Using attacking full-backs with the highly rated Angel Rangel and Valon Behrami, defensive midfielder Robert Kovac drops in to the defence in order to make up the numbers.

Inverted wingers are used with the talented Barrera and Stanislas playing on the opposite sides to the ones which they are used to, allowing them to cut inside and shoot on their stronger feet.

Carlton Cole plays in a "false nine" role, dragging the markers with him and allowing Barrera or Stanislas to take advantage in the gap which has been created.

Thoughts?
