Fiorentina v Everton - 6th March

[HalewoodB]

Same side as sunday, except Neville at right back with Arteta coming in, harsh on AJ but we play better in the 4-5-1 formation.

Howard

Neville Yobo Jag Lescott

Arteta Ossie Carsley Pienaar

Cahill

Yak

Will settle for a 1-1 draw but fancy us to win 2-1

 

[donnie brascoe]

i reckon 1-1 with the Jags getting the 1st goal and winning me £400b)

I'm sure we'll see about the same line up as Sunday with Moyes bringing in AJ in the 60th, which will be really good. The guys should be able to wear down their back line enough that when AJ comes into the game with his fresh legs they won't be able to keep up. I'm going to go with 1-0.

We'll find out how good we are in Europe in this game, expect mucho diving and shithouse tactics.

 

[GrandOldTeam]

If we get a decent result there, we will slaughter them at home.

See you Guys - just off to the airport

Feeling slightly nervous about this one..... potential for crowd problems before, after and during the game, plus the quality of the opposition.

Just hope the behaviour of the vast majority of true fans outweighs any stupidity from the small moronic element we have.

Good luck everyone!

PS for mick (and Chico) - Mrs Esk may look in once or twice in the next couple of days

Agree with that. See no reason why we should change and also think that an AJ or Anichebe or Vaughan could put them to the sword in the final half-hour or so.

hope all who go have a great time, and do our club proud...

I hope we score a goal, 0-0 would be horrible, but a 1-1, 2-1 win or loss i could cope with.

Tough game for us a draw would be great away from home. This is a good team even without Mutu.

 

[SuitsBlue]

this is what its all about, playing against better sides and finding out about our mettle.

 

[Tennessee Blue Mike]

Your right Suits I am dissapointed Spurs have the headline game over here. Whats the status on Arteta any word?

 

[SuitsBlue]

its all quiet, surely they are there now. anyone know who has traveled?

 

[Tennessee Blue Mike]

Couldn't see Davey shaking the squad up to much but you never know.

 

[atrottel]

Arteta is supposed to be joining up from Spain, where he has been treated.

 

[TX Bill]

Yep. OS said though that he's doubtful.

Funny though that in the past few years, no Arteta meant no creativity. Now, we're still missing him but it doesn't kill us like it used to.
