West Ham Utd 2 Everton 2 (04/03/06)
Walker
Scaloni Anton Gabbidon Koncheski
Yossi Mullins Reo Coker Matty
Marlon Ashton
But Hislop will probably stay in goal

well
Id agree for an outfield player but not so much for a keeper as they dont need as much stamana as an outfield player

3 clean sheets in a row ...
i know , lets drop the keeper !
as much as we'd all like to see Jimmy get a first team game , what kind of message would that send to the players ?
thankfully - thats not Pardews style .
the squad picks itself at the moment - apart from which of the 4/5 strikers should start . personally I'd go with Bobby and Ashton for this one ... mainly because Zamora's been on fire recently ... and Harewood makes a massive impact when he's subbed on .
Great to be in the position that - no matter who starts up front - we'll still have a great forward line .
roll on Saturday .

The clean sheet is down to the back 4 and Shaka hasnt had too much to do.

point taken Dan - but Pardew's talked about rotating the strikers since the Ashton signing ... they're all well aware of it . It's a long season and it's common practice , I've never heard of any manager rotating the keepers though ... and it aint gonna happen .
you're doin Shaka a bit of a disservice there too mate, as well as we've defended , he's still made some vital saves !
well
Dont get me wrong but Walker is a quality keeper and he is one of the reasons we are in the premier league.

It's a no-brainer...Hislop deserves his place in the team at the moment. It was only a few weeks ago that people were complaining that we weren't keeping any clean sheets. Now we are and you want to change the keeper? Very odd.
I'd agree with the rest of your selection though Dan.
Re: well
No as Konchesky is a better left back obviously Zamora playes as does Newton on occasion.2 goals coles wrote: I make you right

From your sarcasam I take it you think Walker is crap then

So you'd play two very similar strikers up font eh? Zamordinho and Ashton are both flick-on, hold up play and play the ball around sort of players. Neither have the pace of Katan or Harewood, which is why Pards either players Zammo & Harewood, Harewood & Ashton. Either of these partnerships work superbly together and include the 2nd top English goal scorer in them Harewood running at people is just frightening for defenders and with Stubbs and Weir (2 old ish and slow players) Harewood can run rings around them!Sound Kev wrote:3 clean sheets in a row ...

Ashton and Harewood for me! Stunning partnership IMO!

agree totally with what you're saying (apart from Katan having pace?)
Harewood is clearly no.1 , and chances are it'll be him and Deano upfront on Saturday ... gotta keep an eye on the fact that we've got a hectic week starting Sat 11th though - with possibly 4 games in a very short space of time - do we need to risk Marlon for the whole of the Everton game ?
Zamora's form has been superb this season too .
Ok , he's quite similar to Ashton .. but who says they can't play together ? they need time to get to know each others runs etc . Jury's still out on that partnership .
whoever starts- we're in the enviable position of having 4 excellent-(proven!)
goalscorers in the squad ..
