Starting line up has a lot of experience, which is good. And the bench is very strong.

I like it. We have flexibility with that team. And our three match winners from open play are all in there with Funes Mori to try and snatch a set piece goal.

Good blend for me.
 
I'm quite happy with the lineup considering our injuries.

Stones at RB is fine and with both him and Mori playing we'll have more of a threat from set pieces. I don't get why people treat Osman like he's the worst player to ever put on an Everton shirt. He's an intelligent player who doesn't give the ball away cheaply and has a decent pass on him.

I'm far happier to play Osman, Cleverly than play an unfit McCarthy, which was my biggest worry. Just a real shame about Besic not being fit. We'll miss him.
 
I'd guess the situation with Coleman and McCarthy is if it was a league game they would have started, however both players probably haven't got 120 mins in them in case of extra time.
 

At the end of the day,or night as it is now lol [uk time],Its 11 v 11,and if you cant get yourself up in a semi final, for the chance to get a final,god knows we have no hope lol
 
Stones at right back and osman?

Jesus we are poor. They will rip stones to shreds given the run on him.

Good.job we don't need to sign any more players eh?

FFS. I was confident until I seen no Coleman, Stones out of position and Osman playing. Why not play an actual wide man like Lennon instead of trying to shoehorn Osman in too the first eleven? I'm Bobby Martinez biggest fan but tonight I'm worried.

Osman played when we drew them last time. Coleman might not be able to go 90 yet, we will probably see him as a sub. Especially if it goes to extra time

Ah I misinterpreted that. I thought they wanted us to lose because they wanted Martinez out.

If it's out of fear of playing that shower... that's more embarrassing than incredible.

Cognitive dissonance... we want a trophy.... oh we'd have to compete in a final????? no thanks.

It is embarrassing and all the RS fans saying they hope we win is also embarrassing. Let's get through this game 1st and we can worry about those heathens after that
