I don't mind being linked with other strikers like lopez, but i do wonder why we have a number of strikers at the club already (velios, gueye, strac....) and they are not being given a proper go ! I know i do not have a view of the day to day running and see what they do in training, but, we need to give them a go surely.

Im wondering the same thing aswell, vellious has proven he is good enough to start, geuye has been getting great reviews in his reserve matches and when in the first team looks good not forgetting he had a good pre season before his injury, not sure about denis the games he has played in i thought he did well, set up goal for drenthe, put himself about and was a handful, but not really had a chance since! Like the poster says we dont knw whats happening in training but if moyes didnt think he was any good then he wouldnt be putting him on the bench! Maybe just waiting for the right time! Woud like to see barkley,gueye,vellious and denis all on the pitch at the same time, but i understand that is way too risky for a league game at the moment but maybe see it in the fa cup against a lower league team! Anyway fulham on sunday, must win game i would like to be surprised when i hear the team news for once! Fingers crossed we kick ass :-)

howard
coleman,jags,heitinga,baines
mcfadden/barkley,fellaini,osman,drenthe
cahill
vellios

reasons:hibberts s**t distin is strong but far too slow and no more than 1 season left in him, rodwell is over rated, saha is a cry baby when hes not in top form so this gives us quick cb's quick fb's quick wingers and 1 skillful and 1 strong cm with 2 ttrue goalscores further up

Distin too slow? What you taking about? Distin is quick hes one of our fastest players!

If distin is one of our quickest god help us!

Distin has been class for a long while for us and he has even out performed jags recently

Bez the blue

McFadden is not good enough to start in the reserves, never mind the first team

Distin slow ???

Distin is one of our fastest players, OP you do not know what your talking about...

Sick of reading about evertons lack of atacking options! We have loads of options but moyes chooses to leave them out and play the same system,same players and same predictable football, why wont he just change things! Whats with all his negativety?

Howard
Jags - Heitinga - Distin - Baines
Fellaini
Coleman - Drenthe
Barkley
Vellios - Saha

I'd love to see Moyes play this team and formation, solid back four with fellaini helping out a bit when they attack and then a decent strike force for when we go forwards.

Barkley is good but I think he made a few (costly) mistakes in his first games - so he needs more experience - so a toss up between him n rodders


and definitiely gueye in for coleman

How is he going to gain experience unless he actually plays?!? If hes making mistakes its cos hes getting involved and tying unlike certain players who pass on responsibilty and hide!!
