  2. Rooney isn't a midfielder <doh>

    Not sure Sterling counts as a midfielder, he's played as part of the attack for best part of a year <laugh>

    Versatile, 4-3-3 becomes 4-5-1 when defending

  5. In which case, it should be about the trio in the middle of the 433

    If Mourinho doesn't win the title with the squad that he has, he should be shot.

    I'm predicting City will win the title again- fewer draws! <whistle>

    City wins hands down for me with Chelsea a close 2nd.

    If Sterling is out so are Hazard and Willian and definitely Sanchez and Rooney

    edit: Januzaj too but whatever he's **** if they want to count him let them

    ... I agree... they're more attacking players. Not to say they don't help out in midfield in today's fluid games- but they're primarily attackers not midfielders.

    I'd put us ahead of Chelsea if Oscar and Willian continue their current crap form

    Januzaj is ****? Outstanding. Are his "stats" not very good yet on Championship Manager?! I bet the proper red Scousers are proud to have something like you in their ranks!

  13. Comparing the players they listed:

    1) Man City
    2) Arsenal
    3) Chelsea
    4) Liverpool
    5) Man Utd (here comes the accusations)


    However, I think when eliminating the players that shouldn't be in there (leaving players that could play in the middle of a 433):

    1) ARSENAL- Ozil, Ramsey, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Wilshere

    2) MAN CITY - Toure, Fernandinho, Fernando

    3) CHELSEA - Oscar, Fabregas, Matic

    4) LIVERPOOL - Lallana, Coutinho, Henderson, Gerrard

    5) MAN UTD - Herrera, Fellaini


    So basically, I'd swap Arsenal and Man City around <laugh>

    He's not ****... but he'd be good loaned to a Championship team trying to get promoted. He'll be very good in a few years and be a real asset. He's not the completed article yet- bit like our Ibe, has some brilliant attributes but still a bit rough around the edges and has faults, will improve with maturity and age.

    Silva & Nasri can play centrally.

    Chelsea have seemed to miss of Mikel & Ramires from the lists?

    United seem to have missed Fletcher & Carrick from the list?

    Arsenal are missing Flamini, Cazorla.

    we're missing Allen & Lucas & Can.

    Too generous. Ramsey is great, Ozil has done nothing yet in the PL, Wilshere and Oxlade-Chamberlain have gone completely off the boil.

    Poorly constructed article. They missed out epic Allen! A 1 man midfield of Joe Allen would be the best in the league.

    Other wise City probably get this one.

    This is also spam by the way. Look at the username and web address. We dont want to see this! But at least your joining in.
