Match Thread Everton v AFC Bournemouth - Preview, Match Report & MotM Poll

he need to stop chopping and changing this defence, no wonder we can't keep clean sheets, no time for any partnerships to build up.

Agreed.

It looks like he has no conviction in his own decisions. It's very poor management.

Zouma over Mina is idiotic.

A loan player who is a calamity waiting to happen, over our own big money signing who needs to adapt to the league. It's completely shambolic management.

Honestly think Mina fits the calamity waiting to happen description more than Zouma....although the neither has really shone more than the other.

3 no more than okay centre backs and a bad defensive record is the current status.

It was the only way to find out his best pairing which I think is Keane and Zouma. Mina looks ok but I don't know, I'm not 100%.

No thanks, our midget quota is filled by Bernard, and Fraser is even smaller.

My eyesight’s not that good, I’d struggle to see him from the stand

Mina could piggyback them around

 

[Frang]

Lets hope those useless midgets perform on the wing.

Had to swerve today, at home drinking night nurse, so we will win 5 or 6 nil, we always do when I miss a game at home.

get well soon buddy x

Mina could piggyback them around

Both at the same time

 

[BlueToff]

Agreed.

It looks like he has no conviction in his own decisions. It's very poor management.

Hang on, isn't this the same defence that started our last league game, though?

 

[Saint Domingo]

Probably our best 11 if you accept all the centrebacks are equal. Worries me though that a Chelsea loanee is getting game time over our 30 million pound centreback.

Think Zouma will probably have been preferred because of his pace.

Taking the FA Cup out of the equation, it's the same partnership that started our last league game.

 

[Brett Angell Delight]

Hope Bernard gives Clyne nightmares today.

 

[BirkenheadBlue]

Hang on, isn't this the same defence that started our last league game, though?

It’s also the same defence that started in our best run of the season.

 

[Izzy1878]

Yep, Keane and Zouma is our best pairing atm. Mina seems a bit too rash for this league.

 

[BlueToff]

Probably our best 11 if you accept all the centrebacks are equal. Worries me though that a Chelsea loanee is getting game time over our 30 million pound centreback.

It's probably just horses for courses.

King is quick, Fraser is quick. Zouma has more pace than Mina.

 

[Saint Domingo]

Bets on which of their players hits a 30 yard snorter today.

 

[BlueToff]

Yep, Keane and Zouma is our best pairing atm. Mina seems a bit too rash for this league.

I don't think that's the case as much as it is just Zouma being a better fit to play against a quick frontline.

 

[Eggs]

...i’m amazed Keane starts ahead of Mina. Just goes to show that I have no idea.
