    Howard

    Hibbert..... Jags(c)...... Heitinga/Distin.....Baines

    Billy........Rodwell.............Fellaini...............Drenthe

    Osman

    Vellios

    Subs (Mucha, Distin, Cahill, Gueye, Barkley, Stracqualursi, Coleman)

    A fairly balanced 4-4-1-1 that be made more defensive or attack heavy, depending on what te situation calls for. ie
    (1) Take Billy off and bring on Coleman at half time if Billy is not playing well or if we need a more defensive right winger.
    Or (2) Take Rodwell off and move Osman/Barkley to a more central position to accomodate a second striker (Gueye or Stracq), if we are chasing a goal.


    No matter the outcome after the first 60-70 mins, Barkley should come on for Osman to give him some play time.

    I would use the following line up for this match:

    ...Howard...

    Hibbert...Jags...Heitinga..Baines

    Coleman..Rodwell..Fellaini..Drenthe

    Cahil..............
    ..............Vellios

    I also agree Barkley should come on at 60-70, I think Saha should come in at 65-75 if we are behind but hopefully we are ahead and bring in Neville rigth before full time...


    My prediction would be Everton 2- Chelsea 2... We need a result to get some motivation after a devastating loss against Liverpool we did not deserve...

    I would gladly that the draw at this stage but we might be able to pull off another upset. Come after January, I think we might be able to wreak havoc on all the top teams once again, especially when Drenthe, Barkley, Stracq and Vellious would all hopefully have had more game time and have settled in properly.

    As long as we go two up front, I don't care who starts..... Apart from Anichebe and Hibbo......

    Why not play with wingbacks Coleman and Baines, have rodwell and felli sit and pack the midfield letting Bily, Timmy and Ricky counter attack, Chelsea wont be that much of a threat down the wings and paloways just pass it about in the Midfield.
    Rodders done well man making Silva so maybe the same on Mata, with felli picking up whats left??


    HOWARD
    JAGIELKA DISTIN
    COLEMAN BAINES
    RODWELL FELLAINI
    BILYALETDINOV CAHILL R.R.DRENTHE
    STRAQ/SAHA


    Feed the Straq and he will score!!!!!

    Lets be fair, its going to start with Cahill behind a single striker. Talk of two is just crazy talk.

    And you know Hibbert will be involved too.

    Way to kill my buzz TC! But you know you're more than likely right.

    sadly yes

    But to lift the mood a little, I'm thinking this game is just calling out for Phil Nevilles experience

    We could even get a couple of keepers from the reserves, the academy and the Everton ladies. 

    Then we could play 11-0-0-0.
