    SO, Tevez and Rooney up front vs. Babel, Kuyt and Torres.

    Wat is the better strike force?

    Yea i say Kuyt Babel (he'll probably play on the left for us) and torres. Rooney is a bit inconsistant but we dont know wat Torres and Babel are going to bring to us.

    On talent you'd have to say Babel, Torres and Kuyt but none of them have played together under Benitez so they might not turn out as good, and Tevez hasn't played with Wayne or under SAF so who knows.

    You just love the Dutch [​IMG] That's the only reason you made this thread, so you could talk about them, but don't worry, they're good players so it's ok.

    Heres a little table I drew up following last seasons statistics. The reason Ronaldo is here is because Babel is more of a winger than a striker.

    Just because they've scored goals it doesn't mean they're not good players, like Tevez and Torres, they aren't really out and out strikers but they have their scoring days sometimes and then the days where they set up goals and give pinpoint passes all game and both of these qualities are good to have especially when playing for Man Utd or Liverpool.

    The objective of a striker is to score, i've presented the stats and you can see for yourself who is better.

    With the service from midfield - Rooney + Tevez.

    Im going to say United have the stronger team, Ronaldo can score 15 goals a season as can rooney. Tevez can be leathal with the right ammount of appearance roughly 25 goals a season.... Babel is young but is good but I dont think he will have a major impact on the Premiership on his first year and Dirk Kuyt seems to be pretty decent and since there alot of spanish at Liverpool I reckon Torres will settle nicely although Im still going for United.

    I'm going to have to say Da Silva and Van Persie, Contraversial? Maybe but Van Perise had more goals the Ronaldo last season up untill the point he was injured and this season he's gonna be back with a vengance, Da Silva possibly the new Henry, Remember when Wenger bought Henry for about 8 mill at the age of early 20's. Same as Da Silva[​IMG][​IMG][​IMG]

    thats what i was thinking.

    What if Shevchenko regains his form from AC milan?
    What if Kalou starts playing like he did at feynoord?

    Shevchnko, NIce joke wolf,

    Kalou actually does have bags of potential in him which he might show this season[​IMG]

    The guy already hit some late form last season and I think people exaggerate his poor season... Anyway everyone knows what Sheva can do, the question is if he adapts and does it. He had played in Italy his whole life previously.

    Kalou definitely has talent and if Sheva can get back to how he was with Drogba playing as well as he did last season and then Ballack, Lampard and any other midfielders they have play well too, Chelsea will be a force again. They need to get rid of John Obi Mikel though, he sucks and I hate him. How is Pizzaro going to fit in? Will he play an attacking midfield role, because he is a good striker and he's only 28 so he's got plenty left in him.

    And when Chelsea were a force a couple of years ago, it didn't stop the Boro beating them 3-0, remember that Wolf? Because I know I do [​IMG]
