Match Thread Everton 0-3 Brighton - Sat 17 Aug 2024 - Kick Off: 15:00

[Curtis]

Forgot the teams are released earlier this season.



As expected, Dyche ha gone for his trusted players and our new signings will come on at the 85th minute or if we have an injury (and change the game).

I like the ashley young pic as just imagine him listening to all the boos when mitoma cuts him up on the pitch

 

[Rob J]

Feel sorry for O Brien - he is probably the only person on Earth that thought he’d be starting!

 

[blue to the bone]

….they also have the aerial threat of Dunk who has caused us real problems in the past.

O brien is also 6ft 6 .

 

[Paul Rideout]

Oh **** off Sean

 

[Curtis]

I guess he’s thinking it’s nice to have better players to bring off the bench.

At the 85th minute

Dyche has bottled that big time.

The fume has commenced.

It’s just stupid that he refuses to play his better players because of some misguided loyalty. I can’t stand managers playing favorites at the expense of progress, and that’s what Dyche continues to do.

No Ndiaye, Young playing.
Only Everton can kill the excitement of a new season so easily.

 

[matty1878]

He wanted the said players in early, so they`ve been in training with these players and played friendlies, it`s not like they`ve just tipped up...

i know

 

[Toffe3m4n]

Not an awful lot to that side really is there? Ironically, Iroegbunam starting is only down to Garner being injured otherwise not a single new signing would be involved from the off.

I'm absolutely convinced by the way that Dyche isn't really arsed about the first 4-5 games of the season. Just seems to go through the motions a bit.. almost as if he treats them as an extension of pre season..

 

[Kev The Rat]

We lose today the knives will be out on the back of this lineup alone

 

[jamieni]

Normal service resumes then.

 

[chippy1722]

What is the timeliness around Branthwaite? Wasn't it supposed to be a minor injury, well he's had the whole pre season to deal with it what happened is he on the grass or is it Dyche fit.

I don’t expect to see him in an Everton shirt again.

 

[Paul Rideout]

Keane over JOB
Holgate over Dixon on the bench.

**** right off Dyche, if we lose this, it’s on you

 

[matty1878]

ohhhh the footys back
