Real Madrid C.F. Football Formation

Lineup (4-3-3)

This [I believe] will be the MOST effective starting lineup for Real in the 2011/2012 Season. Coentrao and Sahin have a lot to offer in midfield, especially against Barcelona. (Higuain was placed up front in good faith that he will recover fully from an injury-riddled 2010-2011 season)

On the bench:

Callejon
Benzema
Ozil
Kaka
Khedira
Arbeloa
Albiol
