What a shit time that was. :lol: the first 3-4 games destroyed us (Swansea, West Ham & Southampton come to mind). Performances improved a bit after that (Stoke away) but the damage was done in those few games and we were screwed really.

Hearing on the grapevine that Shola is starting.

 

Didn't Pardew play him last season to defend set pieces? Maybe switching to 4-4-2 tomorrow,with Gouff and HBA on the wings and Sissoko and Anita in the middle?

He's going 4-4-2, It's either Shola or Gouffran up top with Cisse, i think Shola because of their set pieces. Another decision where he's worried about them. We have enough to defend seeing as they're aren't that big either.

 

We will have possibly, Mapou, Colo, Dummmet(5ft 10) and or Santon, Sissoko and Cisse, all 6ft plus. Lets play our best attacking team and give them problems, but i bet he bottles it.

Yep, you could imagine him sitting in his office analysing them to bits working out how to stop them.

Big Sam has won on his last two visits to St James's with Blackburn and West Ham and I think he will make it a treble tomorrow

Didn't he win with Blackburn again so i think it's three on the trot.

Even though we lost big time against Arsenal and Man u away i actually enjoyed our football in those games more than most of our games. Then you could at least see some positive signs of what the players are capable of.

Me too but it scared Pardew to death and it's been rancid ever since. I can see why people call him a coward now.

Are West Ham really that big of a team on set pieces without Carroll?

 

Cole, Nolan, Downing, Diame, Noble and Maiga really that big?

 

Diame aside of course.

 

1 Carroll and 1 Nolan is enough for us to be worried about for Pardew.

Which is what i said in my post Mole, i don't think they are. And i think we can handle them with players i put down, but can you seriously see Pardew going and ignoring West Ham strengths. I dont mean completely disregarding them but not trying to stop them so much that it suffocates our own attacking play. Not really sure why i put that, as that's exactly what we've seen for a year or so.

Anyone else think the atmosphere will be dogshit tomorrow? Especially considering the last few home performances.

 

Imagine if we concede early:anguish:

 

That'll be interesting, rather it didn't happen mind.

If the crowd for once were allowed to see some offensive and positive football with movement from the start then im sure the atmosphere would come along with it. But to answer your question, yes, it will be dogshit.

That's the starting line up tomorrow by the way... Have it on good authority!

 

Taken with a pinch of salt, obviously. Wouldn't be at all surprised like.
