Match Thread Everton v Fulham (Sat 29th 15:00)

[TheBigIguana]

I don't know why they don't stick Fraser Hornby upfront for a bit till Jan.
What's to lose he's young doing decent for u23's? and will be hungry,
he's certainly worth a punt than the underachieving players we have there atm..
wouldn't be surprised one bit if he got more goals than these strikers have also.

Don't think he's scored for the u23s or at least he hasn't often. He had a bunch of goals for Scotland u21s which is an even lower standard. Meanwhile DCL has scored at senior level and is only a bit older. But he's crap right?

 

[BlueToff]

He’s digging his own grave and he uses Calvert-Lewin instead of a shovel.

No he isn't.

Fulham play a high line - usually - and DCL can get in behind. Tosun can't. Tosun has also been playing poorly.

So, it's then whether he risks moving Richarlison central, and then what if he has a bad game there?

Fans wouldn't be happy either way.

 

[BlueToff]

You can tell silva has given up on this season. That may not be a bad thing if we can develop some youngsters, but I can only imagine our fan base will become restless.

lol

friggin hell, it's seven games in, chill

That team played well last week. What's the issue???

 

[BlueToff]

some laughable comments in here, as there always is.

enjoy the game fellas

to be fair DCL has put in quite a few decent shifts also some terrible, more Tosun I think he deserves
to be in the side over him at least. It would be nice to see someone hungry for once [upfront]

DCL. He has been the weak link the last two weeks. I’m fine with him getting starts as long as we can get him going, but Tosun is the better option right now regardless of how Fulham play.

Fulham have lost 21 in a row at Goodison Park. Well that’s a Fulham victory then, cheers bbc.

 

[Sona]

We moan about a lack of consistency in being unable to select the same team; we play well away to Arsenal, we stick with the same team and people moan about the team selection.

The game hasn’t even started yet.

It honestly baffles me the arrogance of some of our so-called supporters, that they can slate the manager and genuinely think that they know better. “So and so should’ve started”, “why’s he playing him?”, “clueless”, etc.

Have a word with yourselves, give your heads a collective wobble and get behind the team for once. Sick of it!

 

[riddick]

This is the first opportunity we've had to build some kind of continuity. Is it our best team? Who knows but it's good enough to give another go.

If DCL is in it that's an easy "no".

 

[TheBigIguana]

If DCL is in it that's an easy "no".

I think we should revisit this later

You’re just as laughable sometimes with your condescending tripe Blue. I’m fine with the lineup. You’re just being obnoxious.

Aki's on the way to squeeze the man juice out your muscles lid
good luck pumping your chicken arms when Richarlison scores a worldie.

Tim Ream, first premier league game of season after being injured. Probably couldn’t have picked a better set of strikers to not have to worry about. Goals are going to have to come from wide again.

 

[GwladysBlue]

That's the option if we don't play DCL and Davies like you suggested.

Pickford
Kenny Keane Zouma Digne
Gana
Lookman Sigurdsson Bernard
Richarlison Walcott

Tosun out of form still has 3 times the quality of DCL
