Everton Vs. Blackburn Rovers - Aug 25th (home)

[Rob]

Quarter past five kick off for this one.

According to the OS only cahill and vaughan are injured and of course VDM is suspended, I think 4-5-1 is our stregnth and when it isn't broke....

Howard

Jagielka - Yobo - Stubbs - Lescott

Arteta - Carsley - FERNANDES - Neville - Pienaar

AJ


Notice manny? *fingers crossed!*
Also, some will say I'm harsh on osman but its time to see what a naturally left sided winger can do for us, with arteta magic on the right and pienaar on the left, I'm thinking there won't be enough players on the pitch to triple up on arteta like reading did so well.

COYB!

If manny has signed he has to play if fit and i would put baines in at left back to mark bentley also i would,nt like to think of hibbert marking mgp.

Thing teppics got it nailed on above. Moyesie never throws new signings (even ones that have been here before) straight into the mix.

Is Yobo fit? Thought he had a groin injury? Hope so as Valente looked weak last week.

Should be a physical battle and expect Blackburn to exploit Howards achilles heel again by taking loads of long pot shots at him. Maybe Baines is getting nearer fitness. I'd like to see

--------------------Howard---------------------
Neville-----Yobo--------Lescott---------Baines
--------------------Cars-------------------------
Arteta---------- ---Manny----------------Osman
----------------AJ-----------Faddy--------------

or consider going 4-5-1 as this is going to be a tough test against one of the brighter up and coming managers.

 

[Philw]

moyes also likes to stick with what he knows/works... if yobo is back i expect lescott to move back to LB, that worked well for us all year, so i cant see him changing it... other than that i think mcfadden in for anichebe, tho whether on the left or as a fully fledged forward im not sure.... the rest as started last game
perhaps jags and baines as (earlier) subs.

GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!

Not only have I missed the first 3 matches whilst on holiday, I'm gonna miss this one as well! We're down in Brizzle for a friend's 75th party.

i don't think that hibbert will play i think if baines is fit he'll replace hibbert or neville will go to defence and pienaar will come in to midfield.

This is my lineup as well assuming Fernandes is signed sometime this century.

 

[Sim]

i don't think that hibbert will play i think if baines is fit he'll replace hibbert or neville will go to defence and pienaar will come in to midfield.

But Hibbo is a right back and Baines is a left? But I'd go with Neville taking over Hibbo's right back role and moving Pienaar from the start into the midfield, maybe put Ossie on the bench for a rest

McFadden has to start in replace of Vic this week. Arteta needs to be dropped after his shoddy game too (ASIF this man can never be dropped! ), and it wouldnt hurt to see Baines at left back instead of Valente too.

 

[heatmeiser]

and it wouldnt hurt to see Baines at left back instead of Valente too.

It wouldn't hurt to see my blind grandma at left back instead of Valente to be honest.

 

[FCConnecticut]

Do we have any strikers for this match?

 

[neonleon]

Do we have any strikers for this match?

faddy coming back from injury (and knackered from a mid week trip to South Africa for scotland - I think)

Lukas thingy - far too young for the rough and tumble of Blackburn

AJ - should make a recovery. Everyone who can play decent footy with an english passport has been mysteriously dropping like flies this week. Hopefully its just that.

So AJ and faddy up front if Moyes doesn't go all 4-5-1 on our asses.
