Ryan_Taylor Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 Cabaye out of the team. Stop it. Barton in the middle Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbandit Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 We'll see who has the biggest impact on the day. I'd be surprised if Cabaye imposes himself and I like Guti, he runs all day, has good work rate and holds the ball up so well but I still think Obes is more likely to create goalscoring opportunities than him Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BlacknWhiteArmy Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 We need to hold the ball ffs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gdm Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 If we don't get a left back in, we are definitely going to need Jonas on the left to help out Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbandit Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 Fair point, if there's not a new LB in, we will need Guti there Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zero Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 I am pretty sure all the hype in this post will turn sour after a few matches. Obertan is an useful player but man if he is that talented he won't be released by Alex... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gbandit Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 I'm not one of these overhyping the lad, I like him but think he's got a lot to prove. I just think for this game against Sunderland he can definitely make a big impact Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
taxfree Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 I'd drop either Guti or Cabaye for the game. I'd play Obertan on the left if Guti was out of the team and Obes on the right if Cabaye was out of the team. I'm really looking forward to seeing Cabaye develop but I think in this game the pace will be too much for him to impose his passing game. Obertan is the perfect player in this game for counterattacks Thank god you're not the manager then Seriously though, our strongest area of the pitch is midfield and we should be looking to overrun them. For that to happen we need to have Jonas and Cabaye on the pitch, with Tiote, Barton, and potentially Obertan/Marveaux if we play 5 in the middle. Jonas is undroppable at the minute in my opinion. His work rate is great, and he's a great outlet. Dropping Cabaye or Jonás, have a word fella. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cronky Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 Against Arsenal, Shola looked better than Ba in the target man role. If Ba wants that spot, he needs to prove himself. Obertan's pace will be very useful playing away, so I'd start him as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilko Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 We'd be mad not to start Obertan imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmojorisin75 Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 We'd be mad not to start Obertan imo. this, same midfield as arsenal but obertan and ba up front to exploit the space we'd beat them with that team imo, if we play 10 men from the start (shola) it'll be a struggle i reckon Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conjo Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 I think Obertan could serve a better purpose coming off the bench when Sunderland players start to tire. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

worthy Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 I think Obertan could serve a better purpose coming off the bench when Sunderland players start to tire. I agree, he even rattled the Arsenal defense a few times with his pace and acceleration. Perfect man to put on when legs are getting tired Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
