david1993with the signing of meiriless 1 thing changed drop oriol romeu and put ramieres their nd put meirless were ramieres was this,


torres is the vocal point of attack nd let mata nd sturridge have a free role which will be perfect them for them and they add wit and trickery and able to play the pass that is need for torres to score goals.

now the midfiled is complete unfortunatly no modric but meirless can add quick passin and speed

mojojojo101I think Chelsea wil struggle to score goals this year if Torres and Drogba don't return to thier best and learn to play together (be that in the starting 11 or as part of the squad).

They still lack, with the exception of Mata and McEachran (who isn't going to start every game), creativity from midfield. Lampard, Miereles, Ramires are all good players but all fit more into the 'runner' description than 'playmaker'.

United have also been accused of lacking creativity from the middle of the park, however the advantage United have over Chelsea is out wide, I personally just don't see Kalou and Malouda producing the same number of assists/goal threat as Nani and Young.

Don't get me wrong, Chelsea will still be a pretty solid bet for a top 4 finish and will definatley be challenging in cup competitions I just think they may struggle when up against a team who is strong, disciplined and organised.
