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

[MikeH72]

Err yeah.

Why?

 

[steven]

It’s an absolute disgrace that we are starting a new season with a front three of garner , maupay and Iwobi..and have Michael Keane still starting for us.

 

[CahillsCornerFlag]

Like Groundhog Day seeing Keane in that lineup. Would genuinely be requesting a transfer if I were Branthwaite. Also DCL has to at least be on the bench, he played 45 minutes the other day but isn't fit enough for the bench? Not remotely having that.

Deja vu vs Fulham last season with Maupay up front. Similar result incoming I fear.

 

[matty1878]

Should have just kept Simms till the end of the window to avoid more Maupay.

Saying that, Simms comes off after another quiet game, Covs new striker comes on and quickly scores. So maybe he is actually a bit crap.

 

[Davideeyore]

That line up is very disappointing.

 

[blue in oxford]

OMG ffs Maupay

 

[jamieni]

That starting team is wild. And I don’t mean that in a positive sense

 

[carolinablue232]

Maybe we’ll have turnstile issues and the game will get postponed

 

[gonetomorrow]

Anyone but Maupay.
Dobbin, Cannon, Danjuma.....

 

[wiggum23]

We never learn do we, months to get a striker in and still end up with Maupay.

 

[Paul Rideout]

You can’t legislate for DCL not being fit, nobody could have predicted that.

Come on mate a new nine/forward has been the owners ‘priority number 1’ since Jan.

And most other Evertonians have been asking for one since way before Richarlison left

 

[Dwight K Schrute]

All them players and he starts with F`in Maupay and Keane....

Keane is going to be playing all season. Don't know why anyone expected otherwise.

 

[lungo]

You can’t legislate for DCL not being fit, nobody could have predicted that.

Yup. Never injured and scores wagon loads (1 per season) of goals. Everybody should know that....

 

[14_dollars]

I’d take a draw now.
This is the worst Everton (league) starting XI in living memory.

 

[MACCA75]

Iwobi, Garner and Maupay front 3 . Has to be one of the weakest attacks in Prem history. Cheers Kev.
