This isnt going to be an easy task.
Let me fill you in on our new squad.
In Del Horno - Has improved with each game. Looks like he has been playing alongside Terry and Gallas for years, he doesnt speak a word of English but has top communication on the pitch. His left foot is as good as Beckhams right and he delivers quality balls into the box. He moves up the pitch when needed and is solid and spot on with his tackles.
In Essien - This boy is top top quality. I can see why we paid over the odds for him. IMO opinion and my reading of this player I will say that he will go on to be one of the most influential players in the EPL this season. He is strong like the hulk and fast like the road runner. He is all over the pitch, is a tremendous athlete and can go box to box in no time. He has a fierce shot, is spot on with his movement on and off the ball, has a good range of passing (like Lampard, Alonso) and gives our MF a lot of stability. Watch out for Essien!
In Phillips - Dont think I need to say much about him as everyone has seen what he did at City.
In Crespo - The only constant World Class striker in the EPL . A top drawer goal at Wigan, he has a lot to prove and loves the European Stage.
In Drogba - I say this because this season we are seeing a new Drogba. He is more involved in the game and will create a lot of havoc in defensis.
---
Of your players there is
Sisoko - Who I rate and will be stiff competition.
Zenden - who wont get past Ferrera - No chance.
Garcia - Who wont get past Del Horno - No Chance
Fernando or Crouch or Cisse - Gallas has kept Henry quiet, he will surely handle these 2. I rate Gallas as the best defender at CFC and easily one of the top3 in the world.
Gerrard Alonso - Lampard Essien .... will be an interesting battle.
I dont see any other threat from you, I firmly believe we will win at home and we 'can' win at Anfield.
Cheers
