Been away too long mate! Never, ever, heard anyone call a van that! Only in England, well Liverpool really, could "Trannie" mean 3 completely different things ffs.

Anyrate, well off topic. Ace preview Cheeks.
 
I'd like to see us play 3 in the midfield Barry, McCarthy and Besic. Then a front 3 of Rom (or Kev) through the middle, Atsu down the left and Kev (or Rom) right. Doubt that we'll see that though as it would mean dropping both goal scorers and our best player from last week. A more likely lineup will be.......

Howard
Coleman Jags Distin Baines
Barry McCarthy
Mirallas Naismith Pienaar
Lukaku​

Subs, Joel, Stones, Garbutt, Besic, Osman, Mcgeady, Atsu,

Without Pienaar though the pacey players won't be as effective. He's fantastic at getting the ball on the half turn and moving the team up the pitch and that's where he can bring the faster players into play. Can't drop him after his performance last week.

I think our best bet is to use Barry and Besic's long passing to bypass that part of the pitch and hit balls into Mirallas and Atsu. It would however be nice if Lukaku could drop deep and get it - this is where Naismith excelled last time we played them and a part of Lukaku's game he needs to improve.

It will be interesting to see what Roberto does. I think he will play Pienaar too.
 

I think that a front 3 of Lukaku, Naismith & Mirallas with Pienaar behind them and McCarthy & Barry/Besic holding would be the best option

That front 3 destroyed Arsenal last time with Barkley pulling the strings behind them. Obviously, it may not work again but think it may be our best option as their defence has not changed since then (Sagna aside)

I think this will be the team.

Which is harsh on Geads but oh well.

Osman sitting out two games in a row is odd too. Oh well.

You already got more luck than me mate. Had to cancel my trip at the last moment due to private/family circumstances. Enjoy the experience, there's not much that beats walking into Goodison for the first time. ;)
