David28 Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 No chance IMO, he will probably be first sub though. Like i said yesterday, it's impossible to know what Pardew is going to do. What a boost to have Tiote back though, massive for us. As much as a boost as in Barton's case (considering he'll play). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Logic Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 Hope Pardew plays the 2nd half of the 4-4 to them an hour before kick-off to remind them what passion is. Maybe he should play the first half also, to show what it isn't' Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

plenum Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 I've been away too long to have a clue about the starting 11. Enlighten me! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JH Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 I've been away too long to have a clue about the starting 11. Enlighten me! Probably something like: Krul Simpson Taylor Colo Enrique Marveaux Cabaye Tiote Jonas Ba Best Might be Barton on the right, possibly Obertan if he signs in time/is fit. Vuckic and Gosling have impressed pre-season also, so they may come in for Best depending on what Pardew decides. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BlacknWhiteArmy Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 Is Obertan out for a month or is that just speculation? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Barton should start without Obertan that he should start despite Obertan having signed - he's a much better player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
