Match Thread Everton 3-0 Doncaster Rovers - EFL Cup Second Round - Tue 27 Aug 7:45pm

[tmgc]

Makes interesting reading. 2 walking dead back in the team

They've Ironside playing for them, last time I seen him he was in a wheelchair.

 

[windymiller]

I'd play

Virginia
Dixon Keane (only due to lack of any alternatives) O'Brien Mykolenko
Iroegbunam Armstrong
N'Diaye Lindstrom Harrison
Beto

But I reckon Dyche will go basically "full strength" as he sees it, with only one or two changes (probably N'Diaye for Doucoure)

Sigh

 

[Woolverhampton_Blue]

Much better. Hope the new lads put on a show and convince Dyche they’re worth starting in the league.

 

[Furey1878]

Happy with the team. Very good to see Coleman and Garner fit to play!

 

[Vintage]

Best starting 11 in the first 3 games
Garner and Coleman back
Even though I wouldn't have risked either of them nor would I have risked playing Mykolenko

 

[Davideeyore]

The start of a glorious run to the next round.

 

[ToffeeTim]

It makes sense to let the lad rest you know, not the thing to be mad about at all.

He's a young lad and it's August. Not sure why he would need rested less than a fortnight into the season. I'm sure he'd want to play and this is a good opportunity to play him.

 

[RomanReigns]

I’m going 4-1

 

[Vintage]

Hopefully Armstrong will get a good few mins in the second half

 

[GrandOldSte117]

0-3, Goodison doesn't make it through the night

 

[Victus]

He's a young lad and it's August. Not sure why he would need rested less than a fortnight into the season. I'm sure he'd want to play and this is a good opportunity to play him.

This is how you run them into the ground, you'd imagine playing against Spurs away for your debut is not only physically draining but also quite mentally draining as well. I'm happy to see them managed like this, literally zero problems.

 

[Vintage]

Think it will be a straight forward win for the Toffees tonight. Dunno when I last said that

 

[Tony’s Carp]

He's a young lad and it's August. Not sure why he would need rested less than a fortnight into the season. I'm sure he'd want to play and this is a good opportunity to play him.

Let’s be honest he’s on when Coleman limps off after 15 minutes so doesn’t really make a difference.

 

[windymiller]

Garner or Coleman or both pull up with injuries in the first half. Nailed on
