FC Everton v VFL Wolfsburg

[GwladysBlue]

Work today is going to be awful, looking forward to getting into Goodison later.

 

[quasi modo]

This will be a tough start for us tonight.

Hopefully all the luck on Merseyside wasn't used on Tuesday night.

 

[Welton Toffee]

This will be my first game of the season, absolutely buzzing! Hoping for a decent game and them Everton lids to show Wolfsburg ze way to ze cooler. COYB

My team for tonight: Howard; Coleman, Stones, Jagielka, Baines; McCarthy, Besic; Mirallas, Naismith, Lukaku; Eto'o.

Atsu, Pienaar, McGeady on off the bench.

 

[zirc]

I've just realised how hard our group is.

I think we have the toughest group for sure.

Then again any group we would be the toughest group because Everton would be in it.

 

[ste d' indica]

My team for tonight: Howard; Coleman, Stones, Jagielka, Baines; McCarthy, Besic; Mirallas, Naismith, Lukaku; Eto'o.

Atsu, Pienaar, McGeady on off the bench.

Are you thinking Mirallas on the left and Naismith on the right? Or Lukaku on the right and Naismith with Eto'o?

This. If I move quickly I should be home in time to see the last quarter of the game or so.

 

[Mikey_Fitzgerald]

Howard
Coleman, Stones, Distin, Baines
Barry, Besic
Mirallas, Lukaku, Atsu
Eto'o

I'd probably go with that

I'm guessing that Martinez will probably play Robles instead and likely Alcaraz as well. He might also play Naismith and rest Lukaku for Palace on Sunday

We'll see anyway

God I hope he doesn't play Robles.

 

[Mikey_Fitzgerald]

God I hope he doesn't play Robles.

Me too

But I think he will

 

[mightymoyes]

absolutely no reason to change keeper

4-2-3-1

Mirallas (right) Naismith (middle) Lukaku (left) all switching throughout the game. Eto'o up top.

Chico's gash team line-up at 7:04 this evening is likely to be much closer to the truth than it normally is

Robles
Hibbert-Alcatraz-Stones-Baines
McCarthy-Besic
McGeady-Naismith-Atsu
Eto'o
​

is my guess at Chico's jarg ine-up

 

[bluegirl]

Praying we don't see Joel, Hibbert or Alcaraz on that team sheet. Don't understand why you'd play either of them.

Distin Jagielka Stones Coleman and Howard more than cover that.

Atsu, Besic, Pienaar and Gibson could be in contention which is fair enough.

Just hope Bobby doesn't mess up the selection and we make it hard for ourselves.

With a full strength side we should win tonight so why play a weakened one and make it challenge?

Hope not!!! I'd play Coleman at right back but if he rests him I'd like to see Besic there over Hibbert.

Don't see any need to change the back five from Saturday though, they kept a clean sheet!!!!
