Next game is in a couple of days, so I assume Hughes will rotate. Who do you bring in? Walters? Joselu, Adam? Should be interesting.

Suspect anyone a bit sore after today to be given a week to recover (Whelan, Cameron, maybe Shaq if not 100%).
Expect MVG and Diouf to start.
Just possible the FBs may be given a rest, but I doubt it.

Rotate against West Brom there will be blood otherwise. Same team for Everton if we can, then give them a week before Liverpool

We were the early kick-off, stick the same team out Monday (Everton) & then give a few key players a rest in Saturday's game (West Brom) so they can be ready for the semi-final on Tuesday (Liverpool) reserves out the Saturday after that (Doncaster) so it can be back to the main guys for Wednesday (Norwich), Sunday (Arsenal), Saturday (Leicester) and the second semi on Tuesday (Liverpool).

I think Hughsie rested a few in the second half today, to be honest.

I think Hughsie rested a few in the second half today, to be honest. That makes a bit more sense. Glenn could use a rest as could geoff and we had MVG and Adam ready to go and up for it. It worked for us. Hopefully everyone is rested and fit for Everton who are playing now and will have less time to recover. |

I'd rather not have West Scrum roughing up our flair players so with Liverpool in mind I'd be tempted to play a fringe team.
I'm sure Walters will be up for the scrap.

Second string for West Brom definitely.

Wolly
Pieters
Van Ginkle
Cameron
Walters

Will be a difficult game, particularly with Everton winning today albeit not convincingly.
Would take a draw and then move on to batter the Baggies.

I know it was a very late goal but was it not convincing? The stats read like they battered Newcastle in to next week. 60% possession away from home, 7 shots on target to 1 from Newcastle, I could go on... |

Will be one of our tougher games. Just need not to overreact if we get beat. The Baggies are definitely there for the taking. |

Everton's back 5 is dreadful and we kept clean sheets against them last season so hopefully we should get the win. Same team for me.

I think this one could be a great game.
2 teams with forward lines in cracking form.

Keep the backline and defensive midfield the same, Whelan, Cameron, Shawcross etc can keep playing and playing. They are fine.
We need to protect the likes of Bojan, Arnie, shaq. I would probably keep it the same for Everton. Maybe Shaq and Bojan will need a rest by the game after

Tenth v eleventh
And yet both sides have quality players and play entertaining stuff.
Proof positive that the Premier League has improved.
Or at least the middle of it has.

Need to press what is a fairly ropey Everton defence at times so definitely Diouf plays for me. Do the likes of Bojan, Shaqiri and Arnautovic need a rest? Whoever the least fit of the 3 sacrifice him for Mame. I predict the following team
Butland
Johnson
Shawcross
Wollscheid
Pieters
Whelan
van Ginkel
Afellay
Bojan
Arnautovic
Diouf

I'd be happy with a draw at Everton & a win at West Brom.
Same team as today for Everton and rest Bojan & Shaq for West Brom. I have a feeling they will be targeted by them.
Joselu & Diouf to replace them.

A very tough 1-2 win.......If we can keep delafuieuiueueoi quiet
I reckon Pieters will have a tough afternoon against his pace.
Ryan or Wollscheid will keep Lukaku in their pocket if one steps up and marks him and the other covers......if they play a high line his pace will kill us
Arnie,Bojan and Shaqiri will cause them problems
As a side note, lets see how this John Stones character handles their trickery over 90 minutes
