    I'd play -
    -------------Gayle---------
    -Gouff-----Diame---Ritchie
    --------Hayden-Anita---
    Dummett--Clark-Lascelles-Yedlin
    ---------------Darlow---------------

    I don't want to play Colback. I'd prefer Anita.

    He may not be a good premier league CDM but he's good enough at this level.

    Is Colback fit again? Surely ginger has to play now, Anita can't do the playmaker role:

    -----------------------------Gayle---------------------------------
    -----Gouffran------------Diame--------------Richie----------
    ----------------------------Colback------------------------------
    ----------------------------Hayden--------------------------------
    Anita----------Clark------------Laecelles-----------Yedlin
    ---------------------------Darlow---------------------------------

    Anita far better at right back than midfield, and easily a Prem standard right back anyway.

    Colback isn't a playmaker. Hayden has been creating chances recently and also playing a good part in some moves.

    We don't need Colback for that.

    I'd go with Tash but it is very likely Rafa will do nothing if the sort. He will likely split his first choice between the two games. He never just keeps picking a winning side. He is like the tinkerman but multiplied by 36

    It'll be a VERY tough game. They always raise themselves for the "bigger" games.
    With Shelvey out we are severely restricted as he's the heart of the team.
    We need to score first

    I had an 8 fold on today to return 600quid.

    All my early games have come in and I have City to beat Hull and us to win in the late games so in theory am looking pretty good. They are giving me 230 on the cash out at the moment.

    I don't like relying on us though! Also hoping Shelvey being out doesn't make too much difference. I'm holding out for now though. What do you think chaps?

    Cash out the £££ after the City game, then pop half of it on us to win.

    You are guaranteed good profit then... with another potential upside in our game. You may also want to cover the bet both ways and stick £20 on the Owls at 7/2 (and hope for no draw).

    Stick it out. Albert says he will refund any losses if Newcastle don't do the business and I trust him.

    Is it to early to start having a go at colback. We getting dominated and it's no coincidence that he is playing ****. Backwards passing always and does not read the game well at all.

    I think colback should change his name to passback. He never ever passes the ball forward.

    It's a very typical post Christmas performance from us. Very lacklustre.

    I just fail to see any quality in him at all. Has to be said aswell they are a dirty side.

    Watching on Sky and this ref needs to get a grip, there is a nasty heart to what Sheffield players are up, commentators are dicks as well.

    I'd take the cash-out now if it were still an option.

    Stick a bit on Wednesday and the draw on the exchanges. In cashing out you will do so at **** odds. This is the way books make their money.
