Chelsea – Probable starting line-up for the season 2011/2012 (Part 3)
The second last fixture against Manchester United was a must-win match for http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786. In case they won the game, they would top the table with a better goal difference. However, Sir Alex Ferguson took no chances as both the teams played their best players.
Sir Alex Ferguson was able to triumph that night as Manchester United won the match 2-1with Javier “Chicharito” Hernandez scoring and the captain http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Nemanja-Vidic-c27550 putting his name on the goal scoring charts as well. On the other hand, Frank Lampard pulled a
goal back in the second half. However, the Blues could not really capitalize on the goal provided by the English midfielder.
With Ancelotti getting sacked, the Porto manager Andres Villas Boas became in charge of Chelsea. Andres Villas Boas had a phenomenal season in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Portugal-c2984 as he helped Porto win the Portuguese League and also the Europa League. Porto won the league by a mile
and they were being hailed as one of the best sides in Europe.
Just like Jose Mourinho, Villas Boas joined Chelsea and he has not made a single move for a new player at the moment. He has introduced the benched http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Liverpool-c39809 man plays on the right flank. Flourent Malouda
featured on the left flank while Fernando Torres replaces Didier Drogba as a super sub in a 4-3-3 formation.
The midfielder is crowded with players who can tackle the ball well. Michael Essien will still feature as a centre midfielder but for now Ramires has taken his position since he has suffered from an injury. John Obi Mikel plays in the holding midfield role
while Frank Lampard still plays as an attacking midfielder.
The back four haven’t changed at all. Ivanovic plays in his favourite right back position and Andres Villas Boas is counting on the centre back partnership of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Arsenal-c38429 full back Ashley Cole plays in
the left back position.

In a traditional 4-3-3 formation, Andres Villas Boas has a lot of players to replace the ones on the pitch. http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alex-c4752 can play in the centre back position as well. Bosingwa is the only
left back replacement for http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ashley-Cole-c6809.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ramires-c30523 can also feature in the right attacking
midfield position while http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Yuri-Zhirkov-c37683 can play on the left flank and replace Flourent Malouda.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Frank-Lampard-c14097 is Gael Kakuta – a young player coming from the Chelsea academy.
Chelsea are going to be quite strong the next season and with the brain of Andres Villas Boas behind them, they will be definitely a side to look out for. Can Chelsea do wonders the next season? Well, that is a question only time can answer but they definitely
look to be a promising side.
