I'd say:

Zabaleta-Kompany-Nastasic-Clichy
-----Fernandinho---Rodwell-------
--------------Yaya-----------------
Navas------Aguero---------Silva---
- Likes a holding player, at Malaga - Toulalan
- Happy to use a big unit behind the main striker, Julio Baptista at Malaga
- Ok with a midget up top, used Saviola at Malaga
- Comfortable having playmaker type out wide, Isco on the left at times for Malaga
Subject to change of course, because at time Santa Cruz or Baptista was lone striker, with Isco in behind, but this is what I'd go for based on standard starting point.
Absolute madness from Pellegrini tonight. Starting Dzeko, a complete waste of time. This is why I thought he'd go with something like the above.
