Team for the Toffees Away

Postby AlpsMaster » Fri Jan 15, 2010 1:53 pm

I could not see a thread about this yet so I thought I'd jump in and start one. I'm not fully up to date with the injuries situation* but here's what I would go for:

Given
Zabba Micah Twos Gazza
SWP* NDJ Bazza Bellers
Tev Robby

I'd like to see Robby show us what he can do. Petrov on the bench if Robson is off song and move Bellers up to support Tevez.

robinho and ireland took this lot apart last year. get the feeling neither will start though.

infact if RSC is fit i think he may be a suprise starter as everton are pretty physical.

maybe he'll stick with benjani though - to be fair to the guy he didnt do much wrong against bburn.

looks like Vieira, and Ireland and SWP are all doubtful. Anyone heard anything about any of them?

Micah Ned Kompany Garrido

Vieira De Jong

Sweep Tevez Bellamy

RSC

Looks alright that and from what I`ve read it`s quite possible.

I've always been a fan of the "big man, little man" combination up front. I hope we stick with it.

Robinho and Tevez are not suited to playing up front together for long periods of a game as they both drop off, like to roam and end up in midfield (Tevez in the centre and Robinho out left) so often we have no one at the point of attack meaning no outlet to stretch the game.

RSC needs 2 weeks rest according to Paraguay mate. Whether City take any notice of that is another matter. Zabaleta I believe is suspended, according to someone on here. SWP may be fit though.

How about:

Given
Micah Dedryck HermanMunster Barry
Sweep Vieira Schlong Bellers
Tevez
Benjani

Sorry still cant see a start for Robinho, but he may rest Bellers for Tuesday, in which case Robbie or Rigsby are in!

Sorry mate I assumed last weeks thread was right. In that case Zabba in at RB and Boyata on the bench.

4-4-2
Shay
Pablo Micah Vincent Javier
Shaun Patrick Nigel Craig
Carlito
Benjamin

This if he decides to rest Barry ahead of the scum and Pat is fit.

Ned is back in contention and should certainly be a bench player.

Well we been winning by nice margins without Ireland so not a huge blow hes not back yet let him get his rest no rush, them lineups are all cracking :). Who can you replace for Ireland right now anyways? De Jong and Barry both been on cracking form since Mancini took over anyways.

I just wonder how many weeks and how many pre matches we have said we would put Robinho in because "we would like to see what Robby can really do". Maybe he is doing what he really does!
