Everton 2nd February

[Tredman]

Boly starts and Stern John on the bench out of nowhere

 

[AndyWolves]

Vinagre drops out for some reason

 

[lemonjelly]

never mind that. what's kenny doing on their bench? :argh:

 

[Norman Deeley]

Assume Vinagre must be injured?

 

[AndyWolves]

That Everton team looks decent

 

[AndyWolves]

No idrissa gueye though

 

[Tredman]

Assume Vinagre must be injured?

Would've thought Giles would be in as a like for like replacement if that was the case?

 

[Dire Wolf]

Who is John?

 

[Tredman]

Cameron, plays for the U23s

 

[Paul]

Cameron, plays for the U23s

Vote of confidence or are we that short of defenders ?

 

[White Wolf]

Harsh on Saiss but it's the right team IMO.

Only seen him once at CB, but looks good and highly rated by the club. Can't see him actually getting on the pitch with Saiss on the bench, but it's a good way to integrate younger players.

Giles was on bench for last game. Sometimes I think Nuno prefers to have an extra centre back on the bench, sometimes a wing back. Vinagre must be injured or carrying a knock currently as he didn't play at Shrewsbury either?

Vinagre came on against West Ham and sprinted like a nutter when he did. Looked ok to me.

 

[YoungWolf]

Oh yeah good point!! Maybe as it's an away game he wants extra cover for the back three. But then Saiss is on the bench too. I dunno then!

 

[Tredman]

Stuck in my mind as he properly went full speed when he ran on.

 

[Jinky]

He's clearly injured.

Pleased to see Boly back in. This is our strongest 11 IMO.

 

[jdrodrigues]

Will only be able to check the result at the end. Hoping for a good match and, hopefully, a good result. Would be an awesome birthday present as well!!

 

[Parkins left foot]

Right team - Saiss has done more than OK at CB to cover Boly's absence, but the latter is a much better CB

Nothing else needs changing

 

[The Bear]

Looking at our game and Jota next on SSN.
