Even though I know today is going to be a (very) tough test and in reality a draw would be an excellent result for us.....

I'd be lying if I said I wouldn't be disappointed with anything less than 3 points, what with Arsenal and Chelsea both winning yesterday (especially as the Goons have a fairly easy run of games coming up, want to maintain our lead over them)

Lloris back in -- I think we'll see walker, gallas, caulker, and verts accross the back,... naughton looking too green.

lennon, sandro, dembele, and dempsey in the mid,... but 2 strikers up front? Y Not?!! ade and defoe

Would not be happy with a draws yes they are a tough team but we are the better team, therefore we should be expected to beat them.

I'm excited for this one. It should be a really tough game but we've enough quality and grit to win it, and if we do then I think we'll be spunking over an incredible performance from Lennon.

I am hopeful for three points, if I was happy with anything less before a ball has been kicked then whats the point!

I think people are giving Everton too much credit.

It's nice to feel confident that we have a manager that studies the otherside's weaknesss and sets our pattern of play to explot them, rather than tell the players to "run around a bit"

AVB is meticulous in his preparations. He will be aware that Everton, whilst dangerous - especially in the air, have zero pace.

We will see the high line today pushing Fellani and Jelavic away from the goal and minimising the second balls in and around the box.

No real threat over the top, as the defence are fast enough to recover.

We just need to push their attacking platform (balls into Fellani) into an area where it isn't dangerous.

Push the full backs up and have Dempsey and Lennon pressing the full backs.

If Gallas and their Greek lad Muirelles (sp) play we are fucked. A draw would be a good result a win would be a great result.

Adebayor to play up with Defoe for most of the game, obviously, but also to drop in and keep the link up so JD doesn't get isolated. Sandro to keep a close eye on Fellaini.
Daws is injured isnt he? Otherwise my team too. Picks itself really
