Sheedy on the derby.

Martinez confirmed no Coleman and said Distin is "touch and go".

Distin better make it tomorrow. Stones is still learning and his positioning sense is...

It'll be interesting to see where he plays, stones might play at rb instead of cb and heits could go cb if distin isnt fit

Yes. Stones should play RB.

is alcaraz fit? if he is i would have a Stones Alcaraz Jags Baines back four (assuming Distin out)

 

[chewee]

According to the echo Jags has a slight hamstring injury as well

Injury wise dont think we could be playing them at a worse time

 

[Kiwi]

ffs why dont we put out an injury eleven
GK Traore (hes tall and all)
RWB Coleman
CB Jags
CB Distin
CB Alcaraz
LWB Oveido
CM Ross
CM Pienaar
CM Gibson
ST Deulofeu
ST Kone

They've got a terrible defence. Most of their terrible defence is injured. They've got an even more terrible defence.

We rested Lukaku, We've signed Traore, that's a kick up Romelu's arse. He love's playing them.

he's going to have a field day.

The scoreline could be anything tommorow given both teams defenses have been badly affected.

BT sport must by doing handstands.

when some seemed to settle foe a draw against west brom, kev kept chasing the win, look at his desire the other night against cloggers on a mud heap, he didn't waver from bryans side once, while men with lesser stomachs understandably couldn't look, the way he took revenge on that buck toothed animal. On tuesday Kev becomes legend

This post made me giddy.

 

[squonk]

No Coleman is a serious setback. Hopefully either Barkley or Pienaar can make it because without all 3 we are badly weakened.

 

[meagher94]

Ross is gonna tear these and Rodgers a new arsehole better than that Harwood bloke.

 

[zirc]

I actually hope they start both Suarez and Sturridge. With them playing 2 strikers we will overrun them in midfield and their forwards will be cut off, just have to defend well against long balls then.

I'm looking at Everton's team options for this and there is a real possibility that we could have Hibbert, Osman and Naismith on the team sheet ready to start.

It's a disaster.

We may as well accept that injuries have intervened here to rob us of the chance of being competitive, take this one on the chin and bear the pain of another Derby defeat over there and hope the rest of the week goes by quickly until the Villa game.

By the way, if we have a lot of those injured back for the Villa game I'll be pretty pissed off that Martinez will have downgraded the Derby for the sake of a few more days rest for recovering players. You just dont do that - it's the shortest route into an Everton supporter's bad books as far as I'm concerned.

 

[By god I'm blue]

I was going to say that I refuse to let injuries be an excuse.

Then I read Coleman definitely out, Alcaraz unlikely, Distin "tough and go, Jagielka should be OK, Barkley or Defeloeu unlikely to figure and of course Oviedo.

The gods have conspired against us.
