I think the starting 11 will be:

Gomes

Zokora, Dawson, Woodgate, Ekotto

Bentley, Jenas, Modric, Bale

Bent, Berbatov

A strong starting 11 for an away game with the option of changes in formation. I know a lot of you will be up in arms that I can't see a starting place for Gio but I think he wil see more home starts than away this season and I'm sure we will see him in the second half, whatever the score. As for Ekotto?, I have a good feeling about him this season, I think he has been a big positive for us pre season.

Your opinions?

You can't see Dos Santos starting I surely can and I bet he will play later on as he should and deserves it.

And I dont thinkthe signing are ccomplete with the likeliness of Berbatov leaving then once hehas gone we willmost likely sign Arshavin.

I dont know why foreign coaches always ruin our players creativity and put them on defensive midfielder. Boban was a fantastic player and he had to play defensive midfielder in Milan and is the same with Modrić. Luka is as good defensive midfielder but it is ten times better when when he plays nearer goal.If Ramos wanted defensive midfielder is supposed to buy another and not Modrić.Modric is better and of Dos santos and of Bentley but it now will not be able to show that!!!
