Match Thread Everton v Crystal Palace - Match Report and MotM Poll

[Nymzee]

Everton and 3 at the back? Never works.

 

[Bebeto]

What material is Allan made out of?

Its depressing really...the guy just had 10 days off and looks to be injured...

 

[JMT]

Well yeah palace win here

Kenwrights fault isn't it lad you absolute WHOPPER

 

[ToffeeTim]

Don't see how younger = less injuries

Serious injuries can happen to anyone. Recurring injuries more common in older players. Allan has been out three times now, maybe four.

 

[Goat]

Don't see how younger = less injuries

Yep, we signed Delph and Gmblammo in the same window.

1 has 20+ games, the other 2.

 

[sladen90]

Think Virginia is unfortunate not to be starting.

 

[Saint Domingo]

I don't think we ever play our strongest side

Can’t keep any of our decent players fit for more than a few games. How many games have Allan Doucoure James Digne Richalrison DCL all played in this season together? Barely any. There’s always multiple of them missing at any given time.

 

[Dougie]

Hopefully Allan just not well with a bug, but knowing us it’s a hamstring

 

[Librarian]

It’s either a wingback formation or Mason is playing in the midfield 3 with Davies and Gomes

Or Holgate at RB with Coleman in front of him

 

[ForeverBlue92]

I know what you mean but this season has been a freak for injuries for everyone, the games all so close together, no proper pre season, it is fairly understandable really.

Olsen
Allan
Gbamin
Davies
Digne
Gomes
James
Delph

Off the top of my head to have picked up injuries during training or breaks in football.

No other club seems to have this issue to the same extent as we do.

I've said it for years I guarantee its jobs for the boys with our medic department I would hazard a guess that they are nowhere near the level required.

Other teams can play the same 11 every week unless a player picks up a knock during a game. We lose key players just knocking it about at Finch Farm.

 

[Cool_Blue]

Cracking kit that

 

[zukai12_]

Will we ever have our first 11 avalible

 

[marsh]

Please just win

 

[billyblue80]

Not much we could do with no wide players fit

 

[peteblue]

Hopefully Allan just not well with a bug, but knowing us it’s a hamstring

Look he’s done his job and taught Davies how to play football....
