team v stoke

who would you play against stoke ?
bearing in mind they are a strong team (tall aswell i think)

id play

.......................heaton...............................
matthews........hudson...........blake........kev
burke.............oli.........witts..............bellamy
................parkin.......chopra..................

no that team is to small especially the bk 4 the long the throw ins that come we would just fold people like gypes u need in there for this game big strong and good in the air

I'd go 4-3-3

Heaton

Matthews
Hudson
Gypes ( riggot if possible)
McNaughton

Burke
Olifinjana
Whitts
Bellamy

Parkin
Bothroyd

I'd leave chopra on the bench for this one becuase Stoke are such a physical team and very tall I think bothroyd and parkin could do a good job against the Stoke defence. Chopra could come on around the 60-70 minute Mark and run their defence wild.

Bellamy won't play that's for sure, too much of a risk. We need him fit for the Norwich game on the 15th.

burke left /matthews right why not?

personally, id play the 2nd string..... i know as fans we want to win every game.... but in my opinion the league and our form or lack of it is far more important than a cup run.......

Bellamy wont play
and i hope he dosnt play

.....heaton.....
blake..hudson..gypes..kev
matthews...oli..witts..burke
...parkin...bothroyd
