    How i want to see our CM next season...

    Current players
    Lucas
    Meireles
    Shelvey
    Spearing
    Gerrard

    Need to Sign
    a box to box, combative midfield destroyer.
    maybe...if possible a more attacking/creative mid.

    How we should play/set up.....

    Firstly - it can't really be answered, as it's not as black and white as saying....play 4-4-2 every game, gerrard and lucas in the middle etc....it doesn't work like that...we need to have different options for different situations....players rested/rotated/injured/suspended or formations and set up changed for different oppositions - and for that we need decent cover as well.

    Plus....moving away from centre mid, we need one maybe even two wide men. Which could have an effect on which centre mids get picked for which game....

    in an ideal world i'd want something like this as 'first' choice.....


    -----------lucas---------new cm---

    ----------------gerrard-------------

    suarez-------------------------new wide man

    -----------------carroll--------


    I'd see spearing primarly being squad back up/cover for when we are short

    Meireles to be used as either cover for gerrard, or when a more attacking option needed instead of lucas or the destroyer

    then Shelvey...well for me, ideal world is we'd send him on loan for a season and then sign a 'creative mid' say charlie adam.


    we'd then have options to try different things.......for example, say gerrard is injured, the midfield destroyer is suspended and meireles is playing **** - we could play Adam, Lucas and spearing - or maybe just adam and lucas, and play two 'wingers' depended on who we sign....
    I'd agree with all that.

    Re: Shelvey I'd also be tempted to send him and a number of other youngsters out on loan, preferably to other Premiership clubs. The lack of Europa League football and hopefully the signing of new players in the summer will limit the opportunities of the likes of Shelvey, Wilson, Pacheco to league cup games and a few minutes from the bench. I think those three in particular need games next season.
    The only gracious way to accept an insult is to ignore it; if you can't ignore it, top it; if you can't top it, laugh at it; if you can't laugh at it, it's probably deserved.

          ...and maybe still Aqualani! Is that 18 midfielders at the club?


          I'm so excited. And I just cant hide it. I'm about to loose control and I think I like it.
