Match Thread Burnley v Everton - Team Prediction, Match Report & MotM Poll

[Tramps_mate]

What's our formation!!

McNeill left back??

 

[Billy Dean]

We will see how it goes but the random back line shape change is an idea I dislike

I can imagine it’s to mitigate the fact that Godfrey and Keane are not very good

 

[Rich1878]

No Beto on the bench. What's up with him?

Everton team news
Team to face Burnley: Pickford, Godfrey, Patterson, Keane, Tarkowski, Garner, Onana, Doucoure, McNeil, Harrison, Calvert-Lewin.

Subs: Virginia, Campbell, Metcalfe, Chermiti, Beto, Lonergan, Hunt, Danjuma, Dobbin.

 

[Neiler]

Need to switch on better then that Nathan.

McNeill left back??

Yes
5/4/1

 

[ForeverEverton]

Don`t think I`m suggesting Dyche isn`t the right man.... this is typical of him though, back 5 and drop straight back in to your own 18 yard box against a team that has won 2 games in 16, why change from the tried and tested formation and go for them?

Frustrating!

It's not random though, is it? We've got one fit first team full back. Dyche clearly doesn't like the idea of Godfrey as a full back and I agree. We played this way against villa and it worked, so let's see.

5-4-1. Not very exciting, tough to press out of that

 

[RomanReigns]

Very easy for them to get behind it seems

 

[NorthernBlue]

Stuck in the mud stuff from us so far

 

[Tommy Chong]

Under the cosh already....

 

[jazzy]

Agreed

Set up for a point

 

[Amw79]

Not sure about the shape here. Players don’t look comfortable.

 

[Mase]

Not a fan of the tactic, but doubt Dyche trusts Godfrey as LB

 

[AirMo]

Poor Doucoure getting a row off Tarkowski
