Kun starts this all day long ... just look at his record against them ... he always scores loads against them. The hat-trick at home when we only scored 3, scored 5 in a game too when Pelligrini subbed him off, wish he had left him on and surely he'd have scored a double hat-trick ...

I agree, start him but it's more of getting him back to full fitness. Give him 60 mins and get him off. I'm not expecting hatricks just game time. He's been in and out for a while so easy does it.

All boils down to can we break down a flat back 9.

Judging by last night's performance by Newcastle it shouldn't be to hard a game.

They will absolutely not play that way against us. It's guaranteed. The only question will be whether we can get one or two shots through a forest of bodies and legs, and into a corner of the goal rather than staight into the keeper's arms. So many teams have now done that to us, and snuck a goal or two on the break, deflected or not, they don't care, that you'd have to be stupid not to do it.

Has Steve Bruce abandoned his trusted 10 at the back formation? He's becoming really adventurous these days.

Sergio looks months away from starting a game we need intensity from the start sergio is just not ready to give us that
