:-) merry xmas all

I don't expect one over chrissy so I thought id make a thread


Is anyone not confident of a massacre?
 

Apparently Chico said he's given us Christmas off, didn't feel it was right to inflict a gash match preview on us over Christmas.

I for one appreciate his gesture.

Could someone else make one that we can judge?

Sunderland will have 11 players.

Everton will have 11 players.

Everton are boss.

Everton win.

Easy this match review s**t.
 
Everton manager Roberto Martinez could receive a late Christmas gift with left-back Leighton Baines set to be in contention against Sunderland.

The defender has missed the last five games after suffering a broken toe and will provide added impetus for Everton as they look to improve on their fifth-placed positioning.

Blues striker Nikica Jelavic is also expected to be available having missed Sunday's 2-1 win over Swansea with a minor hamstring injury.

Midfielder Steven Pienaar and defender Sylvain Distin both sustained knocks at the Liberty Stadium but neither should be ruled out, while veteran full back Tony Hibbert is also over a knee problem.

Sunderland manager Gus Poyet will have to sweat on the fitness of John O'Shea who faces a fight to be available for the trip to Goodison Park.

The Republic of Ireland international is currently undergoing assessments on shoulder damage sustained in the Black Cats' goalless stalemate with Norwich at the Stadium of Light on Saturday.

O'Shea defensive partner Wes Brown is unavailable as he serves the first of a three-match ban following his late red card against the Canaries.

Poyet is still with goalkeeper Keiren Westwood and defender Carlos Cuellar who are both ruled out with shoulder and hip injuries respectively.

Although I think we really should win this comfortably, Lukaku looks to have too much to do in recent weeks up front on his own. Any chance that we could actually go 4-4-2 with both Jelavic & Rom starting? Obviously the midfield would need to be reshuffled to accomodate this, and no one really deserves to be dropped at the moment, but our hand might be forced anyway if Pienaar doesn't recover from his knock.
