Torres if/when he actually plays.
Drogba beats them both.
I'd prefer Villa to Drogba, Spain would never of won the world cup if it weren't for him!

Well that's obviously wrong.

A midfield of Xavi, Iniesta, Busquets and Xabi Alonso will keep possesion so much that it really doesn't matter who is leading the lines. Either Torres, Llorente or Negredo could of easily filled in the boots of Villa in that Spanish team. Chances are going to be a plenty. Villa obviously played in a deeper role then usual. So if Pedro played in his spot, Spain would of still won the WC. That's what you get when you have Xavi ( Best Possession midfielder in the world), Iniesta ( Best offensive midfielder in the world), Busquets ( Best possesion-keeping defensive midfielder in the world) and Xabi Alonso ( Best deep-lying playmaker in the world).

OK, I concede.
But you have to admit, he was very good, played well was often Spains only scorer (well a couple of times)

Add Fabregas to that midfield makes you salivate!

If you add Fabregas, it becomes a bit unbalanced. Unless you add Xavi to a deeper role, like in the extra time of the WC. They have so many options and depth it's not funny.

Fabregas is one of my favourite players 8)
Yes, they do have a lot of depth but at the same time a hell of a lot of star power!

You have Iniesta, Xavi, Villa, Torres, Busquets, Alonso, Silva, Navas, Pedro, Fabregas, Carzola all for round 6 positions.
