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

[chippy1722]

you couldnt write it Maupay still our starter for new season

Unfortunately plenty wrote it at the end of last season.

If Godfrey starts at CB, we lose

As much as we hate Keane, Godfrey is miles worse than Keane as a CB, IMHO. At least Keane occasionally has a good game clearing crosses

I think we’d get away with Godfrey at CB, more than Maupay up front.

i know it wont happen but if DCL can only do 45 please make it the 1st half

They’ll give away a pen either way

 

[ElGato]

I'd like to see us line up like this:

Pickford
Patterson Tark Branthwaite Young
Gana
Iwobi Garner Onana Danjuma
DCL​

On paper that's not a bad team. However I envisage that Keane, Doucoure and Maupay will start. And on paper that is a bad team

1-0 Everton

 

[Jeff Jones]

Away win.

Nothing has changed.

They beat us at Goodison last season for the first time ever in the league. That was a big change.

 

[JamesEFC]

Despite all the doom and gloom I’m started to get excited for Saturday, can’t wait to be back in that ground.

And yes, I really don’t know why I do it to myself

Doucoure starts in any Everton side at the moment, him & McNeil have been our best under Dyche, in a side that desperately lacks goals, you don't take a midfielder out that is capable of them.

Any news on Tarkowski?

 

[Toffe3m4n]

Any news on Tarkowski?

Suspect we may find out on Thursday

 

[Eggs]

….interesting game this one, as Fulham beat us comfortably at Goodison very recently when we were fighting for our lives.

I hope this is closer, if we can get something it will either be an indication that we’ve improved or that they’ve gone backwards.

 

[Gaffa]

Team will be
Pickford
Patterson Keane Tarks Young
Garner Gueye Onana Doucoure Iwobi
Maupay

Danjuma and DCL will be subs as Will Mykolenko

Going off what Dyche is saying in the press

​

Don't build your hopes up Blues, this is the start of what's going to be a very long Season for us. COYB!

I'd bite your hand off for a draw right now

I'd bite your hand off for a draw right now

My initial thought was a 1-3 defeat, but I wanted to start the Season off by being a bit more positive.
