This is just plain guessing after the long-ish break. Players may now be fully fit after injuries and niggles (Davidson, Jones, Parry) but here goes:

Lonergan
Jones Chilvers Collins Davidson (c)
Sedgwick Tonge Carter Wallace
Mellor Parkin

Collins probably in team as Irvo seems to prefer him to Youl. Maybe he's after youth? Sedgwick in for defensive capablities over Parry and Carter over Chaplow because Chaplow is now dire and Shumulikoski doesn't have a tad of pace. Parkin in to attempt to be able to size up to their defence.

Any other suggestions?
 
We need to play our strongest line-up and take the game to Newcastle.

The Tinkerman act has gone down like a lead balloon - and it was also interesting to read earlier in the week of Arsene Wenger's opinions about squad rotation, in his opinion you could just about afford to make a maximum of 3 changes per game (and that's with players the quality that Arsenal have) but anymore is a massive risk. At times we've made I think up to 5 changes per game and although it will keep players fresh it will only keep players happy for so long (and in any case there may well be nothing to play for going into the final weeks of the season).

I don't think we have a great record when it comes to hitting the ground running after international breaks but given the opposition over the next few weeks we have to be picking up wins - especially at home. I hope Irvine picks the strongest available line-up and has drilled into them the importance of pressing the opposition and movement ahead of the player in possession because we could find ourselves in real trouble if we continue to tamely surrender points.
 
Nash
Jones Wilson St Ledger Davidson
Parry McKenna Tonge Wallace
Fuller Parkin

Now that wouldve been a quality team!
 
Lonners
Jones Chilvers Mawene Davidson
Shumi
Parry Tonge Carter Wallace
Parkin

4-1-4-1 with Wallace and Parry given licence to attack. Shumi to sit in front of Back 4, Parkin to hold it up and wait for support.

That defensive line has just brought me back to reality... what a shocking back 4 that is...

A player quoted as a star of the future (who can only play half decent in one position)
2 central defenders who turn slower than milk (and one who runs like a turkey which has been half stuffed for xmas and is trying to escape before it gets finished off)
And a crock who will more than likely have to come off before the end of the game

🙁
 
or we could have all the big guys at the back getting smaller as we move on through the team, that would stop any long ball stuff;

Lonners,
Parkin, Brown, Collins, Carter
Sedgwick, Chaplow, Parry, Tonge
Wallace, Elliott

Subs by size too, Henderson, Chilvers, Mawene, Nolan, Davidson, Hart, Deepdale Duck.

I think we should play the Duck from the start !!!

The person that said Jones is bad, you're shambolic. One of the best players we have, like it or leave it.
I wouldn't trust Nolan at centre-half since he is rather unexperienced and can be turned more easily than Chilvers. As for Youl, pace again. Davidson is brilliant when he's not on a stretcher. Cost/reward management with that man.
