Aarons

 

No chance he won't play Gouffran if De Jong out, he will want his workrate out wide.  Would love him to be bold though, Aarons looks ready to me.

What Pards fails to realise is that work rate out wide is nice but if we actually offered a threat out wide then our opponents would be more prone to sitting a little deeper. All we do with Gouffran and Sissoko out wide is invite our opponents to step up and push onto us forcing us to drop deeper and due to the fact we are unorganised at the back this is why we get raped most games.

Well of course, with Aarons, De Jong and Cabella the other team will have to drop deep and keep bodies back, throw Sissoko in and could be quite dangerous as long as he learns how to play centre mid role and improves passing, maybe have a DM alongside him, throw in Remy up front :)

This in theory could work beautifully with tiote alongside sissoko only tasked with breaking up play. One concern I would have is the creativity in the centre of the park. Sissoko is great at driving forward but lacks creativity.  If de jong dropped deep looking for the ball and dictated play it could work but Inam not sure its his natural game. In any event we would never see any of this as Pardew is a wanker

He'll play a 3 in there in the hope of containing them. Unfortunately, they'll be under so much pressure that they'll end up playing about 15 yards in front of the 2 CBs and City will just bypass them. Can see Haidara being targeted and an early goal wins it for City straight away.

 

Can see it finishing 1-4 or something like that. Pardew will then blame someone/something.
