leazes.ender Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 I rather we played a full team in this match and stuck a bit 2 fingers up to the premier league by playing the reserves at Chelsea. What was the point of trying so much last season only to risk it in this match. Keep the kids for the later games in the group when we've hopefully already qualified. If they do mix it up it needs to be with the right players around them like Jonas and Cabeye who can run all day. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiresias Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 Would playing Cabaye for a bit help him get match fit or tire him out? I'd go with Tav Williamson Perch Raylor Bigi Gos Amal Marv Sammy Shola Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fenham Mag Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 Why start Harper? Its not like Krul will get tired. Some very risky looking line-ups being posted, these aren't Accrington Stanley ffs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ponsaelius Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 Why are so many people leaving Amalfitano on the bench ffs? Aye I'd definitely be playing him somewhere in the side. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's going to be eleven changes though, we really can't afford to play anyone who we want to take part in Chelsea with the tiny gap between games. As Pardew says, league is the priority.

Greg Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 Mental that we are now in a position where you actually need to think about leaving certain players on the bench when trying to pick a team for a cup game and making still 10/11 changes from Saturday.

Good for Harper to play, what if Krul gets sent off or injured in one of our next few games? We need Harper to step in, he's not as good as he was and needs to stay sharp so a game will do him good.

durhamunigeordie Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 Controversial, but Cabaye might be better off playing this and the home leg and sitting out of Saturday at Stamford Bridge. Anita-Tiote-Jonas could be our midfield 3 at Chelsea. I would never have dreamed that i'd advocate that, but he was so far off the pace on Sat he probably needs the games to get match fit. If the situation is right he can then come off after 60-70 mins of the home game and start against Villa. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cajun Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 Would definitely play a half and half side, we need to keep some back but can't take the piss. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 Harper Tavernier Williamson Perch R. Taylor Gosling Anita Obertan Amalfitano Marveaux Shola Ameobi Elliot, Good, Ferguson, Bigirimana, Abeid, Vuckic, Campbell. Perch if Coloccini is going to be fit for Saturday (possibly regardless as he seems a "fit lad"), Marveaux if we've found him, Shola if he's fit. Tavernier and Ryan Taylor could play on opposite sides to open up the possibility of some delivery from the right for Shola. Risky but it's what I'd be inclined to do.

Guest icemanblue Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 Please don't shout our players names, it's unfair to put them under so much pressure. How do you expect them to perform to their full ability with this kind of pressure. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
