Hm, this is shaping up to be one great squad (although the defence still worries me)!

A Few Notes
-Perea and Fabiano Eller can sub for each other in that centre-back role (I still think one of them should make way for a more solid centre-back). I’d like to see Pablo in a starting 11 position.

-Luis Garcia, still nursing that injury, is the perfect player to come off the bench. Proven talent and always gives it his all.

-Between Luccin and Maniche, I’d give Maniche a starting position. He’s looked fairly good, so far, in pre-season.

-Jurado, on the bench.

-Brasilian midfielder Cleber Santana…not sure about him, but I won’t judge him until I see him on the pitch.

-Mista and Braulio (if he stays) to be used as back-up strikers.

-Perhaps Pernia and Ze Castro will stay? It’s still unclear at this point. Same goes for Diego Costa.
