Match Thread Doncaster Rovers vs Everton - Preview, Match Report & MotM Poll

[anton66]

It's as much a statement form Dyche as anything else - 'give me more players'.

Although agreed it doesn't give the youths the greatest sign.

Don’t know what his problem is playing young lads?

not sure many of the same players will feature for either team, as when we last played them lol

 

[Tommy Chong]

If we can’t score tonight with that team, then we really should just pack it in!

 

[dublinbluenose]

5 in midfield, thought he would've went 442

 

[Bramley-Girl Dock]

Crapping myself here

 

[DanB90]

Absolutley disastrous decision to start anyone pther than non essential first teamers and academy players.

Wait till you see this backfire.

We need to breed a semblance of a winning mentality amongst these players.

Confidence is likely on the floor.

Looking more of a 433 that to me.

 

[coollino]

It will be interesting to see how Chermiti gets on seeing that he was actually working in KFC until 21

 

[Furey1878]

Do we think it's

433/451:

Pickford

Patterson
Keane
Godfrey
Mykolenko

Onana
Doucoure
Garner

Danjuma
Chermitti
Dobbin

or 442:

Pickford

Patterson
Keane
Godfrey
Mykolenko

Garner
Onana
Doucoure
Dobbin

Danjuma
Chermitti

?

U mean Beto

 

[mahermi1]

Would love to see Danjuma to score, Chermiti to score and Beto to complete his hatrick.

 

[OneTrueLegend]

I'll give Virginia a run out - looked decent in one of our preseason games and Pickford hasn't exactly been electric. Godfrey and Myko back in and try playing Garner more central. Chermiti up top. Would be nice to have a decent cup run for once.

we should destroy Doncaster, or get 0-2 up and play keep ball. But the reality is we very rarely do that to the minnows, its generally hard work. I could see a situation where they score first, early on, cling on for 70 minutes and eventually tire, we equalize and win on pens.

 

[Preki]

Would love to see Danjuma to score, Chermiti to score and Beto to complete his hatrick.

Any win would do or it's media doom and gloom.

Fully expect this game to go to penalties tbf

….hope not, I‘ve got my 20 month old grandson living here at the moment and he tends to wake at 5am. My daughter and son-in-law are also here in the midst of moving house but it’s Grandad who gets the early call.
