liomessi1324Here is my starting XI for Spain for Euro 2012.It was between this and switching Fabregas with Xavi and bringing in Busquets.I chose this because it is more attacking.Maybe for games against Germany,Portugal etc,we can start Busquets.

EL NINO#9what about mata and dont you think ramos would be better if u swapped him with pique?since he is more of a right back but arbeloas in his space.

JimmyGuitaristDel Bosque said “If I was reincarnated as a footballer, I would like to be like Busquets.” Pep said something similar. He's one of the most important players for club & country. Alonso isn't as tactically astute.

G.K.There is not a hope in hell of Alonso playing leading to Busquets' not starting.

If one is dropped it will be Xavi.

liomessi1324Well look at that Del Bosque dropped Torres,put Fabregas to strike and put Busquets in midfield against Italy.

EL NINO#9so in other words he took out striker to put a midfielder???who ever del bosque is,he isnt that smart.

mojojojo101Busquets was always going to start, the real choices in my opinion was between Torres vs. Fabregas, as well as Silva vs. Pedro.

Del Bosque has tried this set up before, the problem is it hasn't worked. He is trying to recreate the Barca false-9 system but what he's failed to realise is Fabregas=/=Messi, they are completely different players not to mention a false-9 just hasn't worked at international level.

JimmyGuitarist
This is what I'd play if Del Bosque wants to use a false-nine. You need atleast one winger who's willing to make off-the-ball runs, and who doesn't always go really close to the ball carrier. Using Silva & Iniesta one the wing makes for no width at all. I'd play Silva merely for his creativity, but Alba would have a job to do bombing up & down the LW.

liomessi1324@ELNINO#9 Did you watch the game,did you see that when ramos is playing as a cb he plays on the left?
@mojojo101 I agree,i think even though Torres finshing was poor he should of started because if he had gotten those chances throughout the whole game he would of scored.
@JimmyGuitarist Good lineup.If Del Bosque wants to wants to play without a striker this should definitely be the lineup.
