Biggest Worry for this season

[Eggs]

...whilst it's clearly a concern that we only have one effective CF, my main worry is the lack of drive and creativity in the final third. If we don't create chances we don't score goals, if we don't score goals we don't win football matches. Basic really.

Have you tried spirograph mate. the creative things you can do with that are unreal.

You have my attention.

I voted for "Only two strikers" but to be honest, my biggest worry is that we have no player/tactic capable of providing decent service to the strikers.

Kone will come good.

Watch.

This.

Space.

....even the threat of no contract renewal appears to be having little impact. Players in that situation often up their game and start producing in the hope of being offered an extension but that isn't happening yet. I don't expect there's a queue of clubs wanting him on a lucrative Bosman.

I fear there will be a big run on purple Kool-Aid in L4.

Injuries.
Injuries ruined our season last year and we're starting off hamstrung by the same problems.

Surely sorting this out would be the cheapest and probably most effective way of improving us in both the short and long term.

I'm interested to see how we create chances this season.

Are we going to play through the middle (using our new creative player when he arrives), use wingers (or forwards on the wings) or make space for Baines and Coleman to come forward?

If we don't support the forward/forwards, then obviously it is difficult for them to score. Either Mirallas and Deulofeu could play as an inside forward rather than as a winger. And it would help if they both understood that passing can help others to score too.

I'd like us to improve at corners at both ends.

And I would like the whole squad to be fit and ready for the first game.

Biggest worry is Roberto....

After the inevitable third failed stadium attempt, the happy clappers still bow down to the greatest evertonian in der wurld.

 

[davids]

What is your biggest worry for this season?

Mine is really having only two strikers. One is kone aswell who would struggle to score in the championship. Lukaku needs challenging to progress and stay on form.

Feel free to add your own.

Sorry to have to edit for accuracy.

 

[Khalekan]

I went for "other" simply because there was no "all of the above" option.

 

[Khalekan]

Knowing that I'm going to have to sit and watch them try to break down well-drilled defences with sideways passing.

Slow "sideways passing" at that

 

[Big Fat Sam]

Kone will come good.

Watch.

This.

Space.

Blind faith, I love it!

 

[Big Fat Sam]

Another worry is Barkley continuing his 'reverse development' and getting even worse than he was for most of last season.

One more season like that and he'll be following the Jack Rodwell career path and will be at somebody like Norwich within three years.

 

[Yorkie]

That people are predicting Kone "coming good" when it doesn't look like this:
