Match Preview/Stats/Thread: Newcastle Utd v Bolton Wanderers
By Tyne-Talk
February 25 2011
Newcastle United host Bolton Wanderers tomorrow afternoon with just a point and a place between them. Newcastle have won one, drawn four and lost one of their last six games in all competitions, whilst Bolton have won four, drawn one and lost one of their last six.
Newcastle United manager Alan Pardew has had to contend with one of the Premier Leagues longest injury lists this season as he aims to secure a top ten (and possible European) place and he goes into the game with no less than seven absent players.
Shola Ameobi (fractured cheekbone), Hatem Ben Arfa (broken leg), Danny Guthrie (hamstring), Stephen Ireland (knee), Dan Gosling (knee) and Alan Smith (ankle) are all out, whilst Peter Lovenkrands is a doubt after limping off against Birmingham City last weekend with a thigh injury.
Both Steven (hamstring) and Ryan Taylor (ankle) return to the squad and probably the bench, whilst Nile Ranger and Shefki Kuqi are both waiting in the wings to replace Lovenkrands if he can’t play.
For Bolton, Jaaskelainen will replace Adam Bogdan in goal and Daniel Sturridge, who has scored three goals in three appearances, is back in the squad.
Manager Owen Coyle is without two long term absentees, Zat Knight (knee) and Jlloyd Samuel (thigh), as well as Sean Davis (knee).
Fact: Newcastle United have scored the most goals outside of the top 5 clubs.
Fact: Kevin Nolan needs 1 more goal to reach 50 in his Premier League career, scoring tomorrow will see him celebrate in-front of his former team-mates and fans.

1-1's not bad at half-time, and I think we're good value for a 2-1 victory, as Best has been busy. If he gets one on his foot in the box, I think he'll slot it home. Elmander beat Enrique easily for Sturridge's goal (woeful marking by the Center Backs).
I'd bring Ranger on at 65min, Maybe even Ferguson on for R. Taylor (might force Jonas to swap flanks though).
A draw would suffice, but 3 points will jump us over both Bolton and Sunderland if results hold. Looks like Beckford is finally adjusting (already grabbed a brace today). I think Best has been better though.

He was always going to get a red from that - Was quite theatrical and did look worse from a different angle.

Should bring Ranger on for Lovenkrands, now, and have Ranger play right flank.

I would have taken lovenkrands off straight after he tried to score from a ridiculous angle instead of passing it.
Just to try and hammer it home that passing is the way forward.

Was insignificant, as he was offsides anyway, but true.

I know we have 10 men but this is just plain stupid.
When we are winning the ball we just stand around waiting to lose it again.
GET FOOKIN FOWARD!
You're never going to win just standing in your own half.
Teams CAN WIN WITH TEN MEN.
GET FORWARD!

Steven Taylor on for Jonas, Ranger on for Lovenkrands.
Interesting choice with Jonas. 5-2-2 maybe with Enrique and Simpson as wingbacks?

Who ever it was who called ranger to come on at 65 minutes, well played.
Any idea of what tonights lotto numbers will be?

Nolan nearly scored his second, just at the wrong end.

More proof we need better strikers.
We should have had this game well wrapped up before r.taylor got sent off.
Finishing today was very poor.
And we are not brave enough to go forward with just ten men.
Lots of room for improvement after watching todays display.

Saw Ben Arfa sitting in the stands today.
Does anyone know when he is back? Because we sure as hell need him.

36 points, 1 behind Bolton and Sunderland, with a GD advantage over both of them. Everton and Stoke are 3 behind us, but each with a game in hand (stoke's is against Brom on Monday).
Next Saturday, Sunderland is at Emirates, Bolton host Villa, Stoke is at Upton Park, and we host Everton. Going to be a BIG weekend in the middle of the table.
