Sifu Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 I'd go: Krul Taylor Taylor Colo Fergie Obertan Gosling Guthrie Marveaux Vuckic Ba Pretty much this! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

toontownman Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 Think we will go almost full strength. Pardew wants this cup. Ferguson at LB would be nice though. Obviously would like to see gosling, barfa, sameobi and abeid but I'm not sure the latter will feature. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cubaricho Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 Pards doesn't really play that weakened of teams in cups, he takes them very seriously. I think maybe 3-5 fringe players to come into the starting 11 with maybe 3 on the bench with mostly first-teamers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 I hope he keeps Best in the team. Make him feel like he's the main goal getter now, give him a chance to get another goal or two. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoveItIfWeBeatU Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 Pardew called this the Coca Cola cup in his BBC interview yesterday. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/14960759.stm Sammy won't be starting this: - http://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/newcastle-united/nufc-news//tm_headline=sammy-ameobi-to-stay-as-nufc-game-changer%26method=full%26objectid=29438963%26siteid=72703-name_page.html The team should be a mix of players who need a game (e.g. Gosling, Guthrie and Marveaux) and players who need to gain confidence (e.g. Ba, Obertan and maybe even Tiote). I'd stick with the usual back four. R.Taylor needs to get used to playing left back. Sammy and Ferguson to come on as subs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colos Short and Curlies Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 Really think Perch will start at CB in this. Would love to pair him with Colo if true, but as indestructible as the demi-god is, we shouldn't need to be playing him (and risking injury and/or a card) against Forest in their current form to get a result Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abeid was back on the training field this week too after recovering from a muscle injury sustained in a behind-closed-doors game at Sunderland last week. The teenager was stretchered off after a strong tackle from Titus Bramble, but is back in first-team squad contention. Pardew said: “Mehdi trained yesterday, and I think he’s got a chance for Tuesday too.” Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 For me, the next game is about giving some players that don't play a run out, but I can't see Pardew playing kids as that isn't how he likes to work. You know Lovenkrands will be in the right, while I am keen on protecting Colo, Cabaye, Tiote, Simpson, Best as these are irreplaceable. The only reason Steven Taylor plays is that there is no-one else, while Ryan Taylor only plays because Santon is returning. I hate Perch, but I'm relying on some against old club magic. So the below is what I suppose would be a more pragmatic lineup. Krul Taylor Perch Taylor Ferguson Lovenkrands Guthrie Gosling Marveaux Ben Arfa Shola Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christmas Tree Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 The bottom line is we probably wont make the Champions league and even Europa might prove a bridge too far. Therefore I couldn't give a toss whether we then finish 9th or 14th etc and would much rather have a cup instead. A very good cup run is a real possibility with this team so lets please throw everything at it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A very good cup run is a real possibility with this team so lets please throw everything at it. An injury to Coloccini in September could be the difference between 7th and 18th this season. Would rather get us in to a position this season that we can build on next season than lose to Man City's second team in the Semis this year. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
