Match Thread Everton v Brighton - Preview, Match Report & MotM Poll

[knowing your history]

Saw on another forum that Onana injured, Young replacement

Gana would just come back in if that is the case although that will create a problem if Garner gets moved as ball will then be passed more slowly.

Hope not, Garner-Onana has the potential to be a very decent pivot infront of the backline with what both offer.

I suspect the Brighton and Palace games will be harder than the United match. Just watching their game against Fulham and Utd are truly awful

My wife and I were just talking about United (her family support Man U) but knowing us they'll slap us all over the pitch. But you're right, they look awful.

Really need 3 points today by looking at the table. Palace v Burnley and Wolves v Sheffield United today. Granted those two go the way we imagine, it would stink to see them further the gap on the table. Great chance for us today at home to get a massive 3 points and keep up with those around us.

An optimistic 2-0 prediction from me today

This fixture 6 months ago would have been an expected loss. Have brighton really suffered from summer sales? - have we improved? Or is this just blind blue optimism.

Onana out, Gueye in

 

[HalfTimeSayers]

Taken me a long time to warm to him, but shame for Onana to miss out now he’s finally put in a good run of performances. Straight swap hopefully with no silly repositioning.

Young v Mitoma

 

[HalfTimeSayers]

Young v Mitoma

Don’t worry. Bags of experience and won’t do anything stupid. That’s why he was brought in.

 

[Armaghtoffee]

Surely not putting Young up against Mitoma??

 

[Victus]

Yeah I now think we'll struggle with Gueye in the team, he has too many mares in him.

 

[Liam-EFC]

Gana is a disaster.

Garner and Young both playing right back. Doucoure as a false 6.
