nufcjb Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 Looking forward to this one now..Blackburn have Spurs at home this Saturday and unless they managed to pull off another win like the one against Arsenal, Ewood Park would probably half empty for our match..or could be a place of hate towards Kean.. Either way, Pardew should go with a strong team for this one..the next match after this would be the following Monday night game at Stoke..try and get the win against Wigan early on, and rest the top players for this Cup match Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either way, Pardew should go with a strong team for this one..the next match after this would be the following Monday night game at Stoke..try and get the win against Wigan early on, and rest the top players for this Cup match I'd make 5 changes but still be a strong team, being in the likes of Santon, Marveaux, HBA, Gosling and Harper.

bowlingcrofty Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 Think we'll play along the lines of... Harper Simpson Coloccini A.N. Other Santon Gosling Abeid Ben Arfa Marveaux Lovenkrands Shola ...which you'd hope would be enough to get past a weakened Blackburn side. Win this and we're two rounds from Wembley. Should be going all out in this now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 Are the semi's at Wembley for the CC? Still haven't got my tickets for this one yet, will probably by them sometime this week. Can't see it being a sell out some how Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

toontownman Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 Risky, but I think we have to go full strength and go for this one. Then if we get through hope for a home draw in the next round. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flip Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 Krul Raylor Colo Saylor Santon Obert Cabaye Tiote Marveaux BenArfa Ameobi Best, Ba, Jonas will need rest as they'll probably start on Saturday. Raylor has been better than Simpson for the last couple of matches so deserves his place. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shak Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 Should go pretty close to full strength for this, our next game isn't until the following Monday night at Stoke so plenty of time to get rested for that one. I'll be furious if we send out a weakened side and get rolled over. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiresias Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 I wouldn't mind Krul Santon Colo Saylor Raylor Abeid Tiote Barfa Marveaux Best Shola Rests some of the players who are doing a lot of running, and rests Ba just because he's notoriously injury prone. Shola has earned some gametime after that goal...I know I know... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shola has earned some gametime after that goal...I know I know... When you're talking about resting players, you're keeping in the one player who is most likely to pick up a needless yellow and bring himself one match closer to suspension?

Tiresias Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 I was torn between Cabaye and Tiote as I feel with a new player in midfield need to partner with someone experienced. I went with Tiote because Cabaye seems to run himself half to death every game and wonder if a midweek fixture could tire him out from the Weekend. Tiote is going to provide the defensive solidity to prevent an upset, I'd prefer him, rather than worrying so much about getting a suspension so much not playing him when we need him.
