December 2011 If you take in to account our past record at the Hawthorns which is pretty poop then maybe a draw wouldn't be such a bad result.
Especially the way we are playing lately.
Personally i think it's gonna be 2 - 2.
Donovan is available for the Bolton game, this sadly will be the first time in a while that i will be excited about gettin' down to Goodison, hopefully he will light the touchpaper and 'The old lady' will come alive once more, it's been like a morg for too long now.
COYB Keep the faith!!!

I hope we will win or at very least draw, but I really don't know about this one. If he plays Cahill behind Saha (which he almost certainly will) it will be very hard to score a goal unless Baines scores a pen or Osman gets a goal. This is the team I would like to see......

----------------------------Howard---------------------------

Hibbert------------Jags--------------Distin-----------Baines

Drenthe-----------Barkley----------Heitinga--------Gueye

----------------------Osman

--------------------------------------------Denis

I don't mind us going 4 5 1 away from home, its the fact that Moyes is reluctant to change to 4 4 2 when we need a goal that frustrates me. I think that Gueye and Barkley have shown enough promise to be given a start, and I think Drenthe is much more effective on the right then he is on the left. I think that the best player we have to play behind the striker is Osman, as he offers so much more than Cahill. I also think that Denis has shown he is hungry for goals and game time, which is why I think he is worthy for a first start for us.

-----------------

Loving that line up. Only thing I would change is having Vellios behind Denis. I know some people will knock it, but we all know Cahill and Saha aren't delivering right now, so 2 new and exciting players up front should be able to bring us 3 points.

i suspect never will again. cahill was injured playing for oz. he should have quit his int'l career after the last world cup.

saha is 33 and this should be his last season here.

-----------------

I disagree, last year should of been his last year. :p

December 2011 i go for a 1-1 draw if we are lucky ossie or a Baines pen or freekick to score for us if saha and cahill start again
moyes will have to answer questions as to why the two worst players this season keep getting picked every week.

That's the problem, Osman and Baines look the most likely players to score in that team, and we can't rely on a left back and a midfielder to score every week, we need our strikers to start scoring.
