Agent_LewisIt's more like a 4-4-2 with a diamond midfield, with Crespo finally getting a start up front with Ibrahimovic, allowing Figo to be the playmaker and Muntari to make great runs out on the wing. Zanetti holds in front of the back 4.

GeorgieWasTheBestI didn't know Figo was still going on. Isn't he too old now?
You surely don't want Vieira as left wing, he was a defensive mid when I last checked.

Agent_LewisFigo still has it in him. Now, with Vieira - I'll swap him with Mancini. I'll make him earn his pay packet.

Robert O'CarlosDon't know if you've got your left to right upside down, m8. You have the southpaws (Muntari and Maxwell) on the right hand side and vice versa.
;-)
Mancini isn't good enough defensively and would be wasted on one wing of a midfield diamond. Not sure Inter have the players for this formation.

Agent_LewisI hadn't realized Maxwell and Muntari were like me - but then again, left handed people tend to do some things backwards at one point or another. Oh well, back to the drawing board.

Robert O'CarlosNo need, m8. Swap Maicon (right sided) and Maxwell (left sided) and get your wide midfielders to sit in a bit. I always like to see a left footer playing on the right coming infield and vice versa. As long as Maicon and Maxwell were on their own sides, it would encourage them to overlap with the midfield playing narrower. Stankovic, Zanetti and Muntari for me in midfield. And I'd go for Mancini (left), Ibrahimovic (centre) and Quaresma (right) as a front 3.

Agent_LewisSounds good. By the way, have you seen this?

If this is true, and Jose Mourinho pulls this off, Mancini might be seated on the bench for quite a long tme.

Robert O'CarlosIt's silly season with the transfer window coming up. We'll get a lot of speculative stories like this. Can't really see this one happening.
For arguments sake, if it did happen it would be at the expense of Quaresma for me.
