Or they will go 5 across the midfield.
Damn, I was hoping they'd go with 4-4-1.

It'd be even easier if they started with nine.
If Obertan plays it'll probably feel like that anyway.

Are you making fun of my joke? :barnet:

I bet he plays a fudging blinder against us. It'd be fudging typical. He literally looks and plays like someone who has won a competition to play, just awful.
Honestly I didn't realise it was a joke haha. Thought you intended to put 4-4-1-1, your joke hinges on whether you consider the 1 by the striker a midfielder or not.
Umm...
It hinges more on them playing Obertan or Ameobi really.

I see no reason why Cisse and Ba do not start together, they are use to playing together at international level

How many goals in open play have Ade and VDV scored in their last 10 league matches together/ I really hope we start with Ade and Saha or Defoe

" Spurs weak point looks to be their defence, especially with the attack minded Modric and the ineffectual Parker in midfield. Cisse and Ba should have King and Kaboul for breakfast."
These geordies are as deluded as the fudging Scousers

I would play a flat 4-4-2 with Defoe & Ade up top but i think it's fairly obvious now that if VDV is fit,he plays. The line up i posted is what i think Harry will play
Seeing as they've played together for Senegal a massive four times they obviously know each other's games inside out, but I was referring to Pardew's press conference where he seemed to indicate that Cisse wouldn't start. There's no reason to take that as 100% gospel, but they have usually gone with one out and out striker in the harder away games.

I'd also like to see Saha or Defoe start up front to give us more of a goal threat up front.
As VdV and Ade are badly off scoring form: Rafa has only scored 1 league goal since his excellent run last October whilst Ade has only scored twice since November.
So they both have to score in each game to be considered successful? (theoretically - obviously at the moment both are off-form)
Defoe is our top scorer and most in-form striker, so if fit - I'd most definitiely start him ahead of old Louis
I agree, but Id play Defoe. I think that with all the proof that Ade and Defoe score more goals for the team as a partnership, it benefits us to rest VDV if Defoe is fit. Maybe it will kick start Ade in front of goal. Who knows?
Worth a try though.

VDV's goals with and Ade
Wigan

Chelsea
Ade's goals with Defoe
Wolves (both scored)
Liverpool (both scored)
WBA (2 goals, and both scored)
Stoke (Penalty: Note, Defoe played 2nd half when penalty was conceded by Modric)
If both are off form, it makes sense to drop VDV.
