Just watched them completely outplay United despite United having twice as much of the ball. Should be a real cracker. Looking forward in particular to Shaw v Coleman. Coleman was awesome going forward today so Luke will have his work cut out. Also impressed with Naismith. Distin went off injured at half time and Mirallas limped off just before the final whistle but Everton looked very impressive. Wonder if MP will go with the side that started yesterday or try to change things up top? That said there isnt much scope unless he lets a youngster like Mcqueen or Sims have a go. Hoping for a home win but can see it being a draw. I'll go 2-2.
We'll have to be on our game to get anything out of Everton. They've been very impressive this season.
Will be a cracker, two teams who love pushing their full-backs up. A game more suited to clyne, so would stay with the same line up- that is if Gaston isn't fit to return.
Their defence looked pretty solid today and they are lethal on the break, we will need a lot going in our favour to get a result. Just hoping and wishing at the moment, and we never do what is expected of us.............
Yes, Everton did look solid but a few players went off injured and Barkley picked up his fifth booking of the season and is therefore suspended.
I have been trying to confirm this but I cannot - my only current justification is that it came up with 'misses the next game' on the television when he was booked.
Hope we can score a goal or two. Think Everton will play similar to how they did today, sitting back and playing on the counter. A draw would be a good result.
Anyone else think Stones should be in the England squad instead of Jones or Smalling? Lack of experience, I know, but our defence is frail anyway.
I watched Coleman play in the play-offs for Blackpool at forest the year they went up to the Prem under Holloway (my mate is a forest STH) and I couldn't believe how good he was then as a right back. Said to my mate that he would be one for the future then. Fabulous player.
