Match Thread Everton v Man.United Carabao Cup - Preview, Match Report & MotM Poll

[f.t.r.s]

Win this, brentford at home in the semi, then beat spurs to lift the cup whilst poor son cry's...

 

[superkeeper]

Tough on Holgate who I think has done well recently. Only worry with Coleman back is how fit is he

 

[ToffeeTim]

We hoping they'd rest Fernandes but its up to us to go out and perform. We need to be compact and not allow their counter attacks.

 

[Kev The Rat]

Tough assignment here I can’t see us winning but you never know

 

[BlueDraka]

Very surprised Seamus is back in. Holgate has done well. Gomes Davies quite similar. Maybe he kept holgate on the bench in case the midfield gets over run. Haven't seen the team but assume holgate is on the bench if not playing

Committment, desire, take your chances, and a smidgeon of luck....(easy isn't it?)

You can do it blues.

Should have left the back 4 as was.

 

[Oh how the maggots taste]

Early days, but this might be our biggest game of the season. The next year or two is about getting closer to breaking the Top 6, and winning some silverware. A victory against United would be a massive boost anyway, but imagine we then get Brentford in the semi's. Hope Carlo is letting the lads know what a massive opportunity this is.

Nice one Carlo, happy with that

 

[maccavennie]

Coleman should be super fit now as he wasn't rushed back. Ancelotti said he could have been picked for Leicester and Arsenal.

If Gomes can somehow squeeze a half decent game out of himself he can be the one who sets the tempo for us and be a lot more careful with the ball so we aren't turning it over too often.

 

[Super Kevin sheedy]

We are winning this game

3-1

 

[Charles Hawtrey]

Who is playing DM? Hopefully Coleman/Iwobi will gell on the right?

He might be thinking he has to start resting them in rotation. Perhaps Keane gets a rest at Sheffield and Holgate slots in centreback. We can’t afford any more injuries.

 

[R.Reddington]

Coleman will get targeted here.
