Skeletor Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 Start Ba with Best. Swap Cisse with Ba (or Best if Ba is holding up ok). That way we always have a threat on the pitch at the very least. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benwell Lad Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 I think they might play a part, I don't see why they shouldn't. Cisse might not because he hasn't been with the squad much, but definitely Ba. IF they get back tomorrow,and it's still an if, and they have no real adverse affects, I'd start Ba and have Cisse on the bench ready for the last 30 minutes. If we had a couple of world beaters up front as replacements I'd give them more time, but I'm not sure we have....... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fenham Mag Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 Can't believe some people think it's not worth risking them (if its a risk at all). Ba will keep Cisse right and we'll have a much better chance of winning. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanshithispantz Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 No reason at all Ba shouldn't start. Can understand Cisse on the bench but then I look at the alternatives. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ujpest doza Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 I can't see how it's any different to us playing an away game in say Kiev in the CL or Moscow. Or indeed any different to Tino Asprilla getting off a plane at Lunchtime, having a glass of wine with his pre match meal cos he thought he wasn't involved and then coming off the bench and playing a blinder.

durhamunigeordie Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 Or Danny Simpson spending hours on the phone begging one of his teammates to give him a lift to the airport because he can't afford a taxi. No,wait...that doesn't work Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest VaVaVoom Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 Blackburn will be shitting themselves after Ben Arfa raped them the last time. Gonna be without a few of their key players where as we COULD have three key players coming into the side/squad. Would be amazing if AP started Cisse, Ba and Ben Arfa in attack with Coloccini back in defence. Unlikely however. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ToonZA Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 We must have Colo back.....or else its Shola as captain for 90 mins I will not be able to endure that again. ever. FFS - just have Ba and Best upfront with Cisse on the bench. Colo and Willo as the CBs. Simpson should be dropped from RB but I dont see any other option so he will retain his place. The rest should pick themselves - with the exception of CM. (Edit - Just saw the Cabaye news now.) Hope we dont again go with square pegs in round holes in a complicated formation when facing a fairly average team. Its not like we are going up against Barcelona! If we keep it simple, keep possession and keep pressurising them, our quality will prevail. If we once again try and complicate things we only end up looking like sh*t and tripping over our own feet. Oh and leave Shola on Tyneside. No need to give the opposition a leg up by having him in the squad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
furney89 Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 I really want to go. But i am not a member. I wonder if there might be cash turnstiles like when i went for the league cup.
