Everton vs Sporting lisbon

[Gary Iceman]

its another tough one, but im going for a 2-0. saha and arteta (freekick)  can JH play in this round? if he can then same team as last night if not would you play neville with sylvain and put coleman RB ?

[BlueWool]

Heitinga can't play. It will be Distin and Senderos

[blueToffee]

This, and unless Fellaini is fit I'd expect the same line up barring the Senderos > Heitinga switch.

[Endless, Nameless]

Heitinga can't play. It will be Distin and Senderos

That is still pissing me off.
Anyway, I'd go with:

Howard
Coleman Senderos Distin Baines
Donovan Fellaini Osman Pienaar
Cahill
Saha

[Gary Iceman]

i didnt think senderos could play in it.. oh well deffo senderos and distin.

[DannyR]

I dont think the big man will be playing in this game, but it will be benefical to have penuts back

Well I'd put Neville in Felli's place then.

I don't think that's necessary in Europe. Osman and Arteta will be fine, especially if Osman plays like a terrier again. Probably best to keep Neville at the back against Sporting, too much to ask of Coleman probably.

We could do with some added creativity imo. Coleman could well do that, so I'd at least sub him on later.

I still don't think Arteta should be starting anything.

2-2

Yak
Anichebe
Fernandez
Liedson

[Fellainis Hairdresser]

That is still pissing me off.
Anyway, I'd go with:

Howard
Coleman Senderos Distin Baines
Donovan Fellaini Osman Pienaar
Cahill
Saha

why does everyone put coleman in there team, he is not going to start for a long time!

"I'd go with"

I don't expect that to be the team, but it's what I'd like.

[blue for you]

 Howard
neville senderos distin baines
donovan ossie arteta bily
              cahill
                 saha
thats if fellaini is not fit , give pienaar a break for a match or two

[Haile GAZrselassie]

all i ask for is a clean sheet to take to lisbon.

id like to think a couple of goals for us is not too much to ask as well but i wont be greedy and settle for one.

a clean sheet is imperative though.

trouble is. i really like the lad liedson and with senderos not having played much, and distin not as quick as he once was i fear liedson may have a decent time up against them.

anyone know their form going into the game? i know it picked up a shed load since getting their current coach in 10 weeks ago or so but what are their last 5 or 6 games reading like?

[Gash]

I really haven't a clue what will happen. If Saturday's team turns up we're in trouble, if Wednesdays team turns up we'll win, easily.
