Fellaini misses Norwich game

[Christiffa25]

I'd rather he missed Norwich than Arsenal like, just hope we get Gibson & Mirallas back because the midfields looking a bit short on numbers.. Can we recall Barkley?

Yes he can be called back. My question is if we called him back...and say used him off the bench till January... If we then actually strengthened in jan..can he go back to Sheffield wed for rest of season???

Tbf I think the 6/7 games he's played so far will have done him a world of good. 15 games or so even more so...tricky situation really what's best for the lad vs what's best for our team right now!!??

With nev's injury were getting shorter and shorter of options in CM. Gibson still gonna be a few weeks away from starting games risk free. I just don't rate hitzleberger that much... Would prefer to be blooding Barkley.

Bad news we're going to miss him and Norwich are in really god form.

 

[bignev23]

We`ve been without him before and done ok.Same with arteta and pienaar.

We'll be playing this team imo:
Howard

Coleman Jagielka Distin Baines

Naismith Hitzlsperger Osman Oviedo
Pienaar
Jelavic
Not too bad and even without Fellaini, should be enough to beat Norwich at Goodison. They gave United a good game and won but I still would fancy a backlash from us.

 

[Abraders]

For me it has to be

Coleman Jagielka Distin Baines
Pienaar Gibson Hitzlspeger Oviedo
Mirallas Jelavic

If Gibson is still out though then Osman in the middle, though him and Hitz is a bit meh

Anyone else quite excited to see Nace behind Jelavic? feel Jelavic works better with some who works hard behind him (cahill) which frees up more space which Jela preys on!

Wouldn't be completely averse to it. Rather that than see him on the right again.

Are we expecting Mirallas back for this one?

I don't think Felli missing Norwich is the end of the world tbh. For a game like this we really need to sort out our defensive problems. Would be good to see Distin in there.

 

[Bungle]

I think yesterday's team with distin in for heitinga and mirallas in for fellaini would do me

Cahill will be back in January anyway.

Cahill will be back in January anyway.

I hope not, we've played so much better since he left.

Fellaini is a striker now by the way

Norwich have the 5th worst away defence in the league with 12 goals conceded. That puts them behind Southampton, Fulham, Villa and Spurs. They also have the joint worst away attack (3 goals scored) along with Villa. It's on!

 

[toffee-fellaini]

Fellaini, Bellew and Distin haha
