I am certainly in favor of leaving the attack as it is and focusing in on the midfield. The latter is clearly the trouble spot and there is no reason to spend a lot of money for something we don't need. The midfield needs to be remodeled, not the frontline.

Yeah I tend to agree, and I have a feeling Capello likes that 4-4-2 a little too much. Pizarro certainly would add a lot to our attack, however I'm not sure if Capello is willing to trust Pizarro with the defensive duties called upon him in the center of the pitch. That's why he might instead...

Sounds good to me Mark. Chiellini, Tudor, and Kovac would be good enough to sure up the defense, while Zambrotta could be used to fill that RB slot instead of Zebina. I don't see why Zambro would not be able to make that switchover across the defense. Giannichedda and either Mozart or Gerrard...

Juninho would be great player to have as he would certainly solve our freekick and passing problems. However, Juninho is 30 and that makes him a bit old for such a big transfer.

Yeah I heard that Pizarro would stay in Udine if they make the CL. That is still not certain yet either way. Mozart would be a question mark but I know for certain he's better than Blasi.

Well if we wanted to find a partner for Emerson who would fit the straight 4 in midfield, I would be looking for players like Gerrard, Ballack, David Pizarro, and possibly Santos Mozart. Gerrard and Ballack would be extremely difficult to get and they will most likely stay where they are...

He's real if you want him to be. :D

Dude, that is not going to work Espectro. Riquelme needs a free role behind the strikers to flourish, basically having the whole team built around him. He is not that much of a tackler and does not like to come back to form a midfield shield in front of the defense. Capello likes to play with...

Same goes for Rosicky for that matter. But we must find a natural playmaker to replace Nedved though.

Well I guess Aimar would be better than nothing in midfield. Question is will Capello be willing to play a diamond in midfield or a 3-4-1-2 to suit Pablito's need for a free role behind the strikers. Aimar would certainly add that dimension to the team that we're missing: creativity and control.
