its getting downright ridiculous. if he doesnt tart ferreira he will start bosingwa on the left. and it will be a disaster. for the life of me i cant figure out how bosingwa keeps getting starts. he is just atrocious at defending, especially anything in the air and he is just as awful going forward. for every good cross he hits there another 20 that are nowhere near a player. as for bertrand must have slept with avb's wife or something. cole's legs are about to fall off, yet avb refuses to give him rest. and raul getting run all year despite playing like crap. now we have no choice but to play him i guess with lamps and ramires out. its down to malouda or raul and both are terrible. i was so exciting about avb at the start of the year, but he is really really disappointing.
i know it will never happen but our lack of spark and creativity is so bad in the midfield and up front that i would love to see luiz moved to right mid while ramires is out. honestly he is probably our 2nd most creative player after mata. how sad is that? ivan, cahill, terry and cole can cover the back just fine. i guarantee you that luiz can have more of an impact in that role compared to raul.
how we are still sitting in 4th is beyond me.
AVB's obsession with Bosingwa is like Carlo's with Kalou. I actually won't mind seeing Kalou more at this point btw.
As for Luiz at midfield, I've always liked the idea, but he probably lacks the discipline to play DM. He would get sent off in no time. Our midfield is just sad right now. In just 2-3 years, we've gone from starting Lamps, Essien and Ballack to Malouda, Romeu and Meireles. It's like downgrading from Barca to Barca B.

Re: 2011
and my favorite from that midfield from several years ago... maka. hell, i'd even settle for deco about right now.
i wouldnt try to play luiz in that holding role. you are right, he would be a red card waiting to happen, but rather on that right side where he can bomb forward and also play some through balls to a starving torres. oh well, fantasy land. he's actually been really impressive in the back lately, which is great.
i agree about kalou. he drives me mad as regular starter, but as a squad player i like him. we have nobody else on the bench who has any pace. and for all his faults, he seems to always find the net. beats the hell out of bringing on lukaku as a wide player.
thank god arsenal sucks as bad as us.
