Match Thread Everton v Brentford - Up for the Cup Preview, Match Report & MotM Poll

[ToffeeTim]

Starting to get a bit worried about him going forward. Obviously he shouldn't start this game if he has a knock.

 

[NathDogg]

Surely Lamps won’t pick Rondon if DCL out.

He has to unleash Dobbin. Think I'd start cenk even.

Don't care that rondon scored a hatty on international duty, I never want to see him near the team again.

Thankfully our new man will know this and give him time to ease the knock for Tuesday, if it was Benitez he’d probably start him regardless like he did Mina

Front 3 of Gray Richarlison Gordon for me

Happy enough with that mate, I'm thinkin he may rest a few of the normal first teamers?

 

[CahillsCornerFlag]

I’d like to see:

Pickford
Patterson Mina Godfrey Mykolenko
Allan Gomes Gbamin
Gordon Rich Gray

3-0 to the good guys.

Id like to go pretty strong because we need to win a football match. A loss at home to start off wont do us any good.

Only ones I'd look to rest are likes of DCL who has a knock and Coleman and maybe Mina, who can't play twice in 3 days. Other than that, go as strong as possible. We have injuries and 3 cup tied so can't make wholesale changes anyway.

Think I’d go Dobbin, after Cenk revealed he wants £1m to tear up his contract he should be left to rot.

Aye, like him winning the lottery that transfer - one of many shockers we've made.

Pickford

JJK. Mina. Godfrey. Mykolenko

Allan. Gomes.

Gordon. Townsend Gray.

Richy

Pickford
Patterson Mina Godfrey Mykolenko
Allan Gomes Gbamin
Gordon Rich Gray

3-0 to the good guys.

I’d be alright with that, though I have a funny feeling Onyango is going to be the poster boy for Frank’s love of promoting the youth.

 

[AussieToffee11]

It's a serious shame that this is Frank's first match and we can't play either of the two new signings.

I suspect though he will go with a mix of experience and youth.

Pickford
Coleman Mina Godfrey Mykolenko
Gomes Allan
Townsend Gordon Grey
Richarlison

Begovic, Patterson, Keane, Holgate, Onyango, JPG, Dobbin, Iwobi, Rondon,

Midfield is a real worry without Doucoure, VDB and Alli, which is why I don't think he will go 4-3-3 unless he wants to throw Onyango into the fray...

A 2-1 win is optimistic.

I feel your pain but in all seriousness Ill walk and swim to wherever in the world you are and buy you a beer if Rondon starts.

 

[BigBlueConk]

The game will be won or lost on the pitch.

This is a very generous offer.

I like you.

Thing is, you know it's a safe bet that nobody on this site drinks beer.
