Si Posted November 17, 2012 Share Posted November 17, 2012 Why are we jumping to 442 conclusions? Can easily be 433 or switched to 433 mid-game. Because the NUFC official twitter said it was four four two? Because the NUFC official twit is allowed into team tactic meetings? You don't know who runs the account, it could be Pardew for all you know, i don't recall it ever being wrong until the west brom game. It's the clubs PR lass who runs the account, the only way she knows the formation is if Pardew talks in his sleep. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colos Short and Curlies Posted November 17, 2012 Share Posted November 17, 2012 Christ, this club is a joke. They can't even do the basics and inform a country when a player isn't fit. Sounds like they did tbh: "Immediately following the Premier League fixture against West Ham United on Sunday the Club went through the normal communication channels to advise the Senegalese Federation that both Papiss and Demba Ba would not be available for the international friendly match between Niger and Senegal scheduled for Wednesday, 14th November 2012, due to injury." No idea what 'normal communication channels' are in this case but we're claiming we got in touch. I'm not convinced - weren't most people of the impression Cisse would be off on international duty? I don't know the facts either of course, but even if Senegal did have a grudge against us, they'd need something to work with in order to lodge this claim, some failure/incompetence in procedure. Not sure of the exact regulations tbh, I'd need to have a little dig for them. They've obviously got FIFA on their side though so there's not much we can do in all honesty. From a completely selfish point of view I hope he tells them to fuck off and retires from International football. And we've got Ashley who has an ego big enough to take on the whole of FIFA and International Football. I can see a legal case brewing Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Groo Posted November 17, 2012 Share Posted November 17, 2012 Swans team. Tremmel, Rangel, Williams, Monk ©, Davies, Britton, de Guzman, Dyer, Hernandez, Michu, Shechter. So Chico is still out and Kemy didn't make it, 2 first choice in the back 5, a light midfield and Shecter's first start. Seems it will be an interesting game.

I thought it was odd when the twitter account started naming the formation pre game but like I say I can only remember it being incorrect once.

loki679 Posted November 17, 2012 Share Posted November 17, 2012 If we don´t see anything other than 4-4-2, then Pardew is a real idiot. I don't want us to play our usual 4-4-2 but Sammy in there gives us a bit of hope. He's quick and young enough to run all day so he could be playing in a more attacking midfielder type role linking up the play. With HBA and Fergie getting forward and attacking the flanks it might work well and be a bit more fluid than our normal 4-4-2. Still a little worried about us being outnumbered in the centre again but in Tiote and Anita we have a couple of midfielders who can get around the pitch.
