Yeah I guess you're right. Moggi is unable to accept free transfers..

So I assume you would rather have Blasi and Giannichedda in midfield? Hahaha, that is indeed a joke.

Well, each to his own I guess. However, with Nedved's form this season, you could stick Kovac out on the left wing and he would create just as much as this elderly Pavel.

What I think would happen is Ballack would take a spot on the left side of midfield, and like he does for Germany he would sometimes roam out towards the left flank and then cut in towards the center where he could use his blistering shot. Very similar to how Nedved used to cut in towards the...

Essien doesn't play right wing for Chelsea...he hovers around the right side of the pitch and even comes back parallel with Makelele sometimes. Either Duff or Robben stays on the flank most of the time, and Lampard usually is the one supporting the attack most often. With Ballack, Vieira, and...

lol, people need to start watching some football.

Well that's true, however even if we just used Ballack and Emerson in rotation that would be awesome as well...finally true depth in central midfield. And considering Ballack is still 28 he would essentially take over for Emerson within the next couple years. But fielding those three in...

Or this for that matter: Buffon Zambrotta - Thuram - Cannavaro - Chiellini Vieira - Emerson - Ballack Camoranesi - Ibrahimovic Trezeguet Or perhaps this, however I doubt it: Buffon Gallas - Thuram - Cannavaro Camoranesi - Vieira - Emerson - Zambrotta Ballack Trezeguet - Ibrahimovic

But why is that a concern? Ballack can fit into a number of roles, including perhaps a spot on the left flank. We could even use three players straight across in midfield a la Mourinho's Chelsea. I mean it's not like we are spending millions and millions of pounds on this player..

You really think Capello will use the 4-3-1-2? He barely even used that formation with Totti and Roma..

Yep, nobody has a clue about what sort of player Ballack is except for Burke and a couple others. Emerson would be the holding midfielder for Juventus, Vieira and Ballack would roam forward more and support the attack. If we play with four in midfield Ballack would take a role next to Emerson...

With Real Madrid's current situation, Ballack would have to be quite an idiot to accept a transfer there. He would not even be guaranteed a starting spot for Real and with their glut of attacking players he would only be fielded as a holding midfielder which he might not exactly like. For...

How did you come to that conclusion? Doesn't make any sense...Vieira would just be the holding midfielder like Emerson is right now and Ballack would venture forward a bit more. Why would that not work?
