I like that team. The only thing I might change is Browning in at left back, Oviedo to left midfield and Mirallas moved inside in place of Kone.

Howard Coleman Stones Jags Browning Barry Barkley Gerry Mirallas Oviedo Lukaku Crazy to even consider dropping Kone for me. He was the best outfield player on Saturday and his confidence must be at an all time high (Everton career wise). Has to stay in the team.

London Blue Posted September 1, 2015 Report Share Posted September 1, 2015 Given how poor Chelsea' defense in general and Ivanovic in particular we have to start with Mirallas and Gerry. Kone has been great so he cant be dropped so I would go. Howard Coleman, Stones, Jags, Oviedo McCarthy Barkley Gerry Mirallas Kone Lukaku I would have all 3 swapping roles, but basically have Gerry or Mirallas rip them a new one, or preferably several new ones on the way to giving Chelsea a hiding. But this wont happen, so it will be: Howard Coleman, Stones, Jags, Oviedo McCarthy Barry Kone Barkley Mirallas Lukaku Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Btay Posted September 2, 2015 Report Share Posted September 2, 2015 I'd have Kone RW against Azpilacuter or however it's spelt. Gerry left wing to simply get to do his thing, stand it up at the back post to Kone who is taller - header - goal. Football is easy.

Pearso Posted September 2, 2015 Report Share Posted September 2, 2015 I hope we go out and absolutely maul them. This whole Stones saga has rocketed the plastics up to my most hated fans. If ever there were a game I would again fly across the world to get to Goodison for it'd be this one. I felt the same about the time Moyes and United came back to Goodison in Martinez' first season, and we wiped the floor with them that day. You scousers best have the ground bouncing that day! I reckon I'll wake my whole street at 3.30am when I roar at Mirallas double footing Terry at 3-0 up Btay 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcirony Posted September 2, 2015 Report Share Posted September 2, 2015 Chelsea really couldn't cope with pace of Citeh last week so we have to play lennon and Deulofeu if we want anything out of the game. If not we'll just be pedestrian like we were against Spurs and lose 0-1. markjazzbassist 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not we'll just be pedestrian like we were against Spurs and lose 0-1.I'd go with Back 7 as usual Lennon Mirallas Geri Kone Then bring Rom on at 60 mins after those four have worn their defence and midfield out for Kone, Ross on for either Kev or Geri, whoever is flagging at 75m Or double sub at 60 for Geri.

pete0 Posted September 4, 2015 Report Share Posted September 4, 2015 Chelsea have conceded at least 2 goals in each game this season so far, with mourinho pushing the blame on the slowing terry. I think we should take advantage and punish them with a rapid counter attacking team rather than play our usual possession play. Howard Coleman Stones Jags Barry Besic* Barkley McCarthy Deulofeu Lukaku Mirallas *besic to man mark hazard and also to play long passes on the ground through to the attacking three. If he's got hazard covered this will open up Coleman to get forward too. Barry has the experience to shut out Pedro. Mccarthy to shift left and Mirallas to the right allowing Deulofeu the freedom to push forward and stop Chelsea from getting compact. Lukaku, Mirallas and Deulofeu to keep running at the back four. Barkley and besic to bring the ball forward from deep when possible to get matic out of position. Matt 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either way, you're right and I still expect to see him in some capacity against Chelsea. He was training with them, I have no idea if he actually played any games during that time. Strikes me as a player who wouldn't struggle with his fitness. One of those annoying bastards whose naturally fit and trim. His overall fitness will be fine, but his match fitness will be non-existent so I wouldn't want him facing Chelsea even if they are in terrible form.

Deacs Posted September 5, 2015 Report Share Posted September 5, 2015 Useful from the bench though. Don't imagine there are many defenders that would be happy seeing Lennon and Deulofeu coming on with 25 minutes left. Don't suppose we're likely to see it either, which is a shame.

Hafnia Posted September 7, 2015 Report Share Posted September 7, 2015 so - after the international break we have some pretty good positives. 1. Besic is banned from playing which will keep him fresh 2. Lukaku and Mirallas have been dropped - hopefully this is a wake up call after very lack lustre displays. 3. Barkley is getting plaudits which should result in confidence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hafnia Posted September 7, 2015 Report Share Posted September 7, 2015 (edited) Regarding besic I think it only applies to international games. It does, but that means his legs will be nice and ready for us. Edited September 7, 2015 by Hafnia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
