Predicted line up vs Arsenal?

[ianefc]

Barkley will start IMO 2 of his best performances for us have come in that stadium

 

[bicycleheader]

Robles
Seamus Jags(Stones) Distin Baines
Macca Barry
McGeady Osman Pienaar
Big Rom

Ross and Deulo on in second half.

 

[toffeejack]

The only positions open for debate are Osman/Barkley behind Lukaku and Robles/Howard. Personally think Martinez will stick with Robles as he has thus far. Think Barkley should start but Osman might.

Robles
Coleman Jagielka Distin Baines
Mirallas McCarthy Barry Pienaar
Barkley
Lukaku​

think it will be this but naismith instead of barkley

 

[parkendkev]

Howard
Coleman Jagielka Distin Baines
Mirallas McCarthy Barry Pienaar
Osman
Lukaku

 

[N.S.N.O.]

Robles (i think we should be playing howard)
Coleman. Stones distin Baines
Mirallas Barry McCarthy Pienaar
Osman
Lukaku

hopefully Jags will be back, but i don't see it...Osman will prob play, but Naismith did ok in that role for a while against west ham, so Martinez might leave him there....barkley wont start, he's not playing with enough confidence at the minute, and we cant afford to give the ball away cheaply against arsenal...
mirallas or deulofeu on the right might be a coin toss, just think mirallas edges it...but be great to good options like deulofeu on the bench to freshen things up second half....

I certainly wouldn't complain if Naismith started behind lukaku, but I think it's unlikely. If lukaku starts then he won't last the whole match and we'd need someone to bring on for him.

 

[Dario Terracotta]

Don't think for one minute he'll play for a draw,I think he'll go for this one,lining up with this,

Howard
Coleman Jagielka Distin Baines

Barry McCarthy

Mirallas Pienaar

Barkley

Lukaku

Subs:Robles,Hibbert,McGeady,Deulofeu,Naismith,Osman,Stones

you can't say that for sure, not at this point in time anyway, not even if you're the physio. we need him starting though, saving him for the final 30 when the game could be up by then wouldn't make good logic.

biggest game of the season so far this, let's hope he's fit enough to play longer than a standard sub length time.

 

[Abraders]

Howard
Coleman Jagielka(?) Distin Baines
Barry Mcarthy
Mirallas Pienaar
Osman
Lukaku

That's my guess.

How about Deulofue in behind Lukaku instead of Barkley(out of form) and Osman.

I'd put a large amount on Lukaku starting mate.

And Robles in nets .

Love it, not heard that saying for a while
Not bad for a scummer were you living mate?
