What midfielders have we got available for Sunday? We know Tiote & Nolan are sitting this one out, not sure about smithy is he fit? Hopefully he won't stick Loven on the right cause he's ****ing hopeless there. I expect Jonas, Guthrie & Barton to start but was trying to work out who we had left and how we'd line up? Earlier this week Pardew was praising Collo and mentioned he has played as a DM at his previous clubs, do you think Pardew would be brave enough to drop Saylor into defence and push Collo up into Tiotes position for Villa? What do you think?
Raylor's back from his ban, Ferguson could be used on the left if Jose is fit. I'm expecting either Guti Barton Guthrie Fergie (if Jose is back) or Raylor Barton Guthrie Guti (with Fergie LB if Jose is out)
Ryan Taylor is available now I think, also if Ferguson is alright after taking a knock the other day he could play him on the left and Jonas on the right. Edit- beaten to it!
