Closed Everton v Chelsea

[Jase 43,479]

Can't believe Everton threw away that 2-0 advantage against Arsenal. Just watch them go all defensive brilliant on us next weekend..

We have no need to fear the Toffees ,, even the Arse tarts got a draw there.

This.

Has to be this team. If I see Oscar anywhere near the team sheet His 10 minutes of ok football doesnt warrant him to start ahead of Willian. PLEASE JOSE!

Gotta disagree on Ramires starting this one!

Not because he isnt good enough, but this is the sort of game where he could get red carded via 2 yellows.

everton play real quick and ramires does make rash tackles ....

Disagree. Ramires is rash but we need his legs in midfield to help stop Everton's game, and also his pace on the counter.

I think this is a given 4-3-3 formation. The only thing is that Schurrle sure deserves to start but i think we'll see this just because Willian will be more useful.

I think Mourinho will go into this game with great caution, this will be a real test and Everton usually give us struggle.

If a 4-2-3-1 is prefered here, i think Oscar will sit out.

Jose will try and do a number on Everton here. A much more defensive minded team for me. Maybe a 4-3-3 to add an extra man in midfield.

Schurrle, Costa, Hazard

Ramires legs in midfield will be crucial against a hard working Everton side. And if we get a goal up Willian will also definitley be seen for his work rate.

A tough match as always up at Goodison but i think our extra little bit of class will tell.

[blu35_army 550]

Coleman and baines did too much overlapping,,we can use this...

[Billy. 2,739]

4-3-3 is a must for this game me thinks

No way will Cesc be in a 2 man midfield in this one.

[The_Flash 1,144]

They can be tricky you really have to watch them, and we don't want RL to score against us :/

[Namika 922]

Willian will shine.

[Whiskey 173]

No way will Cesc be in a 2 man midfield in this one.

And I said what? I clearly said Im sure we'll play 4-3-3.

[thekid9 418]

he was atrocious in the first half and had good 20 minutes in the 2nd.

I Can't even remember the last time Oscar was "one of the better players"

[hjperdeath 2,226]

Same lineup as yesterday. Willian for Schurrle.

[CHOULO19 24,332]

Can't see Everton playing as offensive as they did against Arsenal. Baines and Coleman won't overlap as much.

Last season we met them at a very similar way. They drew their opening games, we were doing well.... They done us 1-0 in a game we dominated. I can see this going the same way. I'd take a point right now. It's a game we can win but i just cannot see it.

[The Skipper 20,593]

Last season the problem was that we didn't take our chances. With the likes of Fabregas and Costa in our squad now we'll 100% be more efficient. If it's a similar game to last season I think (hoping) we'll win comfortably.
