I know the temptation is to keep it the same, but if RLC is fit then we need to try and find a place for him in the side. He is a class above and if fully fit is the best midfielder at the club (albeit we're borrowing him). Personally I would go with: Ward--Dann--Sakho--PvA RLC--Cabaye--Luka--McArthur Townsend--Zaha Schlupp to my mind is the one to replace as I don't think he seems 100% sure of what he should be doing. Against Chelsea Townsend appeared to be dropping back when necessary to cover Ward, which I could see him doing again, and with RLC's box-to-box qualities we could be devastating on the break. If we come out with energy and passion then this should be a great game.

I put Schlupp at LB and drop PVA. He doesn't seem to have found his feet yet and you might argue that game time provide the form, I wonder if we have time to give him. RLC can wait if necessary, but think of the improvement to the team if he does come in. Shouldn't rush him back too soon IMO. I think home form will help the Toon, but we will score up there.

I think Roy could swap RLC for Shlupp.

It was an enforced change last week and I believe that our strongest team has RLC in it. I won't be unhappy if it's the same starting 11, as the title of the thread states it's merely a suggestion
