Guest VaVaVoom Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 Agreed Best has been poor but i still think he offers more than Strola like. Really scary thought now that AP has sais we wont get a striker. When Ba goes our 1st choice strikeforce is going to be Best and Strola with Lovenkrands, Sameobi and possibly Ranger in reserve. Depressing really. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 If we somehow win this then we're as close to 4th spot again as what we are to 8th. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skirge Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 I guess it will be 4-4-2 with Sammy in for Obertan then one three to Partner Ba. I know lots on here would like to see a 4-3-3 or some other creative system but Pardew has the issue of his system having to suit our squad and not just a starting 11. No point messing with things to much, keep the system simple but get your tactics right. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 Whoever plays RM will need to be on their game as Evra is decent going forward, a lot better doing that at the moment than going the other way. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sammy does have the pace and drive to back Evra up but I doubt Sammy has enough footballing nous to get the better of him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we want to be attacking then putting someone like Ben Arfa could prove to be very successful. Evra has been poor defensively this season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Astroblack Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 In the past its always been Scholes or Soljchar who's made the difference. They dont have these players this time. We're at home, I say we have a go and grab a win. 2-1 to us. Ba and Ben arfa. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

nufc4eva Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 Santon for Raylor, Ben Arfa for Oberwank should be the two changes. Vuckic should be given another game and see if having players with technical ability can cut it. Pardew may as well, we have been awful the last 6 games. May as well try and attack them Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astroblack Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 Sammy Ameobi. Saw how green he was in the Chelsea game when he was bullied off the ball by Ivanovic. Not ready to start a game. Maybe at the end of the season IF we're comfortably in the lead. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

broonalegeordie Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 Quite worried we are going to start with Vuckic and Sammy ahead of Ben Arfa. Sammy in particular shouldn't be anywhere near our first 11. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben Arfa has to start, either left wing or up top with Ba. Now that we got rid of Obertan there's two spots open in the first eleven and it's simply outrageous if HBA doesn't start.
