Lineup

What do think the lineup will look like? What's happening with Solano, Lee and Goma? Hope we can get the services of Solano!

ten men in black and white and Given resplendent in Green ;-))

I'm assuming everyone is fit. What about Barton? apparently in full training so will he be risked? If he is... then who makes way? Back 3 or 4?

I reckon it'll be a 'flexible' 4-4-2:
Given
Barton/Griffin Goma Hughes Domi
Solano Dyer Lee Acuna Bassedas Speed Cordone
Shearer Lua Lua

... with 7 across the middle

According to Metro Barton and Solano are definitely fit and Lee and Goma probably.

It should be 4 at the back, mainly as Goma and Hughes should be up to taking care of munchkin and Quim (sic).

Not sure YBR will put LLL on from the start. I can still see Don Cordone backing Shearer up, and hopefully giving room for Solano and Dyer to wreck havoc.

Griffin should start as Barton won't be match fit yet, and Bassedas might be given a start to see how he takes to a real game of football.

Conclusion: quietly confident.

According to Nufc.com Goma hasn't trained this week. Not good. Expect a surprise recall for Centre-partin'

Goma apparently not fit, Caldwell likely to play.

Fair comment Geordie - not quite meself today, can't think why.

Caldwell is good, but Goma would fit the arial threat of Quinn. I'm a little nervous actually....
