Sunderland v Everton. 12th April at 15.07.

Hopefully we come out 2nd half like the fulham game otherwise it's advantage arsenal

it'll still be advantage us considering we'd be 4th, but yeah, looking at the fixtures it would be advantage them.

 

[maccavennie]

Could someone message me a river please as I've finished work early so got a chance to watch 2nd half

 

[Joey66]

Too casual created very little - Osman has to be subbed not in it brushed of the ball too easily need Barkley on and aan other when del boy tires - lets hope we do them like Fulham in the 2nd half but changes will be needed keep the faith!

 

[Tubey]

The same system as against Arsenal would do it. Put Lukaku on the right, Naismith up front, bench Deulofeu, bring on Barkley, drop him deeper, Mirallas on for Osman on the left.

 

[Billy Dean]

3 points please.

bobby'll take care of that 2nd half mate

 

[DualityNSNO]

so he did absolutely nothing right in that half?

Pretty much yeah.

 

[bluenorthwarrior]

In our favour is the fact that Sunderland are so far adrift they need all 3 points so hopefully they can't afford to park the bus and go for a point in second half. Space and our second half aceness will see us through

 

[hktoffee]

Bring on Ross and Mirallas at half time. We need changes now！

 

[Chang Elephant]

Take Osman off, give it ten minutes to assess the improvement and if a sub is required

 

[sheedys left foot]

I've said it before and I'll say it again, we can't have Osman and Naismith in the same starting 11. On the law of averages one or both of them will have a nightmare

 

[Deco]

McCarthy and Barry have been great. We're creating a lot of good chances, just need to finish one of them!

 

[CahillsCornerFlag]

Poor from the little Spanish lid, couldn't believe it when Naismith blazed over.

 

[tadpole]

Cracking game of football - so much at stake for both teams. Feel that our substitutions could be the deciding factor again.

 

[Rook]

i think naismith has actually been decent in this game. wouldnt mind him staying on in the second half. Osman tho? its not that evertonians need to find a scapegoat, but he is and has been gash as a starter pretty much this whole season.

Yea he's been alright. Tried a couple passes/flips to Lukaku in and around the box, they just didn't work.

 

[davek]

I'd actually play Naismith against better opposition than this, teams with confidence in their defenders that allow you to play off their shoulder. He wont do anything with a defensive wall in front of him. No chance.

Him and Osman are not going to crack this nut.

Barkley and Mirallas.
