end of the midfield problem?

Last season from when Mancini came in and after organising the defence somewhat, the main weakness and problem are was in midfield.. it was plain as day that we struggled to link up play with the forward crew.
Now assuming Balotelli arrives but ignoring the Milner saga, have we now got what it takes to solve that problem?
My take is that Toure Y. when he is on the pitch will buy the players around him time. Add to that the players who will be in front of him, like Silva, Baloteli, AJ, Tevez and hopefully Ireland, all of whom on a good day will take some looking after and can all play relatively free roles ie. interchange positions and alter shape. That quality will also aid Toure Y. as the oppo is having to cover too many bases at the same time and cant afford to press Yaya as much as they would like to stop him making clean through balls or just carrying the ball forward into the space.
So, if it pans out something like this then the problem we had last season of not being able to hold a position higher up the pitch will evaporate. A lot of teams will be stuck just trying to tread water.
If Balotelli turns out to be as much of a handful as Tevez is then we are going to see spaces opening up for the likes of AJ, SWP and Silva to jink into.
In games where the opposition is just about coping with all this, the two fullbacks are going to find they also have space to run into and Kolarov, Micah and Bridge all like to that if they can.. so adding to the troubles of already troubled opposition.
