XI against Shelski

[pfim]

What we will see? If Gibson is out, I think you see a Neville/Osman CM with Jagielka at RB, or Heitinga/Osman.

 

[Brownie]

The main thing for me is Shay Cole hopefully coming back in, solves a lot of problems for us.

I'd probably go with something like:

Cole Jag Dis Baines
Osman Hitz
Anichebe Pienaar Oviedo
Anichebe
​

I thought he played a bit of LB earlier on in his career?

did he?? i bet he was overlapping like a b,astard

 

[Goat]

did he?? i bet he was overlapping like a b,astard

I could be wrong like.

Thought he did tho.

 

[Dwyer_EFC]

Barkley will start.

....against someone soon.

ive no idea, just the thought of him as a full back is funny, mind you unsworth and julian dicks played full back, back in the days when you didnt need to be able to run

Shay Cole? Thats worse than chebes in my book. Please sit on naughty step.

 

[paulbefc]

Well if its moyes its going to be a cautious one

Probably

Howard

Neville Jags Distin Baines

Naismith Osman Hitz Pienaar

Anichebe

Jelavic

This is providing none of the injured are healed aswell as Gibbo.

Think we'll get turned over or a 0-0 draw

I expect this side tbh. Just emphasises how big the three points were yesterday. This may not be an enjoyable watch.

Need a sh*t load of luck to win this and I expect it to be a little bit 04-05 style. The pessimist in me can't see a hope in hell for us and an injury to Baines/Pienaar would would be more tremendous banter on the injury front and no surprise. A point's a great result with that XI and keeps us in touch with fellaini back for the barcodes.

Goodison has a big role to play for this and Jelavic needs to be bang up for it.

 

[EFC Si]

The lack of key players is worrying for this one. The best side would be IMO:

---------Howard-------------
---Neville--Jags--Distin--Baines
--Naismith--Osman--Hitz--Pienaar
----------Anichebe-----
---------Jelavic----------​

So many with Hitz in their starting XI, don't really see it against Chelsea. Might as well pave a path to our goal with an Osman/Hitz pairing.

 

[evilwebby]

At this point it's a question of who's available.

Back 4 pretty much picks itself, with the only decision being do we start with Distin or Heitinga

Osman & Pienaar are certain to start. There is no way he will start with 2 strikers, so there the remaining THREE midfield places will come from:

Naismith
Hitz
Oveido
Barkley


up front he'll persist with Jelavic, though the lad obviously needs a rest (which he will get).

Bench will be:
Mucha
Heitinga/Distin
Oveido/Barkley
Gueye
Anichebe

Id prefer this thsn Neville at RB snd Hitz centre mid.

Im used to see us going forward with a RB now. Even Hiibbert always get on the front foot. Neville gets up there ****s himself and passes it backwards.?he must have done this 10 times yesterday.

Coleman just goes for it and as i sed Hibbert at least throws the crosses in!

did Neville assist the game winner? against wigan?
