West Ham turned them over, we just need someone to do what Diame did that day. Would still take a point though.

COYB!! nearly time hope we jiz in the face of russian oil moguls again

 

[Dell Boy]

Top class write up again Chico. A particular favourite being:

"Peter Cech continues to look a tit with his protective head gear. It’s healed by now mate.".

I reckon after all the fireworks of yesterday this will be a scabby game, both teams reduced to 10 men and the talking points being the whole ground chanting Benitez you're a prick, the sending offs and the one moment of genius from Osman that let Everton win 1-0

 

[AmericanBlue]

Enjoy the match, lads. Can't make it now, got food poisoning last night

Damn, that's a terrible shame. Hope you're feeling better soon, mate.

I was joking about the casual bumming ffs

[KevMirallas]

****e lineup, but I reckon this is the game that Jelavic flicks the switch and starts slotting like a mad man again.

 

[Avaseer]

Everton: Howard, Jagielka, Baines, Heitinga, Distin, Naismith, Pienaar, Hitzlsperger, Osman, Jelavic, Anichebe
Subs: Mucha, Duffy, Browning, Oviedo, Barkley, Gueye, Vellios

browning?? suprised kennedy didn't get a nod, heard really good things about him and supposedly the standout in the reserves.

If JH is playing to shoehorn jags to full back we are doomed!

is a surprise, would have thought hammer, lundstram or junior would have been higher up. sadly, with them [Poor language removed] banning reidy i have no info on whether they're all injured/performing worse than browning/away or something like that.

not a very strong bench btw, but we do have about 5 injuries

 

[BlueToffee95]

We're gonna have to play mentally good to get anything today.

 

[Jags..class]

The line up is a bit of a downer, no gibson,fellaini,miralles,coleman,Neville, lucky to get a point today, just hope Hitzlsperger does a decent job, and not a fan of Jags at RB either, would have rather played an extra midfielder instead of Victor.

 

[MapleLeafEvertonian]

Some players really need to have a big game today. That starting line up has alot to prove.

 

[Ring master]

Chelsea
Cech, Azpilicueta, Ivanovic, Cahill, Cole, Luiz, Lampard, Mata, Ramires, Hazard, Torres
Subs: Turn, Fer, Ake, Oscar, Marin, Piazon, Moses

 

[toffeejack]

Howard
Jags Duffy Distin Baines
Oviedo Osman Hitz Pienaar
Jelavic Anichebe

is how i would have gone - or naismith behind jela with anichebe getting half an hour or so off the bench. hopefully this will be the game where barkley does a rooney-eque last minute screamer to make his name on the premier league
