Looking forward to seeing Robles as I wonder whether he can actually rival Howard for a starting place.

They've changed it to 9 now.It's like the drawing of the lottery balls ha ha. Roberto Martinez has hinted at the majority of his starting line-up to face Krasnodar on Thursday. At his pre-match press conference at Finch Farm on Thursday, the Blues boss named nine players before adding 'some exciting youngsters' will make up the XI. "It's a game that is a celebration," Martinez told the media. "With one game to go we are top of the group and Krasnodar have no opportunity to go through. That allows us to experiment with the line-up without devaluing the competition. "Joel Robles will play in goal and we're going to have Christian Atsu, Steven Pienaar, Arouna Kone, Bryan Oviedo, Conor McAleny, Antolin Alcaraz, Tyias Browning and Luke Garbutt playing because they have been working extremely well. "And then we're going to have a couple of youngsters that are really, really exciting. I don't want to mention their names just yet. It's exciting for us as a Club to show another two diamonds of our development system to show the good work being done in a fantastic environment. "It's a really exciting game that I'm sure every Evertonian is looking forward to. We'll feel extremely proud of the individuals on the pitch."

I'm guessing Hibbert is one, up front with Kone.
