Stoke v Everton 1st Jan 2014 @ 15:00

[Aidey9]

@Everton one change from starting XI as Antolin Alcaraz strained groin so Tony Hibbert will take his place v #scfc today.#COYB

Serious or a joke?

 

[Chang Elephant]

Yes no Begovic for Stoke.

True story bro ? If so party on.

 

[TyphooToffee]

getting nervous !

Not nervous at all here. Not only do I have utmost faith in Alcaraz and Stones, Barry is back. I think we'll cruise this.

 

[chicoazul]

Would of fallen for that but you didn't have the #EFCSCFC on it

Pah!

takes notes for next time*

Barry is going to be crucial today. Get him close to the CBs. As is Lukaku defending set pieces.

a week or two back Im sure i read a stat where both distin and jags were in the top 10 for tackles made. so despite all the possession and the league position we are still very reliant on the centre backs.

TBH one isolated stat tells us nothing. Obviously both are good players and will be missed.

That doesn't mean Alcaraz and Stones won't be putting a shift in. We'll be putting their CB's under a good bit more pressure than I expect ours to be under.

 

[Huyton Layne]

Yes no Begovic for Stoke.

I'm so dense, took him out of my fantasy team yesterday and didn't even click.

 

[Goat]

It doesnt matter who is playing at the back.

We have James McCarthy.

The human heatmap.

 

[Ring master]

Yes no Begovic for Stoke.

Ha not played the last 2 games for them

 

[davek]

We've had an awful past few matches injury and suspension-wise.

Early transfer business is looking like a must.

 

[mawders]

2 goals for us within the first 15 minutes. Miralles and Lukaku. Then a third in the second half from Baines. I'm going for a comfortable 3-0 win

 

[Goat]

COYFBFBFBFB

chicos head is massive

 

[AussieToffee]

Top teams keep winning so we have no option but to win this.

A must must MUST win game, aren't they all ?

yes they are....


here we go again......... PUMPED!

 

[Del]

I'm comparing it to their's and Chelski and Arsenal and the RS and Spurs and Utd.

And we do not come close to having the quality of bench of any of those rivals.

Liverpools bench for todays game

04 Kolo Touré
06 Luis Alberto
08 Gerrard
12 Moses
34 Kelly
46 Rossiter

Hardly a bench to envy
