It would mean Dzeko playing wide right wouldn't it? I'd be surprised tbh. Although fuck knows - he seems to have decided Jo's a wide player.

I think he'll play two up top at home, but I really can't see him doing it at the swamp. He'll be looking for the draw again imo.


Dzeko the target man up front and Tevez and Silva running the channels. Tevez would be fucking lethal doing this too - against Arsenal he was dropping deep and picking up the ball, but because there was no-one ahead of him the center backs could come with him and he'd be crowded out. With Dzeko sitting on the center backs high up the pitch, Tevez could do some real damagecoming from deep (hur hur etc)

The movement of Silva and Tevez with the physical presence and danger of Dzeko is enough to scare the shit out of most back fours tbh.
I can't wait:approve:

hang on, if balotelli is injured for a fortnight, we won't dispose of rsc? has he even made the bench when fit this season, any appearances?

does RSC exist, or is he, like God, a figment of a fevered imagination and product of blind hope that we have more than one fit striker?

i can see the 4 3 3 at home staying with a first choice front three of silva, dzeko and tevez

away from home , prolly rotate tevez and dzeko with one up front

has he actually got afucking visa yet or not

the person that deals with this for the club must be a fucking 'tard as it always seems to be us that get caught out by the visa

I'm quite capeable of confusing myself without Darlo getting involved...

That home formation will never happen. It's more;

..............gk

rb........cb............cb............lb

.............cm.....cm....cm

alm..................................arm

...................stkr

With maybe one of the cm's (Yaya) playing a bit further forward than the other 2.

Exactly, put Tevez's name in for Winger/Striker and Dzeko's in for Striker and you'll have our best team I reckon.

It's all academic as we'll never have everyone available and fit, but just for arguement's sake.
