samadrianceAurelio-Lucas-Gerrard-Meireles continue with their very successful midfield "box" from Stoke, but Kyrgiakos is removed in favor of Suarez, with Suarez tasked with occupying Bosingwa and Meireles with covering Cole's runs from midfield. I'm not sure this would be any better than the (much more likely) 4-3-3, but it would allow us to retain possession very well, and as long as Meireles doesn't tire too quickly in this "shuttler" role, he's shown he can do a very good job against Cole once already this year, and would still be able to affect things in the middle.
