    I think the best we can hope for is a draw, without putting a downer on things.

    Ba's in excellent form and could nick a goal or two. ;)

    But i do think they have to much.

    why does pardew dislike benni so much, really doesnt rate him does he, he always says how he's not right for the game or cant play in a certain position, never how well he is doing.

    Or this...

    Either way, we really need a 5 man midfield.

    <doh>




    and as has been said already, you dont stick with the same team just because it's winning, you anticipate the opposition and put out the team that has the best chance of getting a result against them, regardless of who you drop (although, generally your best players will retain their spot anyways). So Santon should start, along with Marv on the right, and HBA in behind a lone striker

    I'd go with this, or possibly move Raylor to right-midfield (I know, I know - but he could help Simpson out defensively) and have Santon at Left back leaving Jonas to have a bit more freedom to get forward down the left.

    This team, but I would swap Jonas and Marveaux because Simpson will need help with Bale more than Santon would need with VDV/Lennon.

    I dont think pardew will change the squad for spurs, i think he will play the same as wolves (unless people get injured on international)...which i think simpson and raylor are going to get there arse pulled out....we are better of giving santon a run out against wingers with that pace but i dont think he will hoy him at the deep end...

    Plus i can't see Pardew playing Jonas on the other wing. Especially after last week ends wondergoal!!
    I also don't think he'll start with Santon or Ben Arfa. More than like to bring on Hatem on if we go a goal down or something like that.

    I just thought of it when seeing someone's line-up with 'Ba Best' up front, made me chuckle.
