Hard to say it's the goallies 'job' - better if he concentrates on stopping goals...

Didier Drogba.... FL's formations are based on his experience as a player, Chelsea, mainly 4-3-3

Can't leave it all to Bidwell as he probably won't be in the team! We need some savvy in front of the CBs

Also, put Travis alongside Grimes and we have solid protection from midfield for the back four. A new LB (Miguel Angel Brau), maybe MVE at RB or Kesler-Hayden and the back four and midfield 3 led by Rudoni now looks like it's made in Lampard's image. 2 Solid Wingers with 2 backups and a really...
