[PL] Newcastle (H): Build Up

[gratziani]

Benteke anyone?

*takes deep breath and searches cupboard for hard hat*

not back until first week of May I thought

I want us to score four again please

[Cormack74]

Ah forgot he was injured, almost forgot him completely.

[redmike65]

Poor old Benteke, when I saw him in with the squad players I got a bit depressed but it passed quickly.

[PTP]

Personally given the injuries to can, hendo and origi I'd defo be making changes and resting players...we got results against Stoke and Bournemouth

For Sturridge should defo not play, we simply have to have him fully fit for thurs. I'd rest coutinho, Milner and prob lallana too, and prob all the back four yeah I'd make wholesale changes

Ward

Flanno
Toure
Skrtel
Smith

Stewart
Branagan

Ojo
Firminho
Ibe

Benteke if he's back

[Gray]

Yep I'd go with that, and if Benteke isn't back just whack another midfielder in and push Firmino up.

As much as I want to rest players for Thursday there's no way I want to see Skrtel out there again for us. He'll make them look like Real Madrid & we'll get torn to shreds at the back. Sakho & Toure for me.

[Rich]

Defo no Skrtel. Play Illori or Caulker ahead of him.

anyone at all except Martin

[Norbs]

Let's relegate these cunts

[baitman]

Looking forward to welcoming the legend that is Rafa back!

yeh, but what phone are you using and are you using the full site or some abbreviated version through some sort of app?

[Fosterbloke]

I reckon Sturridge will be rested next Thursday with Firmino up front but will come back in for the home leg.

[Cormack74]

Defo no Skrtel. Play Illori or Caulker ahead of him.

Ilori, where has he been hidden?

[Rich]

Let's relegate these cunts

Ideal scenario is that we win at the weekend but Rafa keeps them up.

[redmike65]

I'd sooner see Newcastle stay up and Sunderland go down, if only because of the managers.

Who?
