There's something about Villa I'm worried about. Sort of players (Keane, Bent, Ireland, N'Zogbia...) where on a day where it all clicks they could score 2 or 3. I reckon 2-2 here.

The other Cisse went straight into the QPR team and scored on his debut. He won't have known his teammates or how they play. For the same reason I'd start Cisse upfront with Ba. It will give the crowd a lift from the start cheering on a new player, especially when that player is the new number 9.

I'd swap Raylor, for Perch. I just think he's done a better job there than Taylor.

I'd be surprised if Obertan doesn't start on Sunday. He seems one of Pardew's fav's scored a good goal last night so should be brimming with confidence. Would love to see Cisse thrown in at the deep end, it didn't do his namesake too much harm last night. The biggest boost will be to see Ba back, surely Pardew won't be cautious with him? Yes they both maybe tired from a lot of travelling but I think they'll be more effective starting and having 60/70 minutes out of them rather than coming on as subs.

Amazingly this will be the first match we've played this season where we won the corresponding fixture last season.

 

eh ??

 

To simplify it for you we beat Villa at home last season. Out of the 23 games we've played so far we didn't win any of those corresponding fixtures last season. For example last season we drew our game at Blackburn so this is the first time this season that we're up against a team we beat in the same fixture in 10/11.

so if we had this fixture list last season we would not have won a single match yet. Just goes to show yet again what a great job pardew has done. Sure he's been helped by the scouts finding gems but you still have to manage them well
