Crying shame if soon-to-be-leaving Doucoure is started over needs-to-convince-club-to-sign-him Alcaraz. Make the right call Moist.

This decision could mean the difference between winning the game or dropping another two points. Beto still has to prove he can be our starting CF, but the two games he started with Alcaraz made us look a real problem for teams when we went forward. When brought on Alcaraz hasn`t had the same impact. He`s up to speed now with 6 weeks under his belt and Doucoure sucks the life out of most attacks we have. Won`t surprise me to see Doucoure start again though.
 
Like it or not Dyche and now Moyes think Doucoure plays well when he is in the team. I don’t see it to be fair, and would start Alcaraz before him every time, but we have to accept that our managers see something in him they want in the side. I think Doucoure will start and Alcaraz will be a substitution again. My concern is that Doucoure gets offered an extension and Alcaraz then thinks “why should I stay with these if I am always going to be second fiddle to him”. That would be a sickener, because I am pretty sure there will be other Prem sides sniffing after him!

I am making the trip over from the U.S. for my first ever game. For all I know this may be my only time seeing the blues in person.

I could not secure tickets through the Everton website, so I’m keeping my fingers extra crossed that the tickets I bought online are legitimate.

Assuming everything goes to plan, we will hit up the Winslow for a pre-match pint or two and then head to the stadium early to soak it all in.

If anyone has any other matchday advice or recommendations for our stay in Liverpool, feel free to comment or send me a message. UTFT

Have a wonderful trip mate.

Cheers mate. This is much appreciated. We will 1000% be checking out BMD on Friday at some point. We’re staying in the city centre so I’m sure we’ll just take a walk over there. Was hoping to do the Goodison tour but it’s been booked for ages. I’m sure I’ll drop some dough at the Everton store as well as it will be hard to resist.

Try to schedule a pre match visit to St Luke's ( diagonally opposite the Winslow and next to the Holy Trinity Statue) . As others have said the fans zone is well worth a visit.

Apart from Everton there is so much to enjoy in the city centre.

I actually prefer Doucoure. He is good at leading the press. I know many think he’s crap, but I just think his physicality is useful.

We need to try and outmuscle West Ham, I think. They are not the most physical of sides.
