Just two kick-offs this Sunday as Arsenal travel up to Goodison Park to try and capitalise on United’s draw at Villa Park and move into second place while Chelsea look to open up a lead of 5 or 6 points – depending on the Arsenal result – to their closest rivals at the top.

Everton have recalled Seamus Coleman and Johnny Heitinga to their starting line-up in place of Diniyar Bilyaletdinov and the suspended Marouanne Fellaini. Arsenal meanwhile recall Samir Nasri in place of Thomas Rosicky, the teams in full are…

Everton XI: Howard, Neville, Jagielka, Distin, Baines, Coleman, Arteta, Heitinga, Pienaar, Cahill, Saha.

Arsenal XI: Fabianski, Sagna, Djourou, Squillaci, Clichy, Nasri, Song, Wilshere, Arshavin, Fabregas, Chamakh

    Nasri --> Albrighton
    Tevez --> Carroll

    Long term prospects, what do you think?? 12 point hit (I know) but im thinkin it would do me till the January WC...?

    team would be:

    robinson
    cashley - kolarov - vidic - ridgewell

      Looks very good, but I'd ditch Torres rather than Tevez.

      He's injury prone in a dire side. Tevez will rack up assists as well as (assuming Mancini instructs his team to attack at some point this season) goals, and bonuses. Unless you need a differential?

          City's fixtures are a little kinder, but Liverpool's run isn't bad either. But they do raise their game for the big teams these days - drew with Arsenal, beat Chelsea and nearly scrounged an unjust draw with United.

          Ultimately just go with your gut. I've been following the crowd on my captaincies this past month and scored bupkis. I just went with my gut and went with VDV this week. Paid off.
