Best option by far with the players we've got.

Tigger · December 4, 2016

I agree with ya there mate.

BlueToff · December 4, 2016

Yes. Second.

hktoffee · December 4, 2016

We just show up for the last 10 mins, as always.

Still, a good point. Keep it up Everton.

davek · December 4, 2016

We only went to it with nothing to lose. No chance he'll do that again.

ijjysmith · December 4, 2016

Agreed.

But I bet when/if we try it the players somehow balls it up.

Tin-Tin · December 4, 2016

We need to give it a go but im concerned about an aging Barry who is quite slow, starting in a 2.

KaiserEFC · December 4, 2016

Can't be any worse than whatever the hell we play at the moment

Everton_Gary · December 4, 2016

Needs to happen

Difference playing it for a stint in a game to a full 90 minutes.

We need 2 up top, that's the issue

If we ever start with 442 I cant see Barry being one of the middle two, as clever as his passing is we would be out gunned. Also let's all be honest, if you wanted to go two up top Valencia is not the man to join Lukaku, id rather Mirallas did.

valencia is just the man. hard working, can keep the ball and bring lukaku into play.

Admittedly he hasn't played much with Lukaku but I just don't see any partnership between them, no interchange of the ball or working off each other. Just having another forward on the pitch will cause defenders problems because he is actually getting in the box, too often Rom is left alone and everyone has stepped off outside the area.
