FA Cup

I don't think Martinez prioritised the team in the week for the cup game.

A game on Wednesday and a game in Sunday?! That's ages.

I think he just picked a weird team on Wednesday.

He starting to put his trust in Osman like Moyes did. But to leave Mirallas, Barkley and Del out. cant work that out.

The Osman thing is a worry.

Good squad player, but the gets way too many starts for my liking.

You'd hope that a fully fit Barkley will see Osman drop down like earlier in the season.

Even if that happens, some other hole in the team will appear and in will come osman all over again!

Frustrating.....and I actually like osman!

Everton Football Club has agreed a deal with South African wealth management company, Warwick Wealth, to become an official cup sponsor.

The company will sponsor the Club’s home FA Cup fixtures for the rest of the current campaign and both domestic cup competitions throughout the 2014/15 season.

As one of the Club’s first official cup sponsors, the deal will see Warwick Wealth advertising around the perimeter of the pitch at Goodison Park and will also include sponsorship of exclusive video content on evertonfc.com.

I think the Osman bashing is a little harsh, he had our best chances against Spurs and I think he played well.

I am looking forward to the cup game, hopefully we can get past Swansea and get a home draw in the next round. I agree that having the semi's at Wembley is not ideal, but the FA need to do it, so that the stadium pays for itself, so I can understand it. In some ways the Semi's are better, because it is all fans from the two teams there, rather than the final where every team in the Football Association gets some tickets.

Probably right really.

I don't hate him either. He's been great for us, and still is occasionally, but everyone declines over time, and it's only natural that he perhaps isn't what he was.

Would I put money on him playing on Sunday? Absolutely!

I'd be stunned if he wasn't!

osman really is this seasons neville, at least its an upgrade!

 

[Simon Smith]

Just hope we don't slip up like last year live on tv. Here's hoping Bobby can bring his luck from last year to Everton

sounds like traore might start from robertos press conference..

It's looking like Swansea will have Michu back for Sunday, ready to return, SSN

 

[meagher94]

Think we will easily get through this round and I'm hoping Liverpool do as well because I want us to exact our revenge on them this season!

People always say this.

We never "exact our revenge" ffs. We roll over for them 9 times out of 10.

They're the last team I'd hope for.

Half fit and first game back after ages out. Hope he plays.
