Kanj Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 I'd go full-strength with Marveaux, Tiote and Yanga-Mbiwa in for Gouffran, Perch and Debuchy. Yep. Spot on same for me. So you'd put Mapou in at RB then Rich? Edit: Just saw Ian beat me to it. Nevermind. I know the answer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeloEmre Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 Can't see Haidara being involved here. Why not? I would think it's exactly what's likely to happen. He's not been on the bench in the PL yet, and don't expect to see him before next season tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 I just think he's a more pressing concern to get game-ready than Haidara is and when he signed Pardew said on NUFC TV that he considered him a CB/RB - not a DM. Might be a good way to get him bedded-in, while providing us some much-needed extra threat from set plays. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 Personally if MYM plays I think it has to be at CB. If we're going to get him integrated into the team we should do it without messing about with his position. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skeletor Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 Think MYM will play centrally. Gives Pardew the opportunity to rest one of the centre backs (probably Colo). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cajun Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 Perfect game for MYM to start. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanj Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 Yeah - I also hope we start nearly everyone who's first choice now bar YG and Debuchy for obvious reasons. Mapou in for on the CBs and the rest get it going. Put this tie to bed at home and if we need to rest them next week then fair play. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilson Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 Can't see Haidara being involved here. Why not? I would think it's exactly what's likely to happen. He's not been on the bench in the PL yet, and don't expect to see him before next season tbh. Think he'll be on the bench for this one with a run out later on, and start in the away leg. Fairly certain we'll see him before next season otherwise why would we have registered him for the Europa League? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cajun Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 Perfect game for MYM to start. Who in place though? Long term it would make sense for him to get as many games as possible with Taylor. But I wouldn't be fussed with either alongside him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 It's absolutely imperative that Taylor and Yanga-Mbiwa get as much playing time together, seeing as they're going to be first choice next season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wallace Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 I guess until we are safe, Pardew will go with the tried and tested partnership of Colo and Taylor and then I would expect MYM to start some games with Taylor. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Varadi Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 Think Mapou and Willo will both play tbh - Pards won't want to risk injury to Taylor or Colo. Reckon Haidara and Simpson will be at full back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on what? If Colo goes we might buy another centre half for the first team. As even though Taylor is playing well we know that he simply can't be relied upon.

Absolutely, and I wouldn't be averse to shipping him out if Colo wasn't leaving (I say that most transfer windows tbh), but I personally can't see us splashing out on another CB having spent the best part of £7m on MYM, and getting him in 'early' (). Maybe it's just me being cynical again though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
