That bad huh? We will be ok mate. Trust me dorf Lol, Dorf has missed that one. If we don't make stupid mistakes we can do this, but not sure how he is going to set the team up with Besic and McCarthy both injured. We might have to just go for it and hope for the best.

Whatever we do don't concede an early goal and sit back and let them get into their stride. Win the loose balls, close them down, and get in their face. Our defensive midfielder is an Ex City player which worries me that he won't flatten one or two.

Everton skipper Phil Jagielka returns for the Capital One Cup semi-final second leg against Manchester City as Roberto Martinez makes four changes from Sunday's defeat against Swansea City. Jagielka joins Ramiro Funes Mori at centre-half, with John Stones moving to right-back and Seamus Coleman dropping to the bench. The other changes see Joel Robles, Tom Cleverley and Leon Osman come in for Tim Howard, Muhamed Besic and Kevin Mirallas. The news means that Cleverley is the only alteration to the side that earned a goalless draw at the Etihad Stadium in the league a fortnight ago - a result that would see the Toffees reach Wembley should it be repeated. Everton: Joel, Baines, Stones, Jagielka, Lukaku, Cleverley, Barry, Deulofeu, Barkley, Osman, Funes Mori. Subs: Oviedo, Kone, Lennon, McCarthy, Pienaar, Coleman, Howard Manchester City: Caballero, Zabaleta, Sterling, Aguero, Delph, Silva, Clichy, Fernandinho, Demichelis, Otamendi, Toure. Subs: Hart, Sagna, Fernando, Navas, De Bruyne, Tasende, Iheanacho.

I'm surprised if McCarthy is fit then he isn't on in place of Besic. Osman ahead of Pienaar is also a bit puzzling if Pienaar is fit.

Do you know.............I have a feeling we'll go through on a score draw! Whilst I'm not confident; with Jags back I think we can get more stability to the defence and Jags will certainly tell the young one (Stones) what NOT to do! I hope you're right. We need leaders on the pitch tonight.
