Match Thread Nottingham Forest vs Everton - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

Obligatory reaction to the lineup, I’ll save some of you time… Michael KEANE?!?! Has Dyche lost his mind?!

 

[Toffeelover]

Oh heavens Keane and Gana, what the ?

 

[Zatara]

Dyche is on a hiding to nothing with this awful squad - the worst in the prem imo - but it depresses me that he is doing exactly what I thought he would and bringing back Michael Keane.

Keane is beyond awful and a total liability. We were finally learning and pushing him out. Bring in his former manager and he is back in the fold. Why not start Mina? If he gets injured we actually have cover in that position, including Keane, so can make a sub no problem.

Don’t get the persistence with Keane after Arsenal. He’s not up for it.

Keane vs Gibbs-White and Johnson isnt ideal.

Its nonsensical to play him. A goal down.

 

[Toffeelover]

Looks like Coady is going back at end of season.

I think based on the fact that Tarkowski and Coady got us into the bottom three, a change would make sense. I am guessing every other team in the bottom 6 have changed their pairings at some point. Keane is more of a threat at a corner too, or it could be Coady just needs a break.

The whole squad is a liability. It doesn’t matter who is out there.

Going from here:

O sorry, I meant on Thursday.

 

[irishgoose]

Gray up front…I like

 

[Saint Domingo]

Myko injured?

 

[EFC_FRANCIS]

How would you freshen it up? Bar Mina coming in for Keane?

I don't think Gray as a lone striker is going to ever be the answer and Vinagre at this point is just a waste of wages

 

[ForeverEverton]

Happy with the changes. Dyche not suffering fools

Play well or dont play at all..... I like it, can he get the results needed? I`m not so sure.... That team looks strong though, that is probably our best XI (Apart from Keane) irrespective of positions.

By that I mean if you wrote our best 11/12/13 players on a piece of paper then just arrange it I`m sure it would look something like this.... Please just win!

 

[Zatara]

I like the look of that line up, it shows we have a proactive manager. He's actually made the changes most of us were hoping for. Great to see Godfrey at left back again. Well great to see him back regardless because he always gives his all. That performance against Haaland is one of the highlights of the season for me, not that there have been many.

Mykolenko isnt on the bench.

Cant see how Keane and Gana start...

Another manager refusing to drop a senior player after awful performances. Not impressed.

Well we have Mina, Holgate and did have Godfrey too. All better than Keane.

He did drop Coady
