Newcastle United vs. Wolverhampton Wanderers, 02/04/11 - Pre-match Thread


Recommended Posts

No midfielders on the bench.. We've done some great business in the Jan transfer window haven't we..?

 

Gosling, Ireland, Smith, Vuckic & Ben Arfa all injured, R Taylor & Tiote suspended - maybe we shouldn't have loaned Routledge but you can't have 20 midfielders on the staff, football clubs do not work that way

 

Could have put Richardson there. He's been on the bench before. He may be untested but it's better to actually have a midfielder on the bench instead of 4 defenders.

 

That is true, but it has nothing to do with January business.

I was referring to Routledge, obviously, He honestly could have figured in the sqaud, if not the first team, in nearly every match we have played since we loaned him out without replacing him..

Really worrying who is going to take Nolans place if he has to come off, which i think will happen. Ive played a couple of days after food poisoning and didnt even last 20 minutes. Anyway , im off , Howay the Lads.

Barton inside, Lovenkrands on the wing, Ranger upfront probably.

What will happen should that be the case:

Perch comes on.

Ranger goes up front, Barton and Guthrie in midfield, Lovenkrands wide right.

 

 

Edit. Beaten already.

If needs be we could re-jig it with presumably Perch to left back, Barton into the middle, switch Jonas and push Ferguson on to left wing. And that's the type of mass upheaval Pardew loves to enforce.

No Ireland again? Now there's a surprise.  The bad window of January being exposed for all to see - you ask for trouble and you get it.

 

We aren't paying his wages if he isn't playing so it makes absolutely no difference,Theres a strong chance he will make a positive impact on the games towards the end of the season..

Absolutely furious to see Lovenkrands starting again! Why, why does this man persist in starting such a useless, ineffective player? I know we're very thin on the ground with options up front and in midfield, but christ, Pardew is not doing himself any favours.

 

We have simply got to win this.

There's also a chance he may not even kick a ball for us this season!

Again,We aren't paying his wages,If we hadn't of signed Ireland on loan who is to say we would have bought anyone in? It was worth the risk imo,Win/Win situation..
