I would go for --------------------------------------Gordon------------------------------------ Gardner---------------------O`Shea--------------Brown----------------Bardo ----------------------------------------Catts------------------------------------ ------------------Larsson----------------------------------McClean------------ -----------------------------------------Sess----------------------------------- ----------------------------Campbell------------Wickham--------------------- Ji Ricco Mig Turner Elmo Vaughan Meyler
I would love Gordon to be back for this match..and Campbell as well. I do think it will be the same team that started (apart from Wickham for Bendnter) against Swansea.
Too earlier for a full 90 mins for Campbell ifhe starts 60mins at the most my guess is he will come on after 60mins.
This would be a great team - strong first team presence, a start for Gardner, and would help bring Gordon and Campbell back to fitness. Agree with Campbell not being fit for a full game though, and I think we'll see a bit more caution with one of the other keepers in and Wickham on his own up top.
I can't see the point of putting our third choice keeper in for such an important game..Gordon should be given a long run in the reserves to test his fitness, and if we can get a decent return he should then be sold..
Totally agree MrRaw but will we get anywhere near the 9million we paid for him, somehow i doubt it. I think that the Ming and Westy are more than capable.
Id like to see Ji given a start and then Campbell from the bench. Hope we put a fairly strong team out but keep Wednesday in mind. With the Mancs both out a good run is possible. Be great if Spurs or Liverpool get chelsea in the draw, another favorite gone that way.
Would keep with the same formation MoN has been playing with minimal change ------------------ Mignolet ------------------ Bardsley --- O'Shea ------ Brown -- Richardson ---- Larsson ---- Cattermole ---- Gardner ---- -- Sessegnon ---- Wickham ------ McClean -- subs Turner Westwood Meyler Vaughan Elmohamady Campbell Ji going for a 2-0 win
Sorry Syd but sessegnon has to play for me up with Wickham. If we are 2 goals to the good with 15 mins to go, I'd then give Frazier and Ji a run out. The only clubs in this competition that should scare us now are Spurs and Chelsea. I'd take any of the others right now including the red bin dippers. This is a great opportunity in this years FA Cup for a club like ours and we will surely have the whole NE behind us as the only representative. Lol
