Maybe

_____________Joel
Stones Heitinga Jagielka Oviedo
Deulofeu Osman Fellaini Naismith
________Barkley
______________Kone

We might as well give Joel a game.

I can't see us changing the entire back four but, if Distin isn't 100%, we might as well give Heitinga a run out. We have strong options at both fullbacks too.

Deulofeu and Naismith are fairly obvious. Ideally we wouldn't want to play our three first-choice central midfielders, but we don't have a lot of other options. Junior could come in for Osman and we could switch to 4-4-2 so that both Kone and Vic get a chance to stretch their legs.

Do we go with a strong bench just in case or do we use the likes of Duffy, Vellios, Kennedy and Lundstram?

Not far off. It looks like:

____________Joel
_Hibbert Stones Jagielka Oviedo
Deulofeu Osman Heitinga Naismith
________Barkley
______________Kone

I did say that we wouldn't want to play all our central midfielders. I'm a little surprised that Stones is playing at CB rather than Heitinga in his preferred position, but that will be the reason.

Anichebe not involved at all. According to Physioroom he's not injured, which makes that a curious move. Vellios must be a little disappointed not to be included, especially in the absence of Vic.

Very strong bench (Howard, Coleman, Fellaini, Jelavic, Mirallas, Distin and Baines).
 

with 9 changes we suddenly have a 20 man squad instead of the 14man squad we had last season -
this is the way to go against weaker opposition - if tonight's line-up can't beat Stevenage what chance would they have against Swansea? They have a chance to prove they deserve promotion - great stuff

And we even feel confident again. COYB's.......
 
Regarding streams lids, they're not permitted on here obviously.

However next time you ever watch an Everton game illegally, and I don't recommend it of course, merely use click on the home page of that site and choose the bookmark option on your browser. Its very likely there'll be other games on there too in the future and it will save match threads being invaded by giz a stream lids for every game.
