Cronky Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 Good to see Anita there. Against a side with little aerial threat, there's no need to pick Simpson. Disappointed to see us persist with Ba-Cisse though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilko Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 People saying Sky would be guessing; they managed to correctly predict that incredibly weird setup from the Norwich home game last season where we started with Gutierrez at LB, Perch in midfield and Cabaye on the left. Fingers crossed they're right this time too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris_R Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 We've got a decent collection of players, but the test as ever is what formation Pardew decides to assemble them in. I worry that following the recent Ba/Pardew interviews, Pardew is pandering to Ba and playing him centrally come hell or high water. There's no way Cisse can play out wide, so we'll see 4-4-2 again with the wingers yet again on the wrong wings so they're unable to get early balls into the box, and have to stall our attacks and check back inside every single time. Hope I'm wrong and we go 4-3-3 with Ba out left, but I'm worried that Pardew is obsessing over keeping Ba happy at the cost of everything else.

Ikon Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 We'll start well in the first 5min and score an early goal, before we start showing too much respect (for whatever reason) and sit back. Then lose 3-1, one deflected goal and one penalty and a Gerrard strike from outside of the penalty area. Something like that.. Still something like this im afraid Can only watch the 1st half as well Come on! Smash them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Revolution Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 I think it might be Cisse on the right and Ben Arfa on the left. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
