TRon Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 i dunno like, i'm one of butts harshest critics but since we've found a little bit of form in the last two games i dont know if i want to see the middle of the park change for such an important game, we could probably do with his experience for this one I don't even think he's found form particulalry, but this is probably the wrong game to throw Barton in at the deep end. At home against West Brom would have been a better time for Butt to get injured. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martins as the lone striker? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pilko Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 Whether its 4-5-1, 4-4-2 or the 4-3-1-2 that KK employed, it simply has to be 4 at the back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skirge Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 Taylor would get sent off playing in that role infront of a back three, he would be making to many tackles. -------------Given Beye---Tayls-----Colo----Bass Jonas---Guth-----Bart----Duff ---------Shola-----Oba Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJ7 Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 More nervous than I've been for a game for a long time....first away derby I been to since Dabizas 1-0. Same here, although it was the mackem end I was in that day, just next to the toon support. Managed to keep calm, just stood up shaking my head when Dabizas scored so I could see where he was going with the celebration. It was quite funny listening to the mackems around me during the game! Classic quote sitting in the pub with my mackem mate after the match: "I wouldn't say this in front of any Newcastle fan, but we are fuckin shite, fuckin shite, and Ive been to Northampton to see us, but we are shitter now than weve ever been." My mate just looked at me and I thought he was about to tell the whole pub I was a toon fan! Can't wait for tomorrow now! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im not sure I've seen any team play that system tbh. Is uppose we sort of did when we play tino as a right wingback. That system doesn't even make sense. Surely this "DM" would be better employed as a defender? Regardless...he would probaly end up playing in defense anyway as there are two box to box midfielders in front of him.
