AZ Alkmaar v Everton - UEFA Cup - Thursday 20th Dec

[Namdrater]

I hope our young guns can impress.

 

[heatmeiser]

Don't care who else plays as long as Vaughan starts up front.

Which he probably won't.

But he should do because is feckin ace.

This will be proven in tests.

If the tests involve pliers (not the lesser known half of the popular musical duo), rabbits with claws and half a pound of yam then I would appreciate the youtube.

Would you guys prefer to see an experienced, albeit largely second string, team try to get a result against AZ, something like this perhaps:

Wessels
Hibbert Jags Lescott Valente
Pienaar Carsley Graveson McFadden
AJ Anichebe/Vaughan

Or would you be happy to perhaps sacrifice the result and give the youngsters a go, perhaps with something like this:

Wessels
Hibbert Rodwell Irving Boyle
Kissock Carsley Graveson Vidarsson
Lukas Vaughan

What say thee?

a mixture. i think jags, is still fresh and learning his position at CB so he should play 90 minutes for the discipline and experience of it. Want to see Gravesen play and members of the first team that have had cameo roles - Rodwell, Irving, Boyle, Kissock, Vidarsson and Lukas will doubtfully play any role this season in the first team, so would rather see the bench warmers on the first team getting a run out, as they'll be needed this season and could do with some game time. Should still leave some room for a few kids to get some experience, even if only on the bench.

What you trying to get at Dom?

 

[TheDevils2001]

Probably nothing?

RS are out of Carling Cup, and Bolton has made it through in the UEFA cup!

What you trying to get at Dom?

 

[Sabbo]

TX believe me he is through, he is an ex-blue, shuffled off the GP surface, a dead footballer gone to the ground invisible

Noticed this comment from Moyes on the AZ site:

The Dutchman Andy van der Meyde is still an Everton player. Moyes has not written off the former Ajax forward, although he has hardly ever featured in the first team this season. “He would have played tomorrow night, but unfortunately he has sustained an injury and required stitches in a gash on his leg. He is a good boy. He must keep on working hard to make a comeback to the team.”

[Dom1878]

Anybody else just think Moyes kicked him in the shin so he couldnt play?

Oh, come on if Moyes are interested in doing that he would have break his leg instead!

 

[Lelive]

Play the Youth

Play the Youth and the fring players. We need the big guns to be rested for Sunday.

 

[monty]

As far as VDM is concerned, why is this the first we've heard of this injury, whispers coming out of the club don't match so I find the story very strange.

On the other hand just think of the excitement that must be running through the bodies of those young lads embarking on their EFC careers, oh you lucky sods enjoy yourselves and uphold the true traditions of EFC, unlike some

 

[TheDevils2001]

I am excited to see how many young player would make the starting line up, 1, 2 or could it be 3 (unlikely)!

Heard Moyes might let Rodwell comes on to play some part, lets hope we score 2 goals before 2nd half start!
