Neymar

@MM

Don't think Neymar is effective from the right since he would have to go around the fullback, which means him having to cross which is not what he's known for. From his favoured left side, he's more threatning and has more options. Either from the left or as a supporting striker for Neymar (you don't buy a huge talent like him for big money and not play him where he's at his best).

Is he any good at cutting in and causing panic a la Robben?

Something like

---------------Torres--------------

Neymar--Sanchez--Sturridge

-------Essien----Ramires-----

Cole------JT----Luiz------VDW

---------------Cech----------------

Malouda----------Drogba-------Kalou------

-------------Lamps---Benayoun--------------

----------------------Mikel-----------------------

PVA--------Alex--------Ivanovic----Ferreira

--------------------Cech--------------------------

would be interesting

---------------Torres--------------

Neymar--Aguero--Sturridge

-------Essien----Ramires-----

Cole------JT----Luiz------VDW

---------------Cech----------------

I'd swap Pastore for Essien though .

Quality Starting Eleven dude! One little addition might be to use McEachran and Ramires in a rotation system, just so McEachran gets some opportunities, whilst using Essien in either a holding role, or a central midfield engine. I think Essien works notoriously well in both senses, which is why selling Essien in the summer is a BIG NO!! I don't care how poor Essien has been the season just gone. Essien is a hugely important asset to this team, we musn't let him go!

Mean line-up, though that'd mean Agüero, Neymar and Sturr would have to drop to midfield?

Maybe we should just keep this squad and add Beckham and Nesta add to "experience"

Aguero would play off of Torres, then Neymar and Sturridge would have to play more out wide, but cut inside whenever they can. =)

I see what you did there.

I do like that idea!! Very "imaginative" shall we say?!

From what I've seen, he is. Though not on his level (yet) of course.

Jesus, odds everywhere.

[- 25 - 167]

Lmao.

I know it's The Sun but hey at least it's new news. And I honestly wouldn't be surprised if we got him for around 25 million despite him rejecting us last year.. if he wants to leave and says it publicly... then yayyy!

[ZanSnake 1,211]

23 million!

Good price, IF true

[LDN Blue 7,903]

F*ck The Sun.

Santos will milk us for every penny. Don't be surprised if you hear £30million+
