These line ups speak a little of the sort of functional sides Everton had under Moyes. A bit of craft, a lot of exprience and ability to work very, very hard.

For me the key thing here is that we have options on the bench that we can rely upon.
N'Zogbia shouldn't be anywhere near the first 11.

Why should we have more of the ball at home than away?Two teams playing each other on the same size pitch with the same size ball. The only difference might be kit colour.I can't get my head around why teams think they have to play differently depending on the venue.Was the game always like this or is this concept something that only came in with Sky?
Mind you, i do agree with you that we should stick to one formation with this team. Hopefully we can come up with a few more ideas than MON used to, enabling us to change a particular situation at any time.
Like you allude to, MON's biggest failing was being tactically inflexible
