So you think that Pato and Ibra can become more compatible then last year?
Also, do you think Mexes will get more games then Nesta?

Mexes will play more I think, but Nesta will be selected for all the big games (if fit) I imagine.

i can't see Mexes being happy with that, management did not address this. You can't have 3 starting CBs in a 4-3-1-2. That's like telling both of your girlfriends you'll leave the other.

He wasn't forced to sign the contract. If it happens that he is #3 and basically plays when Nesta can't, he doesn't really have a right to complain.

It will only be in his first season. After coming season, he will most likely partner with Thiago Silva. I don't see a problem in that. Also, Mexes still is recovering in the beginning. I think he is pleased enough with rotation in first season.

Unless proven differently, Thiago Silva and Nesta to partner in central defense, and Robinho and Ibrahimovic in attack. They showed to be the best, and it's up to Mexes and Pato to show why they need to start, the others did already.

i agree well to be fair Thiago & Alessandro and Robi & Ibra have been known to be injury prone.

No one is injury prone of them, except for Nesta, nice he wasn't this last season. If anything, Pato is injury prone, and Mexes is recovering from a long term injury.

Obviously Nesta cannot play every game, so Mexes get his games. And I wouldn't worry about Pato to get games either.

It's hard to say who from Nesta and Mexes get the most games. Really depends on Nesta's fitness, and if he stays another season close to injury free. It's nice we actually don't have to worry about. Thiago Silva is amazing, and both Mexes and Yepes will form a great central defense duo with Silva. But, in my opinion, Silva and Nesta is still the best pair we can field.

Agreed, and as far as CB depth goes, i'd take Mexes&Yepes over Chivu&Cordova any day of the week

With our current squad, I would like:

Amelia
Abate - Mexes - Silva - Taiwo
Van Bommel
Boateng - Flamini
Seedorf
Pato - Ibra


But this probably is why I'm not the manager.

I'd rather have Robi in Seedorf's place & Nesta in Mexes' position but this looks solid
