two players fighting for every position

[Dessy]

Agreed..... and I'm sure we've got plenty of young legs (with our recent buying spate) that could be blooded at some point and do a job against those SMALLER clubs!

As Chelsea have found, it's not always easy to keep two demanding players happy when they're fighting for the same position.

As the four players we have at CM could quite easily command first team places at other top clubs (or in Sissokos case, just decent clubs), it might become a problem.

We shall see.

JM couldnt find a place at West Ham. I bet you Momo will walk into the West Ham side. I also didnt notice any other clubs rushing to sign JM.

Let JM prove himself in the EPL before we start placing him ahead of Momo in the pecking order

The list of failed South American "stars" in the EPL is a Long one. Not many are able to adapt to different style of play

[mikeg]

Will it though mean the end for Zenden?

hopefully, plus i reckon we could command a fee for zenden, i know we got him for nothing but he is in contract with us now we could manage to squeeze some sucker out of half a million im sure

you say that but what players are you referring too exactly? i dont hear anybody from chelsea whinging, not evern wright phillips, its just the media

[hockin_monster]

mascherano's arrival does not mean the end for either sissoko or alonso

Hope fully it'll mean the end for Zenden.

Erm the list of south Americans is not actually very long, hardly any have ever played in the prem to make a long list.

had zenden ever had a beginning?

We could have far worse back up.

Gallas was a big Fwank hasnt signed a renewal. Neither has Terry as far as I can remember. The players are not moaning, but they are not renewing their contracts either. That shows that they are not happy or the contracts are not BIG enough

[Fierce]

Starters (if Masher is as good for us as he was for Argentina)

Alonso Masher
Gerrard

With Momo on the bench.

Of course not all 3 will have to play week in week out, we've already seen how much Benitez values rotation. Having Masher, who by all accounts is a combination of Alonso and Momo, gives Rafa his possibiliteeeeeeeeees

[thesilverfoxlfc]

Thats what he wanted, 2 players for 1 position that will hopefully get the best out of the players, unless they start moaning or one of the players cant be pudged from the team and the other becomes restless on the subs bench

Same with Ukrainians!! Shevchenko....Rebrov.....need I say more.....what about this Voronin?

The list is very long. Veron, Heinze, Forlan, Tevez, Baptiste are the obvious ones that have all failed to convince or secure 1st team places. The only one currently doing well is Gilberto from Arsenal

And I didnt even mention one of our South Americans, who I will give at least a season to show what they can do.

Heinze is very good he has been very unlucky with injuries
Forlan was just never that good a player anyway
Tevez has hardly played and is in his first season
Baptiste is in his first season here and has at times looked very good
Veron was played completely out of position and still has a champions medal.
