carlmc25 Posted August 7, 2008 Report Share Posted August 7, 2008 So who do we think is going to play (assuming we don't sign anyone in the next couple of days!). I reckon it's most likely to be: --------Howard------------ Yobo Jags Lescott Baines ---------Neville------------ --Arteta Osman Pienaar-- ---------Cahill------------- ---------Yakubu----------- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Josh Berno Posted August 7, 2008 Report Share Posted August 7, 2008 (edited) Cahill wont play I don't think they will want to take risks on him. Edited August 7, 2008 by Josh Berno Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J*A*C*K*E*L*Z Posted August 7, 2008 Report Share Posted August 7, 2008 if that was the case i would put Jags RB an yobo bk in the centre I wouldnt risk cahill and would play vaughan up top if he is not susspended Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carlmc25 Posted August 7, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2008 Thats the only team we can put out Carl, unless DM calls on some youngsters. We dont have any other players. yup! the only other option is to bring in Rodwell in DM, but I think Moyes will be slightly relieved that he'll be able to play all 4 of our best defenders to keep everyone happy (Yobo, Jags, Lescott and Baines!) so he'll probably use the excuse to move Neville into DM.

Adam Posted August 7, 2008 Report Share Posted August 7, 2008 I would play Neville at RB and Yobo in a defence midfield roll. Won't play Cahill as other people have said as they wont risk him they will save him to a couple of games in so they can say 'Having cahill back is like getting a new signing' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevO Posted August 10, 2008 Report Share Posted August 10, 2008 i think we'll see either rodwell or gosling make their full début. probably gosling i think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Posted August 11, 2008 Report Share Posted August 11, 2008 If this weeks deals come off my team would be 4-4-2 .......... ________________ HOWARD ____________________ NEVILLE ____ YOBO _____ JAGIELKA ______LESCOTT ARTETA ____ M'BIA _____ OSMAN _______ PIENAAR _____________ LOVE _______ YAKUBU _________ Smith, Baines, Valente, and four lads on the bench. That team should be good enough to get us off to a winning start. Tho i think M'bia is at the olympics isnt he. ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DangerMouse Posted August 11, 2008 Report Share Posted August 11, 2008 (edited) ^^ I dont think Lescott will play Left Back..... He hasnt played there last couple of games.... well not a full game anyway... He didnt plat left back at all on Saturady..... unless DM already has his mind made up to play him......who knows Edited August 11, 2008 by DangerMouse Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Posted August 11, 2008 Report Share Posted August 11, 2008 Because we had so few players he had to look at other alternatives, but if those players come in before the game Baines will miss out again. Could even go 4-5-1 .... add Smith in midfield and leave Love or Yak on the bench. Its a strong enough side to put out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DangerMouse Posted August 11, 2008 Report Share Posted August 11, 2008 I dont know the back four was pretty much as is on saturday...... Neville - Lescott Yobo Baines statded with rodwell in holding role.. changed at half time to Neville lescott Yobo Valente with Jags in holding role... Jogs and Rodwell were a bit shit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Posted August 11, 2008 Report Share Posted August 11, 2008 Neville - Lescott Yobo Baines Jags was our best centre half last season. He will play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue4Ever Posted August 11, 2008 Report Share Posted August 11, 2008 well if your happy with that....lets not bother with the new signings.. that wasnt the point mate, we obviously do need another defensive midfielder but Rodwell done a better job than any of our other defensive midfelders would have done.

DangerMouse Posted August 11, 2008 Report Share Posted August 11, 2008 Other defensive midfielders???????? The lad is a good prospect and PSV are a v good team but he wasnt good enough Saturday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c1982 Posted August 11, 2008 Report Share Posted August 11, 2008 Rodwell was quality on saturday, I believe he'll have some impact this season. M'Bami won't be playing sat if we sign him as he's at the olympics, so it's jags or rodwell - unless smith signs and we pop him there? (presuming we play a holding midfielder).

Oztoffee Posted August 12, 2008 Report Share Posted August 12, 2008 (edited) Just as a matter of interest, I had a look at the Blackburn fan site to get a view as to how they are thinking. A quick tally up of opinions gives 2 Blackburn to win, 4 to draw and 6 for a Blues win. They are bemoaning the loss of 3 of their best players from last season but have partly cheered themselves up by the signing of Robinson. The influx of 2 ex-Manure reserves cuts no ice with them. We think we have problems! Edited August 12, 2008 by Oztoffee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tmaceverton404 Posted August 12, 2008 Report Share Posted August 12, 2008 Just when our patience couldnt be pushed any further, I stumbed across this bit of news. http://www.goal.com/en/Articolo.aspx?ContenutoId=814998 "The 26-year-old, who sealed his £2million move from Borussia Dortmund in April, will thus miss Everton's Premier League opener against Blackburn Rovers and could spend up to six weeks on the sidelines." Just what we needed, only positive that can come out of this is that Moyes may step up his ambitions to sign another Midfielder, no real option but to make some form of signing.

Heather_6 Posted August 12, 2008 Report Share Posted August 12, 2008 IMO Whichever players we actually have left will play eg neville, jags, lescott Also, I reckon the bench will have rodwell, gosling and baxter Hopefully Moyes will give them a chance when we are winning 3-0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DangerMouse Posted August 12, 2008 Report Share Posted August 12, 2008 Im sure Gosling and Rodwell will be playing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iggy Posted August 12, 2008 Report Share Posted August 12, 2008 (edited) Insted of who? take a look at our midfielders......... Now then , Hibbert is out too so Neville will almost certainly be Right back, Cahill, VDM and Pienaar are all out, so there is a good chance that at leats one of them will start against Blackburn. Oh, and as for 7 on the bench, well lets just not go there! Edited August 12, 2008 by iggy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
