    I've been pleased by how we've played lately.

    I haven't we are too easy to score past actually far too easy.

    Stoke have a better defence and will destroy us

    Big game, can't keep being unlucky, teams that are constantly unlucky tend to get relegated so we need to put three points on the board. If Jack is fit I'd go same again but with Dummett at CB and bring Haidara in.

    I see we're appealing the red though so might not need to shuffle the defence.

    I'm not going to predict games anymore.

    But line up -

    ---------Mitrovic-----Perez-------
    Wijnaldum------------------Sissoko
    --------------Anita--Colback----------
    Haidara--Colo/Lasc--Mbemba--Janmaat
    --------------------Krul-----------------

    I don't want Tiote to start. Anita is far better on the ball.

    Dummett also oot. Haidara back plz.

    I'd imagine the appeal will be successful if there is any common sense, but then it is the FA...

    If we can I'd just go with the same team, everyone played well. We look much better with Dummett, its just a defensive thing, he is just better than Haidara and that is what we need right now. I know Tiote has not been pulling up trees, but he has now had some minutes under his belt and should be getting there match fitness wise. I'd have wanted Anita but now I think I'd like to see Tiote to see if there is anything left in there.

    Otherwise I think we are good to go. Gini and Sissoko are hitting top form. With that will come goals, and also chances for Perez and Mitro. I do think when SDJ is fit he can be a big benefit in terms of providing a different option to Perez.

    I think we will win this. They seemed quite determined yesterday, I think we have turned the corner and we are going to be a threat in the upcoming weeks to whoever we play.

    I hope we pick ourselves up for this one.
    It will be a tight game though.

    Even the moronic simpletons at FA headquarters will see that was never a red, so unfortunately Colo will be back.

    Must win for McLaren for me. **** being unlucky, some of the worst defending imaginable has happened under his watch. If he doesn't win, sack him off and get the lumper in like we should have done after Pardew. We have had the worst start ever, the excuses can't last much longer.

    Sorry guys but we are last season's qpr! We are losing week in weekout and saying we are playing well or better.

    We are in serious trouble and I think that Stoke will run right through us.

    I actually like mclaren but if it doesn't change in a game or two we need to sack him. Flores would be possible in my opinion and he's a class manager

    Colback wont play, he left the stadium of plight on crutches. Scans will probably be done today to know the extent of his injury.

    but I would put Anita and Tiote in first half, then whoever's on a yellow take off, depending on score and bring De Jong or Thauvin on for a whole 45 and move Wiji or Sissoko into the middle.

    I kinda wanna see colo out the side and Lasc given a couple of games, he hasnt looked bad when his come in, i also think its hard for a player to come into a game when they havent started.

    Hopefully the players have a bit of home confidence after Norwich and we get all three points, setting us up nicely for Bournemouth. Chelsea Thumping stoke wouldnt hurt too

    Even if Colback was fit for the Stoke game he won't play as he picked up his 5th booking of the season on Sunday. Tiote and Anita in the middle for me.

    Tiote and anita in the middle offer us nothing it's been shown too many times

    Shaqiri and affelay will be rampant and stoke ate going to simply walk through us like when they get any ball

    Arnautovic will be on the end of anything in the box and Elliott can't save anything st all.

    Seriously we are ****ed

    Unless Aarons is fit what option do we have? Thauvin? He just doesn't look ready. Pissed me off when he bottled that tackle in the derby. Plus would you really want to move Sissoko or Gini inside at present, they are on fire in this diamond.

    Honestly yes two dms deviod of most aspects of the game including pace would be a disaster. Id give Thauvin another chance rw and play Moussa in the middle with anita not tiote hes beyond a joke.

    It's just my opinion and Sissoko can play that role well, its actually where he wants to play so he'll raise his game to prove a point if anything.

    If we lose this everything will be over. The good thing is about McClaren is above all I think he has some sort of honour about him and will quit before things really begin to smell of ****, the sort of smell that 800,000 rotting, machete mangled Rwandan corpses couldn't do justice.

    Appeal successful. Great, doesn't change the result on Sunday though does it? Punish that referee.

    The problem we have with Stoke is that they are even more inconsistent than we are (because they sometimes win). They aren't the Stoke of old and can play good football sometimes. One week they look like Bracelona and the next they look like Barking Reserves. Sadly for us, last week they looked like Barking Reserves <doh>
