OK, I've already told you that you have the power: do the right thing!

I'm just suggesting some players to consider:

Midfielders:
Krasić
Pjanić
Scholes

Forwards:
Hulk
Inzaghi
Coulibaly
Müller
Falcao
Domínguez

But all the considerations about teams that are already through etc.
are up to you! ;)

When the going gets tough, the tough get going. And the others
suddenly run away from the responsibility of making tough decisions.

We're dropping Torres. He's not making the trip to Hungary, and he's
almost certain to miss the next game as well since Liverpool will most
likely be eliminated by then, and he's hurt.

Then we have a problem with Lisandro and Luis Fabiano. Their teams are
qualified already, will they get a lot of playing time? Lyon is still
fighting for first place, but Sevillla has first place almost locked
up already.

Still haven't decided who to with instead.

No, I'm retiring myself in the éminence grise role. :P

But I'm sure that you *cough* Luis Fabiano out *cough* have all the
qualities *cough* Hulk in *cough* to decide by yourself!

I'm inclined to go with Dominguez.

Just checked: Luis Fabiano has even played in Sevilla's Copa del Rey match
against Ciudad de Lorqui. This could mean either that the Sevilla coach
doesn't believe in rotating his players, or that he's due a break. Porto has
a home match against Chelsea. They'll probably take it seriously, but it is
against Chelsea...

In any case, I'd go with Farcao (I'd prefer Paulo Robberto, but Radamel will
do) ahead of Hulk.

I would go with:
Lisandro out, Falcao in
Torres out, Dominguez in


And our initial lineup would be:

Vidic'-Vermaelen-Grosso
Kaka`-Dzagoev-Schweinsteiger-Arshavin
Dominguez-Luis Fabiano-Falcao

Subs:
F�bio Aur�lio-Vargas-Amauri


Who do we make captain?

Your argument against Porto should disqualify Falcao... I don't know.
Dominguez?

(Please make everything official, so nobody will be able to steal our
_priceless_ knowledge about world football!)

Falcao scores more than Hulk. Schweinsteiger the captain. Official. We can
change captains at half-time.

Vidic'-Vermaelen-Grosso
Kaka`-Dzagoev-Schweinsteiger(C)-Arshavin

Please Gourcuff off, Gerrard on and captain.
Thanks.

Oh yes, I meant that your argument disqualifies Falcao _as captain_,
not _as signing_.

> Schweinsteiger  the captain.

Interesting, I like it. We have to trigger this miracle. We need faith
and bravery. And it won't happen.

Not a chance in hell. Dominguez has already three total shots, but no goals
yet.
We'll be lucky to get 2 goals total in between now and matchday 6.

The nice thing is that the two teams behind us play each other. We'll
remember this tournament as "that time when we weren't last".

Go Dominguez!
