Poulsen is interesting because i reckon he would be the more suitable partner for marchisio more so than momo and melo.

lets see how pre-season goes, maybe one of the 3 will prove themselves more to del neri. im hoping it is momo though.

ah yeah...wish we could have got candreva for a cheaper price, i think he had a lot of potential, nonetheless, a winger, centre back, full back and striker to come according to del neri.

Missing out on Candreva is disappointing.

The guy has some real potential, he would have been a much better acquisition than Pepe.
yeah but we only loaned out pepe with the option to buy, but then again, with what we paid for martinez, possibly a player we didnt need, we could have got candreva who could have been more useful across various areas in midfield.

Candreva doesn't fit in the glorious straight 4-4-2 system that must be used at all times. He who doesn't deploy the straight 4-4-2 shall feel the wrath of Capello's constipation.

We actually do need Martinez since we are playing a 4-4-2, we need wingers wether they are bench players or starters, you never know when Injuries come up.
4-4-2 is a formation that is very difficult to move players around in, especially since Del Neri wants to play strikers such as Trezeguet and Amauri who depend on crosses + we wouldn't want Del Neri to change tactics and formations when he's out of wingers since we have a thing for injuries.

I agree on keeping Candreva though, too bad, he was fantastic.

yes we need wingers but we are not short of them...it is not like Martinez is any better than what we have available for that left side...Giovinco is better in my opinion, pepe can play both sides, de ceglie looks very capable when playing that LW role without all the defensive duties. Some younger players could be options in Pasquato and even Iago.

Candreva on the other hand is more versitile and could of maybe been an alternative to marchisio or even in an advanced role.

In the 2008-09 our midfield was very solid when Marchisio played with Momo. This is our best central pairing. There is a problem with having both Poulsen and Melo as they both cannot sit on the bench. Poulsen has played right back and also CB before.

Momo is better then Melo and Poulsen so we must sell one of them.

Forza Momo your are the best destroyer in italian football and people fear you!

problem we have is that recent history shows that momo and marchisio tend to get injured a lot, so we need quality back up. With names like Ekdal going to bologna, Marrone still being young, and no one being rumoured to join that plays central, i think bnoth melo and poulsen will be kept at the club.

@M.G. marrone is going to be loaned out to siena(i guess after the europa preliminaries).given the fact that ekdal is on his way out to bologna our central midfielders so far are melo momo poulsen marcopolisio and (tiago)

if that's the case i'd definitely keep candreva...and sell tiago.

Did we sign a new CM?

i thought tiago was already sold outright?? we still have him?

Question - With Momo and Marchisio's history with injuries, and melo performances last season, do we need more than 4 players to play in that central midfield?
