Please. Demba scored plenty from the same position for West Ham so not to concerned. He tends to naturally drift to the left anyway.

Pardew hopes to welcome Mike Williamson back on Boxing Day. It would be a significant boost because Newcastle have suffered aerially since Steven Taylor suffered his season-ending Achilles problem.

 

“We’ve missed Steven more because we haven’t had Williamson. Because he’s the number one header of the ball we’ve suffered from that,” he said. “The last four or five goals against us have been set plays and that’s been significant. We’ve got to try and eradicate that.”

Are the provisional squads actually something the clubs give out (to the Press Association or whatever) or are they just educated guesses?

 

Anyway:

http://www.football365.com/match/3408417/preview

Newcastle (from): Krul, Elliot, Harper, Simpson, R. Taylor, Santon, Ferguson, Perch, Coloccini, Williamson, Kadar, Tiote, Cabaye, Obertan, Ben Arfa, Gutierrez, Sammy Ameobi, Abeid, Vuckic, Smith, Ba, Best, Shola Ameobi.

An idea.

 

If Santon's fit:

 

                                    Krul

 

Simpson      Williamson      Colo        Santon

 

          Cabaye            Tiote        Vuckic

 

          Ben Arfa            Ba          Obertan

 

 

Santon's seems a fairly solid defender so far so may not suffer from Vuckic not protecting him too much, also Obertan has the fitness to track their RB should he go on a run.

Obertan may benefit from having the option to naturally cut inside on to his right there by forcing their RB to think about tackling with his weaker foot, Obertan also has the pace to go outside (if he uses it). We'll also have Vuckic to put in left side crosses should we need.

 

Cabaye works hard and is disciplined, he can cover when Ben Afra inevitably drifts. Cabaye will also help out Simmo and both can offer crosses from the right.

 

Reckon Jonas could do with a rest.

If Santon's out though, as seems likely, it's gonna be the same old 4-4-2

                    Krul

 

Simpson Willo/Perch Colo Raylor

 

Obertan Cabaye Tiote Jonas

 

        Best            Ba

For away games, I think it's real. i.e. "Players who travelled".

Just saw our last win away at Bolton. 4-0 in 2001/02.

 

Shearer, Bellamy, Robert, Solano.

 

Two wingers and two strikers on the scoresheet :fwap: Golden era.

 

Your last win was in 2007. Allardyce's first game.

 

Indeed. First 4 games started so promisingly for him then he set up for a draw at Derby and every thing went down hill from there. Cracking goal by Martins though (the bicycle kick).

That was a great day out, we took them apart with ease.

Fuck, we ACTUALLY had Robert, Solano, Bellamy and Shearer as a front four. I absolutely loved those cunts. What a strikeforce.

I remember a 4-0 loss when Jussi got sent off and our right-winger had to go in net. Might have been this one.

 

It was. Bo Hansen wasn't much good between the sticks.

 

Jaaskelainen, Whitlow, Johnson, Bergsson, Charlton, Barness, Warhurst, Southall, Gardner, Holdsworth, Hansen.

 

Look at the state of that team! I'm amazed we stayed up.

In a way its good this is an away game, you can see they are feeling the pressure of wanting a win, being at home the crowd will only add to that.

I just hope they don't try to force it to much, no constant attempts are the million dollar pass just keep the ball and be patient they are under way more pressure than us.
