The_Steve Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 We'll lose but we'll show a little more fight today. I'm secretly holding out for a draw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CI Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 I got a feeling he will start the young striker alongside Bent. Was he even registered in time ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Villan81 Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 Not feeling confident about this game what so ever,tho i will try and jump on the optimism wagon and hope we get a draw Stephen Ireland been going on about he wants a new contract,he needs to do what he did in the cup the other night again today and more often,too hit and miss,we are pretty much relying on him to feed DB so it be nice to see him go on a run now of producing because we are going to need " what he is able to do " today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wes Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 I think we'll lose. Newcastle are a really strong side and have had an unchanged team for months where as ours is still in flux. Like others have mentioned, I'd just like to see a solid performance with more attacking intent in the final third. If we came out of this with a clean sheet it would be a great achievement.

troon_villan Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 Money on Clark and Vlaaaaar today. A cheeky corner maybe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrackpotForeigner Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 i fear we will get a drubbing...they have great attacking options and our back four are still learning to play together... if we do lose i just hope there is enough positive football to cling on to... things i would like to see today: 1. Delph recalled - him and KEA looked decent together at West Ham 2. Our fullbacks get forward! Having zero width is killing us coz we havent got the skill to go through the middle 3. A performance from "our messi" Stephen Ireland. No tappy bollox, support Bent and have some **** shots! 4. No Bannan or Herd in the starting line up 5. N zogbia hugging the touch line and recieving the ball in space, not when there are four players around him! 6. Solid performance from Given Change the last four letters of that post to "uzan" and we're in total agreement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KSV Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 I got a feeling he will start the young striker alongside Bent. Was he even registered in time ? I think so? He signed pretty early on didnt he? Soon find out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutByEaster? Posted September 2, 2012 Moderator Share Posted September 2, 2012 Difficult to predict our line up. I'd go: ----------------------Guzan--------------------------- Lowton-------Vlaar-----------Baker-----------Lichaj ------------------------Delph-------------------------- ---------El Ahmadi----Ireland----Bannan----------- ---------------Weimann-------Bent------------------- Left back is hard to call, as is the goalkeeping, Lambert seems to like Herd, I'm guessing that Clark and N'Zogbia will both want to be involved and I'm not sure how ready (or available) the new boys are.

Eddington Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 The Chesterfield lad is available, however Benteke is not. Would like to see Bennett come on at some point in replacement of Baker, who will no doubt get played at LB due to Ciaran's one match suspension already been served against Tranmere.

lp_villa830 Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 Didn't realize Clark was eligible for this game. Still I'd leave him out for a bit as he has struggled in his first two games. Guzan Lowton Vlaar Baker Bennett Herd KEA Ireland Bannan Weiman Bent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eddington Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 Guzan and Clark in according to Jack Woodward. Baker dropped? Lichaj at LB? Really is a tough call who to put at LB. I think Guzan deserved the call up, will keep Given hungry to get his no.1 spot back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PompeyVillan Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 Clark is shit, watch him be physically dominated and technically bamboozled by Ba and Cisse if he plays CB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
