Removing Fernandinho, Silva and Navas removes both speed of play AND speed of thought, hence the drop in tempo.

Yep, exactly.

This is what I HATED about Roberto's occasional tactics last year to have Barry and Garcia along Yaya in the midfield...just takes away any sharpness going forward.

Vinnie,clichy zaba,sergio......injured? Resting?? Talking to barca???
Anybody know where they are??

On the bench?

Know we made a lot of changes, but Silva's absence is most noticeable. I hope we can cover if he's ever (God forbid) injured.

Newcastle must be wanting to curl up and die at the prospect of facing us first game, at ours.

their defence is cowering behind their sofa's as we speak.

Like I used to do at Lou ferignos hulk in the early 80's?

Can anyone remember that thread ages ago along the lines of playing Bridge on the wing or bellamy at right back? I cant remember.

David James up front (IIRC)!

I actually think Navas coming off was the turning point.
