Watching WBA v Arsenal Pardew playing his strongest side. As we know WBA currently bottom of the Prem but looking at their team they do have a number of decent and experienced Prem players Ben Foster (ex Tivy Town), Gareth Barry, Johnny Evans and Robson-Kanu.
Anybody’s guess how Pardew will view the game against us but if he decides to play a similar strength side we would be struggling. Gut feeling having recently arrived in the hot seat he is not going to want to be remembered as the manager of a WBA team beaten by a fourth tier side so would be surprised if he chooses to follow Klopp’s example of a couple of seasons ago.
