markjazzbassist Posted October 15, 2016 Report Share Posted October 15, 2016 I'm expecting 3 points, I hope we carry on our second half City performance and have a go. I really hope baines is fit.

Aidan Posted October 15, 2016 Report Share Posted October 15, 2016 I think he didn't play him against City because he preferred Cleverly in a more defensive role, not because of his form. I expect him to be back and I expect him to come back with something about him. Would have never have seen RM drop him, I do like Koeman's resilience. nutmegwolf203 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest rusty747 Posted October 16, 2016 Report Share Posted October 16, 2016 Just don't waste the point won at City by dropping points at Burnley lads. The job now is to stay in or around the top 5 until January so that we are attractive to the players on the list that Steve Walsh is slowly compiling. nutmegwolf203 and ForEverton2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finn balor Posted October 16, 2016 Report Share Posted October 16, 2016 Big plus is we haven't conceded more than one goal a game in the prem. we need to do more creatively and put teams to the sword. We haven't got going in our last few games and if you do that especially away from home if gives the weaker team more confidence and your on the back foot. If we start off positive then we should beat these by two or three. 1-3 im going for. Rom,bolsaisie and kev Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I expect him to be back and I expect him to come back with something about him. Would have never have seen RM drop him, I do like Koeman's resilience. Barkleys form hasn't been great. I would be upset with cleverly starting as the number 10 with bolasie Rom Kev/Gerry out wide. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palfy Posted October 19, 2016 Report Share Posted October 19, 2016 Stekkers Jags. Williams. Mori Coleman. Oviedo Ghana. Barry. Mirallas Bolasi. Lukaku No Barkley for me not fitting in to Koemans way of playing he seems to still want to be playing the free role he had with Roberto but koeman is saying to him this the way you play for me do it or your out.I'd like to see us play the 3 at the back I really think we have the perfect squad for that system were solid all the way down the middle of the team which would allow Coleman and Oviedo the freedom to get forward and link up with Mirallas Bolasi and Lukaku Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

markjazzbassist Posted October 19, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2016 I've got a horrible feeling that this is the end of his career at the level he was at before last season. he hasn't been able to bounce back from this one. i hope he comes back, otherwise its another massive hole. Garbutt looking like shit in the championship. Oviedo not prem quality, Galloway not a LB, FFS we might need to buy one in January. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would like that too now that baines is out. Better defensively since they'll target Oviedo in a back 4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted October 20, 2016 Report Share Posted October 20, 2016 I would like that too now that baines is out. Better defensively since they'll target Oviedo in a back 4. That's what I was thinking. I think Palfy has chosen the same players but I think considering the opposition (without meaning to be disresepectful to Burnley) we should be able to push more, and having that pace going forward with 5 competent defensive players, I think 343 is better suited Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Btay Posted October 20, 2016 Report Share Posted October 20, 2016 Stekkers Jags Williams Mori Coleman Barry Gueye Oviedo Mirallas Lukaku Bolasie that'd do me... Yep this for me without baines. We are stronger at the back with these 3 rather than a flat 4 and more dangerous going forward. Formation suits the strength of the players.

Finn balor Posted October 20, 2016 Report Share Posted October 20, 2016 Small closed in ground don't like trying to change things at the back. Granted Oviedo is shite these days.

Guest rusty747 Posted October 21, 2016 Report Share Posted October 21, 2016 If we play Bolasie left wing in a 4-4-2 then at least he tracks back and he and Gana can help Oviedo out defensively. For me, if Oviedo starts in a flat back four then we need Lennon ahead of him as he is a real work horse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pete0 Posted October 21, 2016 Report Share Posted October 21, 2016 ............Stekelenburg ......Jagielka Williams Mori Coleman.......... .. ... Oviedo ........Davies Gana Barkley ......... . Dowell ...............Lukaku Give Barry a break. Davies and Dowell know how each other play and give Barkley more responsibly with the youngsters on.

Keith B Posted October 21, 2016 Report Share Posted October 21, 2016 The news about Baines isn't great. Koeman has shown an ability to adapt and change tactics when necessary, so I trust him at this point. I do think 3 at the back makes the most sense given the squad available.

Got my Everton shirt on though, was wearing it when she was born so it seems appropriate Have the party but have the footy on quietly in the living room for the men, women in kitchen/other room/conservatory/garden. Get a bouncy castle and a table full of party food. 0 plenty of wine and beer and no one will care if you're watching the game. You're very welcome Matt ? Happy birthday to your daughter also.??
