I'm already thinking about Sunday...
I think Rafa should play the following:
Reina
Arbeola Hyypia Carra Riise
Pennant Alonso Gerrard Benayoun
Torres Crouch
Why?
I think Moyes will expect us to play the same team/formation apart from Masher (suspended)
Everton are good in the air eg.) lescott/yakubu/jagyelker(sp) so we need Hyypia back and Riise to provide good aerial cover. Hyypia is also the most experienced player we have.
Kuyt and Babel need a rest and Benayoun has the skill to the unlock a deep defence at home. Pennant has impressed me since he came back from injury.
Crouch needs a game and I think he should get his go.
If torres doesn't make it, I'd risk Babel upfront.
