Guest Roger Kint Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 kind of feel for the <100 paying and travelling to see what is essentially our reserves In all fairness Pardew has never once said he would do any different with the cups this year than rest the bigger players.

stozo Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 Thought we'd have taken Ba or Cisse. Not neither... By the looks of the squad list posted on Twitter by Caulkin Cisse was in the squad but pulled out (Bird says he's ill). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest reefatoon Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 I just don't understand why we strive all season to try and get into Europe, then when we do get there, we play our reserve and youth players. Might as well just try and finish 8th every season and be happy with it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilson Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 doesn't look too bad a team actually but would still have liked ba to be there also want to see anita full back with perchinho in the centre with bigi Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

toptoon Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 Mehdi Abeid, Romain Amalfitano, Sammy Ameobi, Shola Ameobi, Vurnon Anita, Gael Bigirimana, Adam Campbell, Rob Elliot, Shane Ferguson, Dan Gosling, Steve Harper, Sylvain Marveaux, Gabriel Obertan, James Perch, Davide Santon, James Tavernier, Steven Taylor, Haris Vuckic, Mike Williamson Hmmm i'd like to see: Harper Anita Taylor Willi Santon Bigi Perch Mehdi/Amalfitano Sammy Campbell Shola Expect we'll see Obertan, Marveaux, Vuckik, Gosling playing though. All who have a lot to prove. Marveaux in particular has a lot to prove. Obertan who i do not rate played ok and better than the anonymous Marveaux in the last euro game. Out of those four i'd only expect Marveuax though to have the ability to break into our first team. Shocking against Everton though, still has it all to prove. Will have to pray that Taylor, Willi, Santon and Anita come through unhurt because we have no real quality in depth to our squad and it is threadbare in places. Solid enough back 5 though that will need the full backs to work the channels with Sammy and Campbell who should they play i fancy to have a good game.

Ketsbaia Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 Can't see us winning this. Maritimo are better than Atromitos and we were shambolic against those with a similar squad. Hopefully snatch a draw. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilson Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 Not the strongest but hoped to see ba and possibly cabaye there. A first choice striker and cabaye for more game time, although can see why cabaye's being left for sunday. But Ba could easy be the difference between 3 or 1/0 points.

Guest Spark Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 Pretty pissed off about this, like. It would be nice to get off to a good start in the group. Can we expect similar squads for the rest of the games? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
durhamunigeordie Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 Not surprised by the squad for an away game having played at Everton on Monday night. Expect to see Shola start as a lone front man with a few of the younger/quicker players running off him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ritchie Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 I think we'll see more of Ba and Cabaye in our European home games and possibly Bordeaux away. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 Transfer window is solely to blame for reserves featuring in this competition in such numbers. Not surprised at the squad at all but there are still players there to win the game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nufc4eva Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 Not pissed off at all, hopefully younger players get the chance, we need 3 points on Sunday and important Cabaye, Cisse and Ba are fresh for that. Ben Arfa could not play anyway and its a good opportunity for Sammy, Vuckic, Fergie etc. We need to blood these players and although we may get beat or struggle it's important to get the players through and playing first team football.
