just ask Wenger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duppy Conqueror 1,532 Posted July 14, 2013 Share Posted July 14, 2013 De Rossi,Oscar and Ramires I think in a 3 would compliment each other best.that doesn't mean Mata has to play on the wing.there's many different formations possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strike 7,486 Posted July 14, 2013 Share Posted July 14, 2013 Mata on the wing is not bad. He did fairly well in the first few months under AVB but knowing how good he is in the playmaker role, he shouldn't be shunted to the wings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sidzeret 2,257 Posted July 14, 2013 Share Posted July 14, 2013 4-2-1-3??de ross- ram as pivot, Mata as CAM..pretty much an attacking 4-3-3 rather than our holding 4-1-2-3 formation used before. Gives plenty of space for our amigos to swap about and attack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nadavTKL 1,787 Posted July 14, 2013 Share Posted July 14, 2013 (KDB-De Rossi-Oscar) would not not work IMO since both are not natural midfielders, (Ramires-De Rossi-Oscar) would however be goodBut if we went to a 4-3-3 Mata would be pushed out wide. While he's still an effective player on the wing, he isn't at his best there.It could work against some teams, but I don't know if I want to see Mata out on the wing trying to deal with Zabaleta for instance.Mata is one player, yes he's our best one but he's only one player. If the all squad is more suitable for 4-3-3 i prefer we play it. Not to mention that even if Mata placed on the right, he could still roam around like always. In the beginning of the season he was placed on the right and Oscar in the middle btw.I think that 4-3-3 is more suitable for us because Ramires, Lampard, Oscar and KDB all play better in this system i think. Playing Ramires-De Rossi would realy lack the creativity most teams have in those positions, and it will be hard for us to play against them. Just look at the midfield of Bayern and Dortmund, the two teams who got to the final of last season, they are so creative in this area. Schwei-Kross-Martinez (now Thiago also), Gundogan-Bender, and Alonso-Khdira, Iniesta-Xabi-Busquets. I think we need to build a midfield who could compete with the best, becuase thats what we are trying to be. You just need to look at last season CL to understand that a De Rossi-Ramires pivot wouldnt get us too far. It doesnt fits todays football.Anyway MVG-Rossi-Oscar could also work i think.

Magic Lamps 11,692 Posted July 14, 2013 Share Posted July 14, 2013 I am pretty sure we have toplay 4-3-3 in the big games. Nowadays all big teams except Barca teams play 4-2-3-1. We only can beat them when we have one man more in midfield. Mata will be useless against Real, BAyern, City, Juve anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
