If we win this and sign some of these lads though...

 

[USABlue]

nervy 1-1

 

[Michaelcoyb]

nervy 1-1

Would definitely take that.

Just don't want to get embarrassed.

Seems the only decision to make for Bobby is whether to bring kev back in and for whom? Personally I'd leave him on the bench till the hour mark. Even if we're drawing or in front I'd bring him on to give city something else to think about. Can't see anything but a tight game. Be ace to get a few signings confirmed today, to get the arl fellas in goodison not just rocking, but turbo had a barney with the missus, me boss is a knob and me accumulators just gone down, Stella x 10 ultra buge'd rocking.

Great preview, laughed out loud a few times! The game itself will either be one of those inspired Goodison performances with a narrow 1-0 win or 1-1, either that or a hammering with City scoring at least 4, hopefully the former. It's giving me a real headache on whether or not to pick Coleman in my fantasy team this week!

Sorry @chicoazul should have looked this one out earlier to use in your preview.

"Joe Hart, like a drag artist with their make up washed off". Ha Ha.

We shouldn't attempt to go toe to toe with these. Park the bus and get them to HT at 0-0. See what happens after that.

Feck Jo, wheres Strauq when you need him hey?
Gonna mill these 0-0.

Would definitely take that.

Obviously I'd prefer a resounding victory, yet going on their last two performances and our upcoming fixtures, then a draw would be a good result.

Well I know Martinez will not start with Kone and Lukaku, but maybe he should. Today Barry will make 100654 free kicks

109th get in. Great preview, always better when we've just thumped someone. This is the perfect game to follow up with. Let them have the ball, defend well, and hit them on the break like we did to Manure. 4-1 vault me. Keeps lube handy.

 

[CahillsCornerFlag]

I'd go for this;

Howard
Coleman Stones Jagielka Galloway
McCarthy Barry
Mirallas Barkley Cleverley
Lukaku

The Clev did a good job protecting Galloway last match and most of their attacks came about because Coleman bombed on and Kone had no intention of covering, a team like City would've punished us. Mirallas will at least pretend to track back. Deulofeu and Kone on for the last 20.

if he makes that amount of free kicks today, we are goosed tomorrow when theres players to tackle

pity the rear gunner isn't Zabaleta ... that would be poetic justice. Crackin' pic all the same.

We'll have these 2-1. They don't like Goodison, we have decent history against them .. and (to my eyes) they never seem to be able to sustain long, unbeaten runs (though I could be wrong on this point).

 

[malfosse]

TL;dr

What does that mean?
