Team news

Diniyar Bilyaletdinov returns from suspension for Everton’s trip to Blackburn on Saturday.

The Russian’s return will come as a welcome boost for manager David Moyes who, while having no fresh concerns, is still a bit away from having a full complement to pick from.

Seamus Coleman (ankle) and Magaye Gueye (broken toe) are absent, while Tim Cahill (illness) and Jermaine Beckford (knee) both missed Wednesday night’s Carling Cup win over Sheffield United.

One positive for Moyes was the fact that Marouane Fellaini and Mikel Arteta both banked 90 minutes against the Blades, while Louis Saha got another half an hour under his belt.

The Everton boss said: “You could see certainly by midway through the second half that they need games and they were not quite ready.

“But that game will have done them a lot of good and get them closer to where they need to be.”

Honestly see little reason we'll win here. We're not good at all in August and I don't see why this will be any different.

3-0 to us.

Moyes loves Vic - he starts. Need some hieght against Blackburn so starts for Felli and Rodders with Jags and disting at the back. Mikky, Osie and Barkley in front of Jack and Felli. final score 0-0

How far is Ewood from the town centre? Walking distance? Just wondering what time to set off.

2-1 Everton COYB!! Felli and Saha with the goals and anyone from a set peice from them

 

[Waddy]

Hope Moyes dosent go for the usual 4-4-2! I think a 4-5-1 playing Howard upfront as a lone striker and Hibbo in goal.

COYB.

Like the idea of Gerbs line-up @69, prob won't happen though as the two flavours of the year - Cahill and Anichebe will get the nod.
Shame cos that looks really exciting

Next time will be today, although I hope I am wrong.

Apparently it was 4-2-3-1 the other night so interesting to see if goes with that again.

It's a good formation so long as you don't have 2 out and out defensive midfielders in the midfield 2. Unless you're playing a top team, then it's more forgivable.
