Match Thread Everton v Southampton Sunday 27th Nov KO 16:30

Where is McCarthy? He only can play for Ireland?

 

[BlueToff]

A settled back 4 particularly. Jagielka's had a bad run of games but he's twice the player Mori is and will get back into form in due course.

Hopefully mate.

Personally I think Jags did need to be dropped. But... He's back in so he gets my full support.

The issue is there is just no spark at the moment.

The players need to start quickly instead of the malaise they always settle into.

Was convincing until it got to Lennon

Bahaha

 

[Jib in lad]

Lets wait and see, not confident at all.

Jagielka starts after his latest fiascos, but he was dropped for his previous run of poor form.

"Decisive manager".

I have no idea what this feller is using as a metric for form and selection. Is he sticking a pin in a squad sheet?

Could it not be, that he simply doesn't fancy Mori?

Nothing more sinister than that?

 

[maccavennie]

Not really - as the players who came on last week didn't really do much either?

They're all out of form.

Holgate? not given a chance
Davies? not given a chance
why not try Del behind Lukaku for a change?

it's the managers job to find winning formulas, not stick with the same crap game after game that simply doesn't work.

The top7 teams in the premiership are actually in the top 7. Which tells me that its a strong league this year with all the good teams. We need to keep up with them try get a few wins going into the window cause we are in danger of dropping into a midtable scrap fast. Get to the window still with something to go for in the league and spend spend spend. Let's limp towards Jan with a win today. COYB.

But who playes instead? FM has been dreadful recently.

Still no Tadic for them.

Where would you play Holgate? Put him up against Austin, or take out Coleman who was one of the only players to perform last week?

He obviously doesn't think Davies is ready, and as he sees him every game in training he probably knows better than you or I.

Del has been tosh.

 

[eurosrees]

Loads of wingers, absolute nonsense as backups for the striker or midfield position.

 

[JonS]

Shocking how there's only one change in this blag windup lineup from the actual lineup.

Bahaha

Indeed!

 

[CahillsCornerFlag]

Hard not to see an easy Saints win here, prove me wrong blues.

 

[Groucho]

I think today's line up would be our strongest with Mirallas for Lennon maybe?
