Howard
Coleman Jags Distin Baines
McCarthy Barry
Mirallas Barkley Pienaar
Naismith.

That will be the team. Deulofeu will come on and score 1 or 6 and Traore will come in and run funny.
We will win though, I've got 50 quid on both teams to score and Everton to win so yeah.. We best win.

If they play 4-4-2 and we set up to counter attack them we'll do them, assuming Deulofeu at least makes the bench, and Kev, Barkley, and Aids make up our offensive 3 mids. Barry and James can mop it all up and we can outnumber them on the break.

I want to see Pienaar in there so he can stick it to his old club. Plus he looked good against Villa when he came on (dat assist!).

if traore doesnt play I cant see us winning tbh, will be a draw
 
If we can get four points from Spurs and Chelsea (3 pts from Palace in between) then we have a relatively soft period of matches. This will be a great time to get the squad back to full health for the Arsenal game April 5th. From there it's a 5 game sprint to the finish that I'd back us in. COYB
 
Coleman back, delboy back.........hoo hoo we will riot. Tottenham are not actually very good, actually. They miss Howells still
 

We never ever seem to win these types of games and as a result we never last the distance and finish fourth.

I hope it's different this time. All I've ever known Everton to be is a "nearly" club at the best of times. Last year we only "nearly" got that massive 3 points at Spurs that could have thrown us right into the mix for the CL spots. Even when we actually finished fourth, we didn't make the CL proper.

That's why I think Sunday will probably be a draw. It would certainly be in keeping with the recent past. I'm hoping Martinez can conjure up a bit of tactical genius and get us the three points though. I'd be utterly ecstatic. Huge game.

That's just it though isn't it, Martinez looks like he can get that extra couple of % out of our players and instil a fearless attitude in to them. I think it depends on who is fit for the Spurs game but I think we can go there and win. We've missed some of the players that made our start to the season so good, and in particular games away at Arsenal and Man U. They're coming back in to the team now, it's going to be a very interesting run in!
 
Martinez' approach to these games means we'll deffo do better than we used to. Oviedo v man u. the new everton

Good points mate.

I hope they give us the boost we need. Win this and the derby will be long forgotten.
