Henrique 9,133 Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 Carlo wont use Drogba and Torres together. Drogba will be released in the summer, and now will go to the bench.Anelka - Torres - Malouda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidEU 2,023 Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 I'd love to see Josh behind Drogba and Torres at home to Reading if we get through. Just saying.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madmax 9,219 Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 Can't imagine Torres or Drogba on the wing. And out of the two Drogba more likelier to be benched. So considering Carlo's fondness for the diamond, maybe it will be a return to that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kez 2,727 Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 Nothing but a 4-4-2How can you not use these 2 together in the same team? Will be the most feared strike partnership in Europe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kez 2,727 Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 IF Drogba works with him True we obviously need the Drogba we all know & love, he needs to see this as an opportunity to shine with Torres. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LDN Blue 7,903 Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 why have u become so negative? Lol this is only the first time I've said something like this.I believe there are 2 Drogba's we can see.The same Drogba who became a superstar after Shevchenko arrived in 2007, showing why he was the first choiceA Drogba that now becomes whiny and sulky because he is no longer the prize striker thus not performing properly.We did have that hypothesis with Anelka though so..

ZanSnake 1,211 Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 4-4-1-1Drogba/Anelka hanging back of Torres would be a good option as it could give him more room up-front and Drogba's lack of pace, that he has shown lately, wouldn't be an issue. Or otherwise, the 4-4-2 diamond is the most likeliest option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milllz 43 Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 the only problem with the diamond is lampard, so if we can get lampard playing in it then its sorted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milan 17,993 Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 the only problem with the diamond is lampard, so if we can get lampard playing in it then its sorted That's a very good point. Last year, when we played diamond, he was completely lost, not playing well, not scoring. I really do hope Carlo will handle it somehow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spuz 143 Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 Can't we just play 442 without it being a diamond. Knowing Carlo he'll stick Torres out wide. I'm hoping for a 442 anyway,I have been for months since we entered our 'bad moment.' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilson 358 Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 Drogba and Torres should play together. Would be stupid for them not to! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miguelito 459 Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 we could either play the diamond or use ramires on the right wing in a regular 4-4-2. benayoun can play there also once he comes back. it would be mad not to play 2 of the top strikers in the world and to see that partnership. and it can help both of them with a little rest if one of them needs one then we can still play our 4-3-3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magic weeds 446 Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Carlo must be busy searching for his old diamond tactic books that were thrown away last year after the Fulham game at Stamford Bridge. C´mon Carlo, show us what you got. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
