One change for me.

Bellamy for Odemwingie.

Bellamy will offer us more defensively and be another option from set pieces.
 
If the game allows it I'd like to see the big fella come on a few minutes earlier, kind of ease him into first team game speed gradually. But other than that I agree Hilts. remember Manure beat the Arse smell playing they way they played against us, and with less than 50% of the possession.
What they can do, we can do!
 
Mikra - there is no way Campbell will be dropped after last week and Malky wont be playing a 4-4-2 against Arsenal that's for sure.

Malky can't really drop anyone from that last game - except probably Odem.

Bellamy for him is the obvious more defensive option, but he won't last the game.

If defence is again going to be the key, he should go the whole hog and reinstate Gunnar despite his below standard performances recently. He didn't get a look in last week despite being on the bench and I bet that really hurt him.

Wind Gunnar up and give him a start to get in their faces. With Bellamy, Noone, Corny, Kim and Odem (perm any 3 from 5) off the bench will be our game chasers if we're up **** creek later on.

If we do swap Bellamy for Odem, then defensively we've very little on the bench other than like for like replacements (Hudson) to shore the side up if we're fortunate enough to be in front going into the last quarter.

If we're going to get anything from this game, we'll do it exactly the same way as we did against Man U - we'll get it at the end through fresh players.
 
odemwingie has to start for me, whether that means right midfield and bellamy coming in on the left or whatever, i was shocked last week when he went off, hope mutch starts and i think we can have a good go at the arsenal......
