Foluwashola Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 Think this will be our first loss (nothing to do with tonight). Despite their team looking shite on paper (mackem banter), it's still a massively difficult place to go. Good news is, I know fuck all Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
womblemaster Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 i suspect pardew will once again not learn his lessons, and start with the wrong team. 3-1 to stoke. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExiledGeordie Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 Santon is 6'2, surely that will be useful against their "aerial bombardment" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wil Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 Steven Taylor has to be back for this or they'll have too much power for us. Would go with Best and Ba to take them on up front, and also use their height defensively. And keep Ben Arfa back for another start v Everton.

ChrisJbarnes Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 A point would be great here. Fill the side with workhorses and cloggers and play for a point. Best and Ba up front. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Prophet Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 I'd start Santon and Marveaux, I've been saying that for weeks though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

joeyt Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 Oh and , arguably our best player against these last year was Ferguson, so I don't seeheight being an issue if we're to play Marveaux or not Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Prophet Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 Also I hope Krul cuts the needless long punts out, it'll be bread and butter for Stoke's centre halves. A quick passing game is the way forward. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wullie Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 Also I hope Krul cuts the needless long punts out, it'll be bread and butter for Stoke's centre halves. A quick passing game is the way forward. If there's one criticism I have of Krul, it's his reluctance to get the ball out to the full backs quickly... though to be fair I'm sure that's due in part to who the full backs are.
