[Hangleton]

they won 4-0 at the weekend and missed a penalty

I can see us going through on penalties.

I am not surprised. After playing Everton, they would be imbued with a sense of inspirational talent motivations. In particular, I think Cuco was that source of inspiration.

 

[Scouse]

Can anyone recommend a decent bar in Alcudia to watch this game in?

 

[Groucho]

Obligatory optimistic post;

We take a lead into the game, and any goals we score are away goals.

Ta lads, fume away again.

 

[macdog]

Obligatory pessimistic post.

We concede in the first minute.

I don't want to even think about this game; I'll have an asthma attack.

 

[BlueToff]

Gonna be very tough this.

If we get a goal nice and early that should be enough I think, but they'll be well up for it.

I see us starting with something like....

Pickford/Stek

Holgate
Keane
Williams
Baines (C)

Schneiderlin
Gueye

Rooney
Klaassen
Lookman/Mirallas

Sandro


Stek/Pickford
Jagielka
Mirallas/Lookman
Martina
Barry
Davies
Calvert-Lewin

Be happy with that team pal. Tough game but right attitude from the players we will win. Good with Rooney and Klassan in there as they did it last year

No presser today for it?

 

[McBain]

Goals goals goals and win for Everton

 

[Charles Hawtrey]

I can see a 0-3 result tomorrow.... away win - we are miles better than dees!

 

[Niapper]

When is the presser?

 

[HongKongToffee]

I just hope the blatant lack of pace in the side isn't an undoing.

Pace is a good tactic playing away from home for the away goals.

I just cannot see the way the team is set up to have the tactic of hitting teams on the break with the lack of pace in the side.

 

[BlueToff]

I know it's hard to tell exactly, but I can't see any of Kenny, Lennon, McCarthy and Besic (though all trained earlier) in that.

Robles seems to be going, though.
