Dave Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 http://www.royalbluemersey.com/2012/9/16/3341086/everton-vs-newcastle-match-preview It's still early in the season and if Pardew is in the mood to gamble, he might throw out a 4-3-3 lineup with Ben Arfa deep on the right to occupy Baines. Otherwise expect a pedestrian 4-4-2 with Ben Arfa playing in midfield to watch Pienaar instead. Written by someone on here, or are we really that transparent?

Neil Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 Plus only 2 goals conceded in our last 9 home games in the league. One of which was that fine Tony Hibbert finish on the last day of last season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fugazi Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 Due to a cock-up at work the leave time I put in for this went unnoticed. So I now have to hope I finish my round before 1, then get dropped off in town in time for a 1:45 coach. At work on Tuesday morning as well, gah... /Coolstorybro Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheGuv Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 The "we should have bought some fakin players" will go into orbit if we lose and play badly. So it should if we're missing key players, which is inevitable with a small squad. I think we've had a small squad since 2002/3? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alberto2005 Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 Looking forward to the game after such a long break. I'm really excited to see Ben Arfa aswell. I really expect big things every time he touches the ball. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuy_O Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 I'm just hoping for a performance more than anything. Hope we don't come out in this clumsy lethargical manner in the first 10 or 20 minutes, the calling card for one of our s*** displays. Be great to see us start full of running and attacking intent, much like WBA last season. Obviously formations may hinder that and its a bit of a cliche, but a good start is key imo.

Guest firetotheworks Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 Im looking forward to there being a 50/50 challenge in the centre circle and the Everton fans screaming for a hand ball and a penalty. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest firetotheworks Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 Im also looking forward to whatever cuntishness they get away with this time. Gravesen going through Bernard then getting a shit pen, Fellaini elbowing Williamson in his life, and then Jelavic juggling the ball twice before scoring. Can't wait.

alexf Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 Hate to say it because the Everton fans on this forum are excellent but really dislike everton, or more specifically some of their players. Fellani despite all this praise he has been getting is still a dirty player. Elbows someone every time he plays against us. Phil Neville. No reason needed. Jelavic aswell, for some reason everything about him annoys me which culminated in that handball goal last season. Plus the fact they could very easily finish ahead of us this year means I have to hate them that little bit more than normal Still really not confident about tomorrow with so many big guns missing. Wouldn't be confident even if they were fit the way we have been played so far. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Venkman Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 This one's on Pardew imo, we've looked pretty awful so far this season and we need a cohesive performance. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ponsaelius Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 Can see Pardew going for 4-4-2 considering the personnel we have out. He'll see that as a solid formation to protect the weakened defence away from home, when actually we'd be better playing the 'adventurous' formations that actually allow us to keep the ball far better and prevent the defence from being under sustained pressure.

Guest BooBoo Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 I'll be surprised if we avoid defeat but we simply have to put a better performance in from an attacking view. Slump to defeat with another turgid showing and I'll be pretty concerned. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
