David28 Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 I'd genuinely rather have Butt back than play Smith. That's pushing it, but it's pretty close At least Butt could do a very entertaining overhead kick sometime during a match. Smith did one in the Stevenage game. Yeah, ok then. Smith also did try to pass the ball and it ended up on the feets of the Stevenage player 2 metres in front of him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's been locked in a cage since Wigan, Xisco's been wearing a Mackem shirt and prodding him with a stick shola look's well pissed off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 Surely Routledge would be much better on the left than Barton? At least he can run at players and cause problems, and Barton's crossing can be retained on the right. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wormy Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 They need 15-20 minutes to build up their atmosphere for when the players come out. Says it all Would love it to happen though, would mean that's all their enthusiasm used by kick off, it'll be dead after 5 minutes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdckelly Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 be even funnier if after all that build up from them for them to go a goal down in 2 or 3 minutes and watch the place completely deflate Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
toptoon Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 We are totally screwed for the next three games without Tiote in midfield. So if Saylor is also ot we are looking at: Simpson Willi Colo Enrique Smith/ Barton Guthrie Nolan Jonas Please do not play Smith. Although Guthrie has been poor this season thus far, he has been good centrally at times in the past and although far from ideal is by far the better option out of the two of them. The only other option is to play a defender there. Colo or Enrique could do a temorary job possibly but we need them in defence..... But if Pardew does the unthinkable and plays Smith AND Nolan together again in midfield we are so in the s*** come Sunday. Could we sign anyone that can play there? .... Larsson is a right winger i know... could he fill in alongside Nolan though? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That team is the best we can hope for now with our injuries and suspensions. Although urks me a bit to move Barton from his right berth its the lesser of two evils.

Villa v Brum was in the same situation on Halloween, it would be more scandalous if both of their derbies were only accessable on foreign tv while both of ours were on Sky.
