I will be violently ill if we cock this up

When it comes to things Everton, I suggest you follow my motto: 'hope for the best, but prepare for the worst' (i.e. have some strong mints handy)

I'm sick of us constantly playing two defensive mids. I feel like it is just guaranteed these days.

Played against great teams? But ok...

Played against a cowboy outfit like this lot and it's a cowardly tactic

Probably should have sacrificed a DM in the first leg, as they parked the bus for 90 mins. Tonight they'll be a lot more open and going for it I suspect. So 2 Dms seems reasonable to me.

Surely the reverse is true? Bring them onto us and hit them hard on the counter.

Davies' energy would be of more use here tonight.

 

[Bob Latchford]

Pickford, Martina, Keane, Williams, Baines, Schneiderlin, Gueye, Klaassen, Rooney, Lookman and Sandro.

Hoping for a midfield diamond

Pickford

baines
Jags
Williams
Cuco

Morgan
Davies
Gana
Davyyyyyy

Rooney
Sandro

No...?
OK then

The OS is a disgrace; it's a dog's dinner of a site. I had to completely re-register yesterday as the previous log in details I've always used returned a message "oops something went wrong".
It's working with the new registration details, but I'm not confident that will last long

Is Cuco playing this evening?

Break up their play and hit them with speed with Lookman/Sandro/Mirallas.

to shine the ball on one side to make it move in the air more - harder to bat against if it's moving. They keep the ball off the ground for the same reason, hence why everyone chucks it around in a circle.

We just run a couple of strides past the line & throw full toss at the head. Did the trick. No more cricket.

 

[Bob Latchford]

Id go for a narrow 4-4-2 diamond as I think we're weak on the flanks.

Pickford
Martina Keane Williams Baines
Schneiderlin
Davies Gana
Klaassen
Rooney Sandro

Wont happen like but that's what I'd do.

said the same before I saw your post - theres 2 of us, although I put Jags in

Pitch looks decent from here. Nothing what I was expecting.

I think some people had to log out and create a new password for the preseason games.

The fear is real.
