Depends on the opposition... if it's a winnable game but not an easy one, I would be tempted to try to and mix in a couple of better players. I'm half hoping it's an away game, would love another night like tonight!

Got in a while ago as well, what a night! We should have wrapped it up much more easily obviously, we allowed ourselves to drop too deep and were exploited by Chelsea's width and movement. Tiote obviously isn't a right back, seemed a strange decision to bring him on there. Never a penalty of course (they didn't show that on their big screen!). Thought we had fucked it up, but then Goala popped up to save the day! Like Ferguson's performance, he did well. Also thought Ranger had a very good game and won loads in the air. Jonas I thought had a poor game, although he did set up one goal and almost assist another couple! We were careless at the start of the game and I thought we were going to get Brambled, but well done to the lads for turning it around. (By the way, hideous decision by them to risk Kalou at half time)

Yes, they'll make some defensive errors which will lead to us scoring.

Potential upset i guess. Southend beat Man United a couple of seasons back. Higher viewing figures for Sky. Our match is considered a home banker by anyone that isn't a daftie NUFC fan. And by many who are.

Surely they won't play Malouda? Anyway, all this is pure spectulation, both teams will be pretty random.

But that's a different sport, remember in the premiership you have to be fit atheltic style to be able to cope with the pace of the division. Yeah, obviously different sports require different body shapes and different kinds of fitness. All I was saying is that a high bodyweight that's made up mostly of muscle is a good thing generally. I'm not saying Nolan fits into that category mind! Yeah, different sports require different types of body. I'm saying player's with big physical frames will find it hard to compete in the premiership due to the nature of how the game is played i.e. Look at Arsenal. I'm not sure, I always thought small players were discarded/failed much more than big ones. Arsenal are an exception really... you could equally say look at Gareth Bale, Christiano Ronaldo etc, both guys with big builds similar to a sprinter. It's more than possible to be big and fit, it just requires more work. Obviously footballers don't necessarily have the ability to put that work in, as they also have to practice playing football!

I Nolan hater number one usually, but he has performed better over the last few weeks. Willing to judge him on his recent performances.

The prosecution rests.

To be fair, people should forget about their body weight and concentrate on their bodyfat percentage. It is more difficult to measure accurately though. One glance at the England Rugby team stats will tell you high bodyweight doesn't mean you're not in shape!

We are currently the sort of club who should be trying to win this. Some big teams have already been knocked out. I wouldn't risk anyone who we have no adequate backup for (Enrique, Carroll), but as Ash says I would play the strongest team of non-essential players, with a few first teamers mixed.

I still think we will see Jonas, Ben Arfa and Routledge all playing together against some sides. Everton needed a bit more steel in midfield, maybe.

i like how you are calling people "spackers" based off a scenario you've just invented in your head and have no idea whether or not it is true. Also, if anything Nolan looks better on highlights than he looks in real life.

Cannet wait for this like, I know it's a bollocks competition but I love away games, especially evening ones.

I've got an idea, let's stop stereotyping people's opinions and let them give their fair responses to players' performances.

His acceleration is amazing.

Wonder what the French equivalent of Teesside is.

They tried the 'play til the whistle thing'... didn't work as players felt like dicks for playing on, and the fans booed them for doing so.

Your posts are spectacular.

Especially since they didn't sack him when they got relegated. Newcastle-esque timing.

I thought the opposite about Southgate weirdly enough, seemed a weird decision at the time.

Totally this, I was saying 'we've heard it all before, he'll never change'... but something feels different this time around, particularly after his heroic self-control against Wolves.

Yes, the problem is there's only one of him.
