Looks like Parker will start tomorrow but who should partner him?

can you throw in some more options or a neither

Play Sidwell. Boatang was lost last week, absolute shocker!!
At least Sidwell pops up with goals

agreed. Sidwell for me. Boateng was well behind the pace and lunging into tackles. Could have easily had a red whereas I believe Sidwell will have rectified his poorly chosen tackles and is definitely not behind the pace of the game.

Boateng. Easily. He's a far superior player. Once he gets match fit him and Parker will be outstanding in CM

I don't know, did you see the interview with Sidwell where he basically said "I'm going to keep playing the same way and hopefully the refs will judge me kindly"?  Boateng did look shaky last week, but it's natural for a player's first match with his new club, and even bearing that in mind he moved the ball pretty well.  Any of the three of them is a risk to pick up cards.

Got to be Sidwell. Boateng isn't fit yet.

sidwell-more PL experience and he is also pretty decent-lets hope he rectifies his error from last time out against arsenal and pops up with the winner tomorrow

Sidwell now Boateng 5 games from now.

Parker & Taarabt in the middle could be interesting. Probably not ideal vs Arsenal though.

Let's start with Sidwell as he's the safer option until Boateng is fully fit and has had more time to adapt.

How is Boateng going to get match fit, without playing matches?!

Substitutions, League Cup and U21's.

I agree with most, Boateng when he's fit

Boateng

not a doubt in my mind, Boateng

Sidwell more defensive, very good on zone coverage and good headers on dead balls

Boateng

Boateng but Jol will pick Sidwell based on PL experience & most managers find it easier to drop or sub off the new guy (unless they are Berba or Parker type characters)

Sidwell

Sidwell.

I say Sidwell.... Think he is more likely to pop up with a goal... They are hoth hot heads so thats not a comparison. Think Boateng needs to get fit before he starts ahead of Sidwell

I forgot to mention that Im not overly keen on either to be honest.... Ruiz???
