youve gtta be careful nowadays x

If the bellew thread taught me nothing else it taught me that

We're heavy underdogs, but this is a very winnable game imo. I think it'll be a very finely balanced game, with Spurs controlling most of the play, but we should have plenty of threat. I'm looking for some big performances from our key players.

 

[blue to the bone]

I'd take a draw. Away to one of the best sides in the league. Hope we win but if we don't I won't be too despondent. Play well and see what happens

 

[Eggs]

I think we'll start with

Robles

Coleman Williams Mori Baines

Davies Schneiderlin Geuye

Barkely Lookman

Lukaku

Can't see him playing Holgate as I think he was dropped due to making a couple of mistakes and I'd be suprised if he thinks this is the game to bring him back. He may well go with Mirallas instead of Lookman but I think he'll believe Lookman is more of a goal threat, the same reason why I believe he'll go with Davies over McCarthy, as he's more likely to create or score a goal.

...yep, not sure Holgate has featured much since that poor first half against Stoke. I wonder if RK has lost a bit of confidence in him. I wouldn't be surprised if Lookman stands down. I know we will lack width but I also wouldn't be surprised to see McCarthy or Barry start.

This is a real tester for us, there is no way we should be going into this game with an inferior mentality, I would hate to lose this and lose the great momentum we have built up.

I am usually a glass half empty kind of guy when it comes to the Blues but I have a gut feeling we can put on a display today and if we get a positive result we can start dreaming because as we've seen with Man U. and Arsenal yesterday they are not exactly setting the heather on fire above us.

 

[Ollie d]

I've seen the future lads, we win 1-4 with Matt Jackson, Graham Stuart and Daniel Amokachi (2) notching...

 

[Nymzee]

It'll either be the pseudo 4-3-3 we've been playing or a 3-4-3. Absolutely no way we'll go to a 3-5-2 against 3 defenders (if they play their usual formation).

If Alderwiereld doesn't make it it'll be Vertonghen, Dier and Wimmer right? Dier and Wimmer have been crap this season to me.

 

[GwladysBlue]

Got a feeling he is going to drop Davies and go with:

McCarthy Gueye Schneiderlin

Hope not, like.

 

[messymascot]

This is our chance for top 4, win we are right in there, draw and we are in last chance saloon and won't be able to afford another slip, lose and we are battling United and RS for 5th. I think we should play 3 at the back, Gueye, Schneiderlin, McCarthy in the middle and Ross and Rom up top!!

 

[Abraders]

Been working all weekend and will be missing the game too! Gutted,but coyb!

 

[Jamiednm]

The great feelgood factor around Everton, aided by our winning form, emergence of talent, the unrelated-but-contributiory Bellew win, Jamie Carragher's full conversion to Mr. Everton and the implosion of Klopp's RS tees up the match today nicely for Everton to go and royally Everton it.
