Everton (A) 4/12: Build-Up & Match Thread

[The Bear]

4-3-3 Just to shoehorn Lemina in.

Much rather it was 4-2-3-1 to give us more width.

That 3 in midfield doesn’t work…. Shoehorned.

I may have kept toti in just because he’s more physical than bueno, although he is a liability…

Glad to see Guedes starting (o wow, what were the odds on saying that 2 months ago)

 

[Squeak]

4-3-3 then... or who knows what mix he comes up with...

 

[YoungWolf]

Could it be a back 3 with Lemina? That’s what I would be tempted to do anyway.

Most likely 433 with Lemina in some weird role

Could easily be Lemina pushed up on the right, as tried (and failed) before.

How many keepers are on the bench?

 

[prawnking]

2 keepers on the bench...

Maybe it's a precaution in case Johnstone feels poorly again

In total...3. So we've out done Everton 2-1...see, we're beating them already. #SquadDepthAyWe

Most definitely will have a sniffle in this weather

I still think a our midfield 3 would be ok if set up properly. As YW said, it could easily be a back 3 including Lemina.

Are any of them really keepers?

 

[Aikiwolf]

I like the look of that right hand side. Plenty of hard work, graft and tracking back.

 

[Tony Towner]

LL says it a back 3/5

 

[Lupo]

Apparently Johnstone feels a bit sick and may be ok for the first half but unlikely to make the bench for the second

Sa 'keeps' pissing me off

Are the U21 playing tonight/tomorrow? So no one to drag over to fill that 9th spot.

Just disappointed we didn't get King included as well.

Same time. Pond and Cundle are playing

I'll have the house to myself (well apart from my little one in bed), game on Prime and fridge full of beer...so a night of numb horror is ensured

My numb horror is having Jacqui Oatley and Dave Edwards pretend chat wittering through their crib sheets all bloody match when all I want is for them to reduce it by at least 50%. Why can't they just STFU for a few seconds? For us football fans we want to be able to concentrate on the match!
Maybe I can find a random commentator in a language I do not fully understand and I can practise.

Unless we’re 3-0 up with 5 mins to go I’ll be watching Arsenal v Man U.

Thinking Lemina will play more in a back 3 than midfield. Will 2 goals or 3 goals be needed to win? Still no clean sheet.
