And CSKA out there if you give them the chances you gave Basle Tuesday. They'll be a step up from them on their own patch and have already won out in Lisbon.

This will be a curse that will haunt me, but not been impressed by Everton at all this season, that 3 at the back system is just not suited for them imo.

Koeman's madly intent on playing that way but doesn't have the right personnel right now.

Something else Blues hate him for. But then if Evertonians aren't narking about Everton they aren't happy so that's not much of a gauge of anything haha.

Will be tough game no doubt always is out there. Watched the game and Lisbon defence made ours against Stoke look world class. Will be tough but should get a result out there, even a draw ain't bad.
 
I wouldn't say I "hate' Fellaini or anyone in our team, that word just isn't right to use.

I have no doubt Fellaini or Young can play the odd game and be effective. But when we have aspirations for big trophies and you need them to fill in for sustained period of times with injury to Pogba now. That's when I'm a lot less confident.

Young is better going forwards than Valencia. Fellaini has actually been very good this season, i hate to say. More than just his goals, his link up and passing has been excellent. They will be just fine.
 
If we are on the front foot, and we are most games, I'd play Young at right back over Valencia. Because he can actually deliver from out wide

I guess the time shall judge on Fellaini - no doubt he has started this season welli, these next 6 or so games without Pogba are crucial, we have to pick up majority of points from them.

Let's not forget we have Herrera too.
 
As a life long pet owner and big animal lover, I LOVE this! Really made me smile.

Sounds the same in our house lol. Got a white and Grey 2yr old Shitzu. Then got a black and white kitten 3 nights ago, and the dogs terrified. Won't eat near the cat won't go up or down the stairs if the cats near it runs a mile if the cat take one step towards it :)

XD XD Bless. They'll get used to each other ..... eventually lol. Good that the dogs still dead young too and they'll grow up together because the kitten will wear him/ her out when they do haha.
 
Another international break in 3 weeks as well. Lets hope he's not just getting back around then and ends up playing for France in **** games and getting injured again. I'd rather him be out for 5/6 weeks and avoid that.
 
Just been watching some clips and a match he played against Scotland. Charlie McCann reminds me of Davide Petrucci very talented CM/AM who was unlucky with injuries. Excellent passing long and short. Decent free kick and long shot, not as good as Petrucci but sure will get better with age. Not rapid but good burst and glides past players. Likes to get stuck in also. Will defo be one to watch, will most likely replace Gomes once he gets promoted to the u23s later in the year.
 
Have little doubt we'll see a different Everton at Old Trafford on Sunday though.
