Who would you swap for luca

Malouda: I am hoping the incoming manager gets the best out of him cos when he is in mood he really adds a lot of flare to our attack and when he drifts out left (don't know y he keeps coming inside, probably to score) he creates a lot of goal scoring chances. imo we still need him in the team, all he needs is a big kick up his arsse

Well a very big kick then! It's not just how badly he's played, it's the fact that he's extremely selfish and puts in no effort for the team. For crying out loud he cane on as a sub in the last game and didn't even run! Somehow, people stick by him, but criticise Anelka, who has done better than him, to no end. If we give Spurs both of the French players, and offer 12M on top, that should do it

giving spurs malouda and anelka is very risky, if torres fails to score then we could be in trouble, even if we did get neyma and lukaku they may need time to gel. That leaves us with only sturridge, kalou and the ageing drogba up front

moreover I wouldn't our team to play against a spurs side with both malouda and anelka in form, might be a little too much for the aging terry and cole to swallow

we might be shooting ourself in the foot, they are not as harmless as joe cole. We don't need to make the same mistake twice, look what happened when we shipped out ballack etc we have the resources to hold on to any player we are likely to regret selling. imo only zirkov and benny should be sold from the front runners, we should hold on to anelka as a safety valve for torres

Anelka.

Mikel must leave. Plus kick out LeSulk.

First 11.

Cech

Cole
Terry
Luiz
van der Wiel

Essien
Lampard
Modric

Neymar
Torres
Sanchez

Bench

Turnbull
Ivanovic
Alex
Ramires
Adam
Zhirkov
Sturridge

Others.

Hilarious
Benayoun
McEachran
Bruma
Bertrand

So kick out... Kalou, Mikel, PVA (loan), Borini, Tore, Sala, Manciene, Drogba (if he wants to go) and Anelka.

was really impressed with the above till he dumps out josh for who i really hope is not charlie adam, drogba should be on that bench too, rotation mate

surely bertrand should replace zhirkov, rotation ie

cech

cole/bertrand/aziz deen conteh
terry/ chalobah
luiz, alex
van der Wiel /ivanovic

essien/mikel
ramires/modric
josh/lampard

neymar/aziz deen conte
torres/drogba
Sanchez/sturridge

Chalobah is a good prospect but not ready to be regularly rotated. Bruma or Rajkovic are. I like how someone else finally has the idea of rotating Josh and Lampard instead of going 40 million for a player we might not need. In strike Deen-Conteh isn't a winger and Kalou should be second choice winger..., while we only need one of Sanchez/Neymar/Aguero. Let's give Sturridge a chance
