Another away day, but now a trip to Wigan for the Boxing day festivities. With Coquelin injured for a long time, along with Arteta, I really have to think about who I want to play in that holding CM position until they return (unless they really impress and solidify the position for themselves).
However, I need to be quite clever with this one, as I have Man Utd 3 days after. So I'm thinking I'm going to have to rest the big guns. COULD be a risk, but what's the point in playing safe?!
Lets go!
Decided to balls to the "rest the big guns" tactic and went for a reasonably strong side, which worked as I won, but it means that Wilshere and Gibbs have picked up knocks.
Scores traded sides (1-0... 1-1... 2-1... 2-2) until Giroud decided that he wanted to be on the score sheet. It's his 2 goals that take me away from Newcastle and a little bit closer to Man Utd.
