2010 FIFA World Cup

Is fabregas in spains first team? or bench? -_-

it shows how good they are when arguably the best player in the world at the moment can't get into spain's team.

Well he's pushing forward. 2 years ago he didn't get a sniff at starting but since the Euros he's been starting a bit but even then it's not every game.

Look at Spains midfield:

Navas, Xavi, Iniesta, Alonso, Fabregas, Silva, Mata.

Then Torres and Villa upfront so they have to play 4 midfielders really to allow Villa and Torres to play so picking 4 out of them is very hard. I'd be surprised to see Fabregas not start most games this world cup though because of his form, maturity and talent but it depends.

Senna also who's class. I can't see him starting. Xavi and Iniesta play at Barca so they'll start. Can't see them changing formation to fit him in either. Big dilemma for the del Bosque but a good one at that. Spanish could struggle upfront if Torres stays injured though.

dont they have negredo or w.e too?

[Geraint]

They certainly do, forgot about him. They have Guiza too but they're hardly names that would frighten a top class back line.

They have Llorente too (sp.) who's 6 ft 6 I think and a good striker so he'd be good to throw on to add something different. The benifit Spain have is that if Torres or Villa get injured, they can just play 4-5-1. They have enough midfielders to do it and I'm sure they will have enough attacking power from midfield to cover so really they can get away with it. The only position Spain are weak at really is LB. They don't really have anyone that's world class to play there but apart from that then there extreamly strong. It would be intresting to see who the CB's are although I expect that Puyol will start.

Thought I'd bump this, as we are now just over 3 months away from the 2010 FIFA World Cup. My god time has flown by, it seems so close now.
