I know I'm down after today, but reckon we'll get our normal mullering up there. They know us and they know our soft underbelly too

Really looking forward to this one. Love a weekender in Liverpool and Goodison Park.
Bottom of the table, nil points and low expectations. If it rains and is anywhere near as cold as last season, then the conditions will be perfect.
Noble back in as skipper.

i would play the following team:
Fab
Zab
Diop
Balbuena
Masuaku
Sanchez
Noble
Obiang
Arnie
Yarmo
Hernandez
or stick Snodgrass in place of either Yarmo or Noble (dependent on how attacking we want to be)

Players that are useless 8 times out of ten but always score against us
So far
Welbeck
Sturridge
Traore
Get all your cash on Walcott or Niasse
I would go
Fab
Diop Ogbonna Balbuena
Zab Cress
Sanchez Obiang
Yarma Andersen
Arnie

Yup. Used the **** me off big time Leon Osman never scored against anybody else, but never failed to score against us every time he played, or so it seemed and has Cenk Tosser scored this season yet ? If not, you know what'll happen

it kind of went like antonio's mistake against crystal palace ( i believe?) last season, right at the death...
everton aint man city, pelle must kick our lazy arses and get them to put a shift in
with the performance we had against arsenal we would have comfortably won today..
if hudds can get something there, so can we

After Wolves & after this game last season, I just can't see us getting anything out of this. Or will West Ham pleasantly surprise us?
At least we've got two weeks off until then..

I'd like to see us be attacking:
---------------------------Fabianski--------
Fredericks------Balbuena----Diop------Mausaku (Cresswell sadly if Masuaku is injured)
---------------Sanchez-----------Wilshire---------
---Yarmolenko-------------------Anderson
---------Arnautovic------------Chicharito------
I considered Obiang for Wilshire to add some help. I think if Masuaku is hurt Cresswell needs so much help that Obiang would have to come in.
Tough to show on a messageboard lineup, but I'd have Arnie a bit behind Chicharito with license to roam, and all 4 of the front players given the flexibility to switch sides and position during the run of play.

oh okay stating facts is being a masochist...we are bottom...zero points from 4 games, 2 at home to sides who we should at least be "winning" or taking points from if not all 3....scored 2, 1 from a p.k. and having a -8 g.d.
think today they said the only team with zero points in all divisions...yep double checked.....ONLY team with ZERO points in all 4 divs......
so guilty as charged then......

Really, we have to play again? Thank god it's in two weeks...
I've had a lot of time for Antonio but unless he's deployed up-front, he's dropped for me. I also really wanted to see Cresswell back but after yesterday I'm not so sure.
So for me I'm with Cellar-Door's line-up and I'd too like to see Arnie play just off the striker and get more involved:
---------------------------Fabianski--------
Fredericks------Balbuena----Diop------Mausaku
---------------Sanchez-----------Wilshire---------
---Yarmolenko-------------------Anderson
---------Arnautovic------------Chicharito------
Potential changes from this would be Snodgrass for Chicharito so Anderson can play inside, or Obiang for Chicharito if we want more bodies in the middle.
