Stottie Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 It's great to be back to feeling excited about games coming up and not dread them. Even when we're up against strong opposition, which Swansea definitely are. Unlike last year, I don't think we can sit back and defend the 18 yard line if we go a goal up. There is much more attacking prowess there now under Laudrup. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

nufc4eva Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 It's great to be back to feeling excited about games coming up and not dread them. So true. I can't wait for it. So different to a month ago, but looking forward to seeing Gouffran, Cabaye, Mbiwa, Sissokho, Debuchy etc Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ref's a PL newbie too Referee: Craig Pawson - South Yorkshire-based whistler who we believe is making his debut in the top-flight. He warmed up for this one by overseeing Hartlepool's 2-1 victory at Scunthorpe in League One on Saturday. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LRD Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 Does that mean Jonas not starting? Like it that we have leaders on the pitch - Cabaye, Yanga-Mbiwa, Debuchy who have at some stage captained their previous clubs. Even Sissoko seems like a potential captain-type. Pre-January, leadership was limited on the pitch with the injuries and a distracted club captain. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think it just illustrates that Pardew sees Cabaye as a more influential player, which of course, he is! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think it just illustrates that Pardew sees Cabaye as a more influential player, which of course, he is! I know someone said different in another post but I am sure on Sunday that Colo went up to Cabaye with the armband first and then went on to Jonas which appeared to me as if Cabaye was saying that Jonas should take the armband as he was the next in line. Different obviously if Pardew sorts it out pre match. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not True, Garry Monk and Kyle Bartley are fit. Can't see Tate playing a PL game again TBH. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
54 Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 Apparently these have only lost 2 points from leading positions this season, and haven't won when going behind during a game. I think the first goal could be key Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest bimpy474 Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 Cabaye Skipper, Jonas out for Ben Arfa soon........ http://gifsforum.com/images/gif/fuk%20yeah/grand/fuck-yes-fuk-yeah-6bb61e3b7bce0931da574d19d1d82c88-118.gif Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elma Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 Cabaye Skipper, Jonas out for Ben Arfa soon........ Think Jonas will start and Ben Arfa won't even make the bench. As someone else mentioned in the HBA thread, personally I wouldn't play Ben Arfa on the plastic pitch in the cold against Anzhi either. Wait for Stoke/Anzhi at home.
