Everton (Away) C1 SF 1st Leg : Pre Match Thread

Channel 525 if you have a foxtel subscription however you have to pay extra for this channel around 5 dollars per month I think.

Thanks, I'm at my brothers house in Queensland currently, he's got Foxtel but I don't think he's got channel 525.

Have Everton sold out for Wednesday? Still on sale according to their official site.

Is Delph fit? Physioroom say he's out, but the Injury News on www.mcfc.co.uk doesn't mention him.

This is why 0-0 in Goodison Park ISN'T a good result for us. If, in the second leg, Everton gets a goal, we MUST put at least 2 to go through.

better than losing 3-0,this away goal rule isn't anything new....

All will be sorted weds night will stick a few quid on Everton,that will stop them...on a serious note just hope we can keep it tight but can see us conceding will go for a 2.1 us or 2.2..

lukaku against mangala is giving me the fear already

I'm less worried when he has someone to mark, like against Leicester. It's when he has to think strategically that I'm most afraid.

Spot on!
Everton poor form at home. We'll be up for it and I expect Pellers to pick his strongest side. About time we got a good away win, so we can take it easier in the home leg. Mangala to master Lukaku: Aguero hat trick: Caballero to throw one in: Baines free kick: 5-2 for City.
Piece of piss!

Not sure, but Delph may be not in tomorrow.
I expect an offensive 4-2-3-1 as usual. Sterling had just 45 mins at Watford, should be ready to start left wing.
Silva looked quite flat to me last game! Maybe KDB starts in the middle, Navas right wing. Silva on later.
We are really short on the wings. Delph tried at Arsenal, didn't work well.
Right now Sterling, KDB and Navas have to share the match time. They need a bit of support.
Who could help out wide? Our full backs maybe as all the 4 seem to be fit? Tricky this.

Sanè won't be allowed to leave Schalke now they say. Anyway.

I just hope he plays his strongest team and doesn't turn into an under 11's manager again where everyone gets a game.

Not sure what team I'd play either. Looking at the Stoke v Liverpool game I hope we don;t pick up any injuries tomorrow. Really physical game. I think liverpool had 3 hamstring injuries. I think they have 12 players out now.

I'd play Silva off Aguero and let them play together and get someone like De Bruyne joining from midfield but we want to play it slowly slowly with Yaya spreading the play in midfield and Sterling and De Bruyne out wide. It's unlikely we'll make big changes for a game like this but it will be interesting if Toure plays. We played Liverpool trying to use Yaya's passing accuracy as a way of blowing them out and it massively backfired on us. Was that a one off? I think Pellegrini might put Yaya on the bench and then bring him on in the 2nd half.

Thanks for the information about Sane. I hear Hernandez has been playing really well for Bayer Leverkusen.
