it's been the complete opposite for me, i've had Johnson dropped for Anichebe due to Johnson not being able to score (and Vaughan out injured for the whole 1/2 season) and Yakubu has been scoring for fun for me

retired_phoenix11

Yakubu is not a big man :p

would play anichebe instead of yakubu if i am playing with a front two..

but Andy 'Goal' Johnson is bagging so many goals (14 in 12) as a run onto ball target man that i am not going to change my formation..

waterwolf

He's still pretty decent in the air tho, and he's strong so he can hold up the ball.

Im finding him to be really inconsistent tho, but when I play Anichebe he just wont score for me...except when he got 2 against Liverpool

Also, ive just noticed Osman has both Liverpool and Everton listed as his favoured clubs that cant be right can it!

At last a decent Everton team AJ is is true reflection on real life and Lescott is much improved. I cannot wait until the game is released so Evertonians can start acheiving what we were meant to do.

EUROPE:SORRY WERE LATE,WE HAD TROUBLE WITH THE NEIGHBOURS!

Becksmania: A great Post mate, well done.

But Kewell for Everton, Im sorry mate but I wouldnt give the sh!t@ the satisfaction.

Impossible is 0

1st season in now, going well. Am top of prem got dumped out of league cup by port vale tho

Signed Samba to strengthen defence, and Denilson from Arsenal.

Aj scored 12 in 16
Yak got 10 in 15

Alls good so far

atm 3rd in league after 12 games,
AJ scored 18 in 13 so far, Yak and McFadden both fighting for a place in team, McFadden better goals to match ratio atm tho.

I brought in Iago and sent him on loan for his first year.

Also Balazs Dzsudzsak has came in and is loved by the fans.

Cahill just came back and is looking good, Breno is comming in in January, and will probably fight lescott of for a place as seen as he seems to underperform alot.

Really could use a new RB.

retired_TONED1

On 8 game unbeaten run atm.

And if you wanted a good game...

Everton Vs Chelsea.

Lampard scores 2mins, Drogba scores 9, 33.

3-0 at home, Gravesen then gets sent off... Can it get any worse? I take of Yak for Carsley, and go to 4-1-3-1.

41 mins Aj scores, 3-1
42 mins Carsley scores, 3-2

aj has picked up a knock at half time, so bring on McFadden.

62 Arteta With a great freekick, 3-3!


Then.... Drogba nets his hatrik in the 80th min, 3-4

But! I change to a more attacking formation, set to all out attack, and am pinning them back.

85th min, Mcfadden scores what looked a *classic scottish McFadden* strike.

4-4...

I dont change my tactics, i keep it all out attack.

94th min.... i get a corner.

Its lofted in, Mcfadden meets it!!!! 5-4!!!!!

BUT Disaalowed for an apparent foul....
Damn u ref!!!!!

The Fa were silent over my critism too... Was a great game tho

i've just finished pre-season:

Biggest win: 6-0 vs Dinamo (Johnson scored 4)
Worst match: 3-2 vs Standard (had a horrible time trying to sort out my passing, two soft goals from opposition including an error from Nuno)

I'm using a 442 diamond, Neville as DMC, Arteta as right winger, Johnson as fast striker and paired with Yakubu/Mcfadden. Had to use Lescott as DC until Baines comes back from injury

Ins:
Sergey Ignashevich ~ free
Mathieu Flamini ~ loan
Mika Aaritalo ~ 210k (left winger)
Luka Modric ~ 3.2m (AMC behind strikers)

Out:
None

I'm still trying to get my head around the team instructions, sometimes we can dominate, other times we don't have enough possession. Defence seems stable though, just need to get my head around reading games again
