JJ7 Posted August 26, 2010 Share Posted August 26, 2010 Nolan can be a bit hitty missy, but he was good on Sunday. Played the perfect supporting role. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ObiChrisKenobi Posted August 26, 2010 Share Posted August 26, 2010 I'd play him ahead of Nolan, obviously. If not, Jonas to RB. Carroll plays there, you idiot. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keefaz Posted August 26, 2010 Share Posted August 26, 2010 I hope he's as arrogant and self-confident as they say as there's a mahassive amount of pressure on the lad's head now if he signs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest antz1uk Posted August 26, 2010 Share Posted August 26, 2010 Harper Perch Williamson Colo\Sol Enrique Tiote Routledge Jonas Barton Arfa Carroll Maybe get a decent Striker on loan, and stick Arfa in Bartons position. that's a much better starting 11 than i could have imagined at the end of our championship season, if these come off it is a couple of very good aquisitions along with some good youngsters too, to think of the players not in that starting 11 too, saylor guthrie gosling smith nolan ameobi loven best ranger raylor simpson vuckic Krul jesus i surprised myself how many players we still have not in that 11... also whoever said to try and get hutton on loan as RB made a cracking shout, and we also may bring in a decent loan striker yet too!

EthiGeordie Posted August 26, 2010 Share Posted August 26, 2010 Arfa can not be a first choice right away him and Tiote needs a month at least to settle down. Beside I would suspect Jonas will be in RW and Arfa to LW. I can not see Chris drop Nolan so when you guys write here don't right what you feel right what the current situation is.

Guest andrew Posted August 26, 2010 Share Posted August 26, 2010 if he signs, i wonder what chrissy will consider our best starting XI? He can play wing can't he, but I wouldn't really want to drop Routledge or Guti since both offer good qualities. He should come in for nolan, but Nolan does get goals and is a big influence as captain. On paper our best xi is (uncounting saylor) Harper Perch Will Campbell Enrique Rout Tiote Barton Jonas Ben Arfa Carroll you could interchange nolan for ben arfa. Gosling for Barton, Guthrie or Smith for Tiote. So we have good depth. and without trying to get all "chris won't drop nolan/barton/smith", they are big influences (not a bad thing) and barton, nolan, and smith all had excellent games against Villa. Our "backup XI isn't too bad now either" Krul Simpson Colo Tavernier Kadar Smith Gosling Raylor Guthrie Lua Lua Nolan Lovenkrands Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ponsaelius Posted August 26, 2010 Share Posted August 26, 2010 I don't think we should worry too much about fitting everybody into a line-up. This is a squad game and it's great to get some depth, especially when injuries undoubtedly mount up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cajun Posted August 26, 2010 Share Posted August 26, 2010 First: Harper Perch Williamson Colo Enrique Tiote Routledge Jonas Barton Arfa Carroll Second: Krul Simpson Taylor Campbell Kadar Taylor Guthrie Gosling Lua Lua Vuckic Shola In case of emergency - Xisco, Nolan, Best, Smith, Loven, some youngsters.

colinmk Posted August 26, 2010 Share Posted August 26, 2010 Can see him starting off on the bench for the first few games coming on for Noland or Routledge most likely. I hope he impresses and forces his way in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted August 26, 2010 Share Posted August 26, 2010 Bit more from RMC: Ben Arfa in Newcastle Friday The endless series of transfer Ben Arfa will probably end this Friday at Newcastle where Marseille is expected to finalize a loan with option to purchase. After passing a medical at Newcastle this Friday, Hatem Ben Arfa will be paid, subject to an unlikely turn of events, the English club by OM. After a final offensive of Werder Bremen, the French international has finally chosen the Magpies to pursue his career chaotic. First, because the discussions dragged on with German leaders, then because the player has a burning desire to know a football championship and he is sure he may suit his playing style Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
