Everton FC: Fans’ forum
A DISAPPOINTING start to the season at Blackburn, with an uncharacteristic error by Tim Howard.[LNB]It would be easy to blame him solely for the defeat but he has been one of Everton's sound performers since joining the club.[LNB]Specifically, there were enough creative players on the pitch to salvage a point.[LNB]However, consistency cannot be said of Louis Saha who sadly, looks way past his best and it would be appropriate now, to sell and potentially bring in someone like Peter Crouch.[LNB] Equally, Heitinga's omission was a surprise considering Blackburn's known tactics and Fellaini's lack of match fitness.[LNB]Everton's performances will undoubtedly improve as the season progresses but it is vitally important that the personnel are played in their favoured positions.[LNB]Primarily, Pienaar, Osman and Bilayletdinov are central midfielders.[LNB]Furthermore, it would be prudent to bring in specialised wide players who can cross the ball accurately. Alternatively, why not try a 3-5-2 formation with Coleman and Baines as wing backs.[LNB]Everton need to end the huff and puff tactics and start to winning games starting with Wolves.[LNB]David Kearns, Aintree
