I am sure its only Shearer and Chopra available up front. No Robert now so possibly Milner left wing.

Carr is also rested due to international duty at end of last season.

Could see their side being

Given

Taylor
Boumsong
Elliot
Babayaro

Dyer
Faye
Butt
Milner

Shearer
Chopra


Bowyer could be left on bench as he looks like he could be on his way to Charlton. Here is the official squad

Given, Harper, Caig, Babayaro, Elliott, Ramage, Boumsong, Taylor, Huntington, Bowyer, Butt, Faye, Milner, N'Zogbia, Brittain, Shearer, Dyer, Chopra.


I think the first XI picks itself to be honest.
