Guest Craig-NUFC Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 Going to need Obertan to get tracking back. Don't think Simpson will have the pace to handle Oxlade-Chamberlain/Walcott. Think Santon will manage alright, just so long as he doesn't push up as much as usual. Also hoping we're not playing a high line. Pardew isn't stupid enough to do that today though, right?

henke Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 Obertan. Jesus wept. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlanSkÃrare Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 Can see us being pegged back all game here. Would rather Cisse start than Ba, I feel his hold up play is better. Really? He has looked a lot weaker than Ba to me. Doesn't win any headers and loses most 50-50s Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gallowgate Toon Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 Don't mind Obertan being available for this one, his pace will pin them back a bit imo, which will be useful as we'll be seeing less of the ball. Pretty nippy starting 11 we've got there, could do something here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cubaricho Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 It's nice to have Cisse on the bench. Someone who can actually change the game if he comes on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 Could anyone recommend a bar to watch this in Leeds city centre? Cheers Dunno if I'd recommend it but it'll defo be on in Sports Bar opposite the Town Hall. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Geordie Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 Good to see Ben Arfa in the side - the lad needs a run of games, nevermind the odd cameo here and there. Can only hope that Obertan doesn't do his usual of trying to trying to look busy without doing much. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shak Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 Just saw the team, saw Obertan's name in the starting eleven before I spotted Ben Arfa. Was the single most depressing second of my life. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's another pub further down on Headrow towards Burley Street that's a bit better, I used to go there when we were in the Championship. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Prophet Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 Listening to Pardew it sounds more like a 4-2-3-1. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bimpy474 Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 Sounds like 4-3-3 matching up Arsenal, from Pards himself right now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unbelievable Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 Will be interesting to see what Obertan can do after his time out. His confidence was shot, but he scored mid week for the stiffs, so maybe he has had time to get his mind in the right place. Overall, I think 4-5-1 is the correct starting set up for this match. Also nice to have Cisse on the bench to bring some genuine quality on if we are chasing the game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest VaVaVoom Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 I actually think AP has got the line up spot on. Ben Arfa in the hole behind Ba and dropping into a 5 man midfield if needed. Jonas and Obertans pace to get at their fullbacks. Confident! Should be a good contest! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
