Newcastle vs Spurs build-up thread

I'ld play a five man midfield with Marv, Cabaye, Tiote, Jonas and Ben Arfa a touch ahead, then tell cabaye to play his normal game as long as we aren't under a massive amount of pressure. Ba up front.

 

Would play the team Tash said. HBA behind Ba could be so, so dangerous with Ba's link up play. HBA's movement will allow Cabaye slightly more freedom as he'll be in and around where Parker holds. Also, means Parker will have less time on the ball to spray it to Modric, VDV, Bale et al in that position.

Absolutely stoked for this game.

 

1). Assuming everyone is fit, who would your starting 11 be? Choose your one and only final set of 11 only.
Krul
Simpson
Colo
Saylor
Santon
Marveux
Jonas
Tiote
Cabaye
Best
Ba

2). What sort of tactics and sub choices would you choose?

4-4-1-1 with best behind Ba

3). What is your score prediction?

2-2
Include any other thoughts about the game too

Need to draft in Marveux, Santon and Ben Arfa at some stage , these are the better of the positions, but I think this will be a reall test and regretfully believe spurs will be equal with attacking football. Like to think we can nick one here but believe spurs will be up for it too.

 

Spurs strengths are their midfield with bale; but they have a similar weakness in full backs so we need to push bale back to help out ekkoto(?) rather than defend against him. I think if bale is allowed to attack then saylor will be tempted to go out to help, pushing cab and tiote back to cover parker and vdv. obetan cant defend so i'd maybe have marv on the right and try to swich play across the middle. ba is a good header of the ball, cab and ben arfa can shoot accurately from distance so we can mix up crosses and cutting in better than if obertan and best start. on the subject of spurs. Ever think whilst at the inlaws louise looks at jamie and thinks... ****...?
