What is our strongest 11 these days?
Nani must surely remain on the right until Valencia grows a set of balls and you've got to acknowledge Berbatov's current form so i'd move Rooney to left forward.
My personal choice: VDS Rafael-Rio-Vidic-Evra Fletcher-Carrick-Scholes Nani-Berbatov-Rooney. Do you think that restricts Rooney? For me hes far too complete a player to just use as a centre forward. He's shown in the past he can play from left forward, link the midfield with attack, still get in the box and score goals. |

I dont get the Valencia stick He's been very good for us.
I've always championed Berbs but last season a front 3 of Vallers, Nani and Rooney was obviously our best formation.But how can you now say (even the Berba haters) that Berbs doesn't warrant a first team place. I'd have VDS Rafa Vidic Rio (when fit) Evra Vallers Scholes/Giggs/Carrick (Happy with any tbh) Fletch Nani Rooney Berbs |

Valencia needs to improve on what was a good debut season last year, but he already offers a lot. The thing I like about him is that while on his day he can make a fantastic contribution to the attack, when that doesn't happen what you get with him as a minimum is excellent defensive contributions. I doubt he'd have allowed the play to build up from the left for Arteta's goal half as easily as Fletcher and Neville did. It was a frustratingly half-arsed effort from the pair of them. |

villa, messi, pedro (last time it was ibramovich) and a midfield of xavi, iniesta, mascherano (last time it was toure/busquets) Chelsea always play a 4-5-1 or a 4-3-3 drogba, malouda, essien, ramires, lampard will always play. The only change will be anelka or sturridge we have a very unsettled line up. |

Valencia will never be that player we all want (i.e dynamic going forward etc)
But hes really good at what he does, getting crosses in and being a really good team player We just lack that bit of guile(sp?) and invention in the middle to compensate for Valencia's short comings Anyways back on topic our strongest starting 11 is; VDS Evra Rio/Evans Vidic Da Silva/Nevs Fletch Carrick/Park Scholes/Anderson Rooney Berbs Nani/Valencia Obviously theyll be some changes depending on formation |
