What do we think?
Surely it's time we got a result away against one of the top sides.
I hope we start Jerome. He must have done enough to warrant a PL starting place.
I'd go
Bego Wilko Shawcross Huth Wilson Pennant* Whelan Palatious** Etherington Jerome Crouch
*Expect to see Shotton ** Spurs old boy
I'd release Jerome from the back tracking that Walters is expected to do and tell him to play as tight as possible to Crouch.

Who cares, the season is over now anyway.
All that remains is for us to rub Arsenals faces in the dirt again, hopefully costing them a Champions League spot in the process. It would also be nice to relegate Bolton or QPR (preferably both) in one of those last two games of the season.
I am going to Spurs but I know we will lose and I expect to see Walters start yet again! As TP has told us so many times over recent weeks, when a striker is struggling for goals, you just have to perservere until he gets one.

Who cares, the season is over now anyway. I know how you feel. I'm hoping that the 'shackles might come off' now we've got nothing to play for.

If Jerome doesnt start the next few league games then I think its safe to say he has no future at the club whilst Jonny Walters is here.
Fingers crossed Jones DOESNT start.

Pulis will play a "Valencia away" type team on Wednesday. It is one of those games he expects nothing from and sets up the team accordingly.
Very occasionally, we surprise even ourselves, like did at the Lane a couple of years back when it was a pleasure to be there to watch Salif put in his best performance ever in a Stoke shirt to help us snatch a 1-0 win.
I reckon we'll see:
Begovic
Woodgate Shawcross/Huth Upson Wilson
Diao Palacios Delap
Jerome Jones Walters

I think that Pulis will make a few changes for the game. Begovic Shotton - Huth - Shawcross - Wilson Pennant - Delap - Palacios - Walters Jerome - Jones Subs Sorenson Wilkinson Upson Whelan Whithead Etherington Crouch Can see this match being a real struggle for Stoke. 3-0 Spurs.

Expect the Spurs old boys to start ...
Begovic Woodgate Shawcross Huth Wilson
Pennant Palacios Delap Etherington
Jones Crouch
Something along those lines I expect ...

He won't leave Crouch out against his former club if he is even remotely fit enough to start.
Palacios and Crouch will both start I reckon along with Begovic, Shawcross, Huth, Wilson and Walters. After that, it is a bit of a lottery as per the rest of the team.

Nothing to play for we really need another 4 points from 10 games which include man city arsenal newcastle away and spurs so plenty of thought should go into this selection

Dropping Crouch would be a ridiculous decision considering he is our only goal threat.

There is nearly a quarter of the season left and a top half finish to play for.
There is also a chance to look for signs of "evolution" with an eye for better performances next season and a chance to assess which players are our future.

Jones is fucking useless when will people realize this. Jones scored an absolute screamer at White Hart Lane last season, I can definitely see him getting a start.
