StanSteadman Posted March 19, 2014 Report Share Posted March 19, 2014 Easy win? I'm not so sure. The possession stats will probably end up as 50/50 and Swansea are fighting to avoid getting involved in a relegation scrap. However Everton have the more creative players and have far more penetration than Swansea who this season have failed toget behind the opposition. A narrow Everton win! www.hotfootballpredictions.co.uk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cork Evertonian Posted March 19, 2014 Report Share Posted March 19, 2014 Hopefully we won't make things as difficult for ourselves as we did on Saturday.3 points is 3 points but i'd like to see us be a bit more clinical this weekend.

MC11 Posted March 20, 2014 Report Share Posted March 20, 2014 Good side, should be 3 points in our back yard though. We need to put these teams to bed if we are going to clinch 5th. No more draws. They are useless. Drawing 3 games is only as good as winning one and losing two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

markjazzbassist Posted March 20, 2014 Report Share Posted March 20, 2014 With Pienaar out another 3 weeks and jags 50-50 here's the lineup I would like to see. Howard Coleman Stones Distin Baines McCarthy Barry McGeady Barkley Osman Lukaku I know I'm starting osman. I think his connection with baines would be better than Mirallas who is too selfish. I'd like to see more of McGeady and Coleman and that partnership. I feel Aiden is less selfish than Kev or Gerry and would give Seamus a much needed passing and link up player.

MC11 Posted March 20, 2014 Report Share Posted March 20, 2014 (edited) Thank you, professor. You get the comments like only lost 5 this season. So what we've drew 9. Might as well have lost 6 more and won 3. Yeh, I get goal difference but that's not the point, draws are nearly as bad as a loss in terms of points dropped.

Brett Angel Posted March 20, 2014 Report Share Posted March 20, 2014 I would seriously play 4-3-3. Give up a bit of possession and focus more on speed of attack and getting in front early. Howard Coleman stones distin Baines McCarthy Barkley Barry Delefao lukaku McGeady Joel Alcaraz Osman Mirralas Naismith MYSELF!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC11 Posted March 20, 2014 Report Share Posted March 20, 2014 I'd play Barkley CM with McCarthy. Give Gaz Baz a rest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brett Angel Posted March 21, 2014 Report Share Posted March 21, 2014 you could say that about any formation smart arse. it states clearly, 4-3-3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeO Posted March 21, 2014 Report Share Posted March 21, 2014 you could say that about any formation smart arse. it states clearly, 4-3-3 What do Deulofeu and McGeady do differently from when we call it a 451 out of interest.....not help the full backs?

marcopaulo Posted March 21, 2014 Report Share Posted March 21, 2014 i'd assume one of the 3 cm's would sit deeper and the other 2 player wider almost like wide players to help cover the fullbacks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cake Posted March 21, 2014 Report Share Posted March 21, 2014 I'll take a narrow win in this one. We scored well at home in the league against Stoke (for once) and Fulham but I think we are yet to completely batter somebody so I hope we save that for Man Utd!

verreauxi Posted March 21, 2014 Report Share Posted March 21, 2014 I haven't been paying too much attention to Swansea as of late, but isn't Michu back? It'd be interesting to see if he and Bony can work together. Like others I'd like to see McGeady start over Mirallas. We should eek out a win but it won't be that easy.

markjazzbassist Posted March 21, 2014 Report Share Posted March 21, 2014 Michu made the bench last game. This one I'm guessing he will be on the bench again but will see game time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toffee_in_LA Posted March 22, 2014 Report Share Posted March 22, 2014 Nice to see Alcaraz on the bench at least (I'd have Stones starting ahead of him of course, just pointing out that he's healthy at least). The lack of a 2nd striker though always brings me down a little but we should have enough firepower on the wings to win this. markjazzbassist 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shukes Posted March 22, 2014 Report Share Posted March 22, 2014 nice team on paper. Also looking forward to seeing what McGeady can produce from the start with Lukaku in front of him. Also want to see Ross back perforiming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
