Brett Angel Posted March 4, 2014 Report Share Posted March 4, 2014 (edited) Really not feeling confident about this game to be honest. Would love us to at least get them back to goodison on a night game. I understand we love to play the possession game but would love RM to take a different route with arsenal this time. Give them the possession then play a good counter attacking game. Would love to see Barkley, delefao and Mirallas behind lukaku and really catch them out like the shite done. If we go ahead it will be the best set up to stick with. Play this way and it will give McCarthy the license to play as a third CB when under pressure. Break quick with speed in midfield, that's what I think. What's ya thoughts???? Edited March 4, 2014 by Brett Angel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ant1979 Posted March 4, 2014 Report Share Posted March 4, 2014 Got a deserved 1-1 not too long ago sticking to our principles, so I would go with that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

markjazzbassist Posted March 4, 2014 Report Share Posted March 4, 2014 (edited) I fancy us in this match. We finally got through the rough patch and won. Arsenal are in the middle of their bad patch and Ramsey is still out and ozil is struggling. I think we could pull this out or get a draw and a replay. Here's the lineup I'd like to see (jags is still out I'm guessing) Howard Coleman Stones Distin Baines McCarthy Barry Mirallas Barkley Pienaar Lukaku Subs: Duelofeu for Pienaar, Mcgeady for Mirallas or Barkley, and Naismith for Lukaku.

Brett Angel Posted March 4, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 4, 2014 That's awfully naive of you mark on the subs. How can you predict or worse still favour certain subs without seeing how a match pans out first? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC11 Posted March 4, 2014 Report Share Posted March 4, 2014 (edited) I just hope we don't crumble to a heavy defeat and then all our hopes are on a Europa qualification. Edited March 4, 2014 by MiguelCotto Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brett Angel Posted March 4, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 4, 2014 If we get beat I would take getting picked of 4-0 but really going for it than getting beat 1-0 after defending for 90 mins. Do think we need to test the opposition keepers from outside the box more. Try walking it in away from home and it's downhill.

MC11 Posted March 4, 2014 Report Share Posted March 4, 2014 We need to turn up. Get hold of the game at least and have a go. I can't be arsed getting proper turned over. The season would just be proper damp after that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dalziel Kane Posted March 4, 2014 Report Share Posted March 4, 2014 Playing away at an opposition we haven't beat since 1996 and with it, a senior match official of dubious qualities, doesn't make for a very promising look ahead, but we've got the players who can cause the opposition problems and despite their recent resurgence, still far from the club side many will remember. They're just about of Europe, won't win the league championship, so along with ourselves, the FA Cup represents the only opportunity of taking something from this season. I don't expect a win on the day. Best guess is take it back to Liverpool for a replay and hopefully a night game at Goodison against some heavyweight opposition will work in our favor, as with games previous, and we can once again move into the semi-finals. Eliminate these and you've got only Manchester City outstanding as a real threat in this years competition, so hopefully the players will be up for it and Martinez will want to keep his hold on the trophy, but this was the draw we could have done without for sure.

MC11 Posted March 4, 2014 Report Share Posted March 4, 2014 I thought clattenberg had a decent game against Southampton but that was at Goodison. Phil Dowd is the best in the league for me. No shit from anyone no matter who you are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Posted March 5, 2014 Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 I had faith that we would give them a right good game until I saw the ref chosen. No faith anymore, they will get a pen and we will get a red card, both for no reason. Maybe even a goal disallowed.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bailey Posted March 5, 2014 Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 I think its going to be a really entertaining game. We just need to make sure we take our chances because that has been our downfall. It couls go either way but as long as we go there and play our game im confident we can at least take it back to Goodison. Ant1979 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rubecula Posted March 5, 2014 Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 I seriously doubt that we will sit back and defend for 90 minutes in this game. Reason 1, We outplayed them in the league earlier in the season, no reason to think we can not do it again. Reason 2, I have not seen much evidence that RM sets out a team to defend. Yes he likes us to play from the back, but only in order to prise open the opposition. Reason 3, My bestie is a Gooner and I want to dance around his his house making YAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYY screams when we score. (OK reason 3 is not a reason really, but I still want to do it as we will be watching the game together while his missus passes us the vino) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluenosetoffee Posted March 6, 2014 Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 This is going to be a hard game no doubt about that but with Arsenal playing Munich on Tuesday you could see them resting a few players in case of injuries. (Lets hope so anyway) . I would start with Gerry on the right and Mirallas on the left. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Posted March 6, 2014 Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 Sounds like Jags is a big doubt according to the press conference, something like "if the game was tomorrow he wouldnt be ready". If thats the case, hes not ready for Saturday in my opinion Toffee_in_LA, Romey 1878 and pete0 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest blueboy122 Posted March 6, 2014 Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 Would anyone be more inclined to go with Alcaraz if fit and Stones at the back rather than Distin? pete0 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
