Nice thread title....

I would sell Almunia and Fabianski.

I would buy Lloris.

and I would sign Ryan Shawcross or similar young CB.

......................................Lloris
Eboue/Sagna....Gallas/Shawcross.....Vermaelen........Clichy

Walcott........Fabregas......Song.............Nasri/Rosicky

.........................van Persie....Arshavin

So only a few changes. And the change to 4-4-2. I'm not sure a striker would be needed because Bendtner will be a year older and a year better and probably a very reasonable EPL striker.

[damir]

it's too much to sell/buy all those player in same time,but let's play this 'manager game'!this is just for fun
sell -Vela eduardo Bendtner
-Denilson,Merida,Rosicky
-Almunia,Silvestre,Sagna,Fabianski,Djourou

buy-Loris,Frey or Green
-Mertesacker,Ozil,Krasic(CSKA),Higuain,Dzeko(I am risking to be criticized for that one thing we have in common),Negredo,Servet Cetin,Scott Parker,Yaya Toure,Canales,Jovetic...some of those guys would be nice to have,this aren't world's top transfers,we are hungry not for superstars but for any transfers and activity

[Curt.B]

Gourcuff! *Drools*

[cerbera]

Firstly I'd bring in some new nutritionists, new physios and a team counselor.

I'd sell Carlos Vela to a Spanish club because that's where his technique belongs. I'd replace him with Lukas Podolski for 12m.

Armand Traore would be moved to left midfield. Clichy would be sold to Real Madrid and I'd buy Urby Emanuelson for 6.5m and use him as my backup left back. Vermaelen would become my first choice left back. I'd also buy Servet Cetin for 10m.

I'd buy Tim Wiese for 14m. I'd sell Fabianski to whoever's stupid enough to take him. Almunia would be demoted to the understudy goalkeeper role.

With 5.5m I'm sure I could find a decent backup DM somewhere.

This would be my formation:
................Wiese
Eboue....Gallas....Cetin....Vermaelen
................Song
.....Nasri................Fabregas
Van Persie...Podolski......Rosicky

Bench: Almunia, Emanuelson, Sagna, Ramsey, Lansbury, Arshavin, Bendtner

There'd be new policies in the club too. The excessive partying would be out the door too. Players wouldn't be allowed to have sex after 5pm on the day before matchday. Anyone pictured excessively partying or drinking would fined a week's wages.

Cerbera,Cetin is like a rock,I have seen that guy,he was standing next to me at airport!he can put Drogba in the pocket for example
