Match Thread Everton v Fulham - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[Tree13]

Olsen, Holgate, Coleman, Gomes, Bernard and King should probably all start this game. We have a few lads who played 144 minutes yesterday (thanks to the ref) and with the congested fixture list ahead of us we need to be squeezing some decent performances out of the players who have featured less regularly to date.

Olsen
Holgate Mina Keane Nkounkou
Coleman Gomes Davies Bernard
Rodriguez King​

 

[Tony1985]

Perfect opportunity for King to step up and start earning a contract. Easy 2-0 hopefully.

 

[Billy Dean]

Fulham are better than the table suggests. We'll need to be on it.

After last night dont expect fireworks from us, this week was all about the cup, the next 6 days are all about preparation for the Derby.
Lots of rested legs and rotating players

 

[Tofeenut]

Calvert Lewin seems well and good !

 

[Tofeenut]

Will Allan be back for this one?

No idea but he’s back to full training now

 

[COYB75]

Definitely need to rest a few players but still have enough to deal with Fulham. Confidence should be high.
Virginia
Coleman, Holgate, Godfrey, Nkounkou
Gomes, Davies
Iwobi, James, Bernard
King

Subs - Olsen, Godfrey, Mina, Keane, Richy, Digne, Siggs, Broadhead, Doucoure

 

[Jo3Fr3sh]

This is going to be a trap game. We need to keep the focus and energy against all teams.

 

[ForeverBlue92]

Fulham will come at us and have energy so hopefully we have some fresh legs on the pitch to match them.

James
Gomes
King
Allan

Hopefully all fit and able to come in - got a feeling James will still be out though and maybe Allan starting off the bench.

Didn't hear anything about him last night, did he pick up a knock in training?

Slight knock mate

Slight knock mate

Hopefully involved Sunday then, he's upped his game the last few weeks and I worried last night with him out,Rodriguez and Allan out but Davies and Doucoure put in the hard yards for us.

 

[RomanReigns]

Fulham are better than the table suggests. We'll need to be on it.

True but we have just scored 8 goals against Man Utd and Tottenham in our last 2 games and confidence is sky high and Fulham have failed to score in 4 of their last 5 games

 

[Caolam]

I thought Allan was still out for this one but back for the City game.

Olsen

Keane Mina Godfrey

Coleman Holgate Davies Delph. Bernard

King. Richy

Slow start, Fulham score first. We huff and puff and eventually get an equaliser. 1-1 FT, everyone talks about another missed opportunity.

Don't get me wrong we should win this, but we've been here a few times before this season haven't we?

I think our attitude and team spirit has altered. It might be as a result of a smaller squad but I feel all has changed.
