Disgusted that Lampard has left his signings out of the squad and not started any injured players

Coleman and Keane and gomes. Why do managers insist on playing these. They are not good enough

Captain was likely to start, Mina only back at club yesterday, Doucoure injured. Engage brain and use logic more

This is amazing... "get behind the manager! We need to stick with him, give him time, its ok if he makes a few mistakes"

Selection comes out for his first game and he's already blown it and the sky is falling.

We are very short on midfielders, but I’ll be honest I’m really disappointed to see 5 defenders. Home against Brentford with a free shot - league has to be priority - we should be going for it. Guessing Mina is just being preserved. Hope we see Patterson as a sub.

Not playing 433 or starting Haaland?

Limpard* OUT!!

The playing style might be different though?

Exactly this.

 

[Saint Domingo]

Stop crying, he’s gone, deal with it

Just laughable the hypocrisy on here. Suddenly five defenders on the team sheet is a back three when a fortnight ago it was a back 5.

It just proves the point I was making all along there’s only so many viable solutions in this squad.

 

[Zeitgeist]

Excited for this

 

[Noisy noise annoys]

Have the “get out of our club” shout’s started yet?

 

[Saint Domingo]

The playing style might be different though?

Let’s hope so. I just find it laughable that 5 at the back was anathema to Everton fans a fortnight ago but now apparently it’s 343 even though a ball hadn’t been kicked yet.

Could see Chelsea and WHU both out today.

This is on.

It might not be either, it looks it on paper but could easily be 2 at the back with the third in the midfield
