Stones: We must make Chelsea afraid of us
Everton centre back John Stones says that his team will go to Chelsea with a positive attitude and they must make the Londoners fear his Everton side.
Everton face Chelsea on the back of a third straight clean sheet and on the back of a tough match in the Merseyside derby, but says that his team need to go there with a place and break them down.
“We will approach it as any other game, go in with a positive attitude and see how we can do,” he said.
“They have a better balance in their team (than last season). Jose Mourinho is very good at picking his players and we have to go there with a plan, stick to it and see how we can break them down while playing our game.
“If we can do that, put a stamp on the game, and make Chelsea afraid of us in some sense I don’t think we will do too bad.
“The gaffer wants us to play from the back so we will keep it moving on how we bring it out and start our football from the back.
“We will definitely go to Chelsea with that mentality of getting it out, playing it how we do, with a positive attitude.”

Going to be a hard task getting Chelsea afraid specially at the Bridge
I agree Bob, we have had many draws there under Moyes though and we were unlucky last season.0-0 and nick one at the end, Lukaku, he ought to be fired up for this game. Pay back is in the air!!!
Playing with 2 wingers is the way forward, Ross has to start or come on earlier, Barry has to be dropped now, far too erratic and costly. If Lukaku is rubbish like Sat, bring Kone on at half time! Simple!!!!!!
