Fuck this shit we shouldn't be going out there to nullify them and try to nick something. We should go out all guns blazing. We have the pace, intelligence and lethal finishing to destroy these in the first half hour, and this should be our aim. If we give them too much respect and feel sorry for ourselves because of the injuries, we'll get rolled over. -

Pardew will go with 433 tonight imo. Harper Anita Williamson Taylor Santon Jonas Perch Cabaye HBA Cisse Ba -
He wouldn't push Valdes out but i certainly rate Krul over Valdes, i've always thought Valdes is overrated and would get found out in a poor side, his distribution and his actual footballing ability are the reasons why he has stayed in goal for Barca as he does suit their style. That's pretty much it, really. Valdés' strengths are so tailored to our play style it's ridiculous. Apart from his distribution, his main virtue is one-to-ones, which is our main defensive weakness as we play with such a high defensive line. I reckon a class GK is a class GK anywhere. Barcelona should be in for someone like Neuer imo, and the confidence he would give the back line would be far superior to Valdes' skills.

You should do this more often. Spot on imo. Except I think your keeper selection is shit -
Would rather he went to play under the watchful eye of Lee Clark. He'll make him into a man imo.

31 pts with HBA, Cisse and Baines still to play. -
Blueprint? Philosophy? Tipi Tapi? Intricate passing? It's all bollocks really. I've seen as much long ball in last night's game as was seen under the "King". Just because your keeper passes the ball to the centerbacks it still makes no difference as one of them is certain to hoof it up to nowhere ad infinitum.

If Tiote is out, I think Jonas and Cabaye will start in the middle, with HBA and Marveaux out wide. Starting with Bigirimana may not be the right move imo. Shudder to think that Gosling might creep into CM alongside Cabaye at this rate. -
f*** off you stupid c***. what's this all about?

Thought James Milner had a very good game. One of his better games for the national side. Lampard and Gerrard were woeful in the middle. Cleverly was promising with his forays into the box. Should have scored. Danny Welbeck by far had the most impact, and I quite liked Bertrand's cameo. Very good player who is rather quietly creeping up into the hype machine.
