Match Thread Everton Vs Man Utd - FA Cup Semi Final - Wembley - Sat 23rd April - KO 17:15

Besic RB I'd of thought?

Also have I just imagined Galloway or does he actually exist?

Only seen Galloway couple of times for u21 since about Feb and he was absolutely terrible especially at Sunderland.
Edit Didn't realise he was injured

Looks to me as if he is set up to park the bus and score on rare counter attacks.

It will play into utd's hands.

Tactical expert as proven over the past two years!

It'll be incredibly, unbelievably smash and grab if we qualify today ...

 

[paulus]

It will be McCarthy right back, or Gibson. Would be mad to split Stones/Jags.

it s Martinez

 

[Tubey]

Joel

McCarthy, Stones, Jagielka, Baines

Gibson, Besic

Lennon, Barkley, Cleverley

Lukaku

I would have thought it was Besic to man Mark Martial.

 

[maccavennie]

Not the worst team in all honesty. We're gonna have to be very defensively focused today which is what we've been lacking.

That's the problem though isn't it mate, we can't defend and we can't focus for any prolonged period of time.

I would have played a simple 1-1-8 formation and hope for a 16-14 win or something similar.

What a team to put out at Wembley.

His own fault not having Barry, should never have played midweek.

 

[Aar_the_Toffees]

I'm very confused. Can anybody please explain the starting line-up to me? It would appear Jags and Stones are CB, with Baines LB. But Gibson RB?

 

[wbn61]

any fan pics up anywhere yet?

 

[Jxg]

Joel

McCarthy, Stones, Jagielka, Baines

Gibson, Besic

Lennon, Barkley, Cleverley

Lukaku

No way.

No fing way is that the line up.

 

[Tubey]

No way.

No fing way is that the line up.

Why?

 

[BigTonyHibbert]

Just a horrible feeling that it'll be all over before half time. That's what we've been reduced to. Hoping for a miracle, as that's what we need! Really hope if we lose he's gone... surely he will be... right?

 

[dublinbluenose]

No Mata for utd as well, route one stuff for utd so.

Defender and midfielder - negative or what?

 

[Aar_the_Toffees]

Play Pennington or Browning at RB. Play Connoly. Not McCarthy or Gibson.
