    Glad Colo, Santon and Tiote are starting but I wish Ben Arfa was as well.

    Happy enough with that team. Good to see Besty back. I like him and Ba up top.

    Santon finally up to pace then? What is going on with Ben Arfa i thought he'd be well suited to playing swansea?!

    It's making me wonder what is going on off the pitch. I'm sure Pardew said he's difficult to manage sometimes, so maybe he's done something and isn't getting game time because of it...

    My initial delight at Colo, Santon and Tiote starting has gone a bit now. Why is Williamson on the bench, he should start ahead of Perch...I don't care if he isn't 100%.

    Also drop Obertan for HBA for **** sake. Why can't HBA play on the wing? Because he can't track back? He'll track back more than fukcing Obertan does!

    Excited that we'll most likely get to see Abeid play a part today, I can't imagine Tiote will last the 90 minutes and he's our only cm cover on the bench.

    Maybe we're trying to Counter Swansea and the fastest way to do it is the long balls up to these 2 who play off each other superbly. Tin hats off lads

    I fully agree with the starting line up and bench, glad Colo and Tiote are back, and glad Best is starting.

    Quite obviously not match fit. He's played one reserve game since August. Too much of a risk with our lack of CB cover. Really can't afford any follow up injuries.

    Rather we risk him than start Perch. My philosophy is, if someone is fit enough for the bench...they are fit enough to start.

    Really really pleased to see the Best/Ba partnership renewed. Wouldn't surprise me to see Obertan have a stormer either.

    I do however wonder if Ben Arfa is throwing a hissy fit off the pitch...

    Maybe Ben Arfa is just still getting back to match fitness? He was out for a year and then played two and a half matches against the top three teams so maybe needed a rest. Plus with West Brom midweek maybe it either this match or that match he was able to play in.

    We don't want Williamson rushed back only for him to pick up another injury and be out for even longer.

    Can't stand Soccer Saturday anymore. Hoilett has done nothing since Blackburn played Norwich, according to Merson. <doh> Obviously doesn't watch Blackburn games.

    Not to mention the typical Stoke bumming. "Playing to their strengths". **** off. Apparently they're different class <doh>
