Match Thread Everton v Leicester Wed 31 Jan, 19:45

[Jeff Jones]

Hopefully Mahrez signs for Citeh

Don't think it will happen - fee issues - but I don't think he'll play if it isn't resolved one way or the other.

BTW, I've just had a look at the rest of the fixtures and I'm a bit less anxious about this
match, because we've got matches against some awful teams left.

Fingers crossed he doesn't, I fear he'll rip Cuco a new one.

He’s definitely not playing tonight either way. Hasn’t travelled with the squad

@Iceman11 put us out of our misery and tell us what awful team we will send out to get beat 3-0

Thanks I feel slightly better, I'm going to look at remaining fixtures after Arsenal.

West Brom looked a good fixture, last home game.

Can understand no Holgate, he was awful last week. But it's gonna be a loooong night of hoofing it to DCL again.

He's our only currently fit defender with pace, Keane, jagielka or Williams will get slaughtered with Leicestershire pace

 

[adi dassler]

The lid that gets the line ups right also said Holgate isn't starting.


God help us with the pace Leicester have

Not said the full 11 yet, just 7 changes, Rooney and siggy starts as does Niasse and no Holgate

Pickford
Coleman
Keane
Jags
Cuco
Davies
Gana
Sig
Rooney
Walcott
Niasse

That's what i've seen and the fella is usually spot on tbf

 

[Big Fat Sam]

We're the least threatening team in the league when it comes to attacking, and probably the worst team in the league when it comes to defending.

We luckily (and it was) picked up points before Christmas, but now we're absolutely stinking the place out and looking worse with each passing week.

So forget the fixtures, we'll be lucky to pick up three wins between now and the end of the season. The only question is will 36/37 points be enough for us to stay up?

300m to get relegated, Everton that.

 

[devogue]

Pickford
Coleman
Keane
Jags
Cuco
Davies
Gana
Sig
Rooney
Walcott
Niasse



Dissapointed about Tosun. Still think he can be a good player, maybe he should have been eased in...

Rooney on the wing is horrific tho

Not if our offside trap is in our own six yard box.

I mean, they'll get slaughtered anyway, but that's the logic I'm guessing.

Rooney in midfield, no Schneiderlin, Coleman starting, Oumar doing what Oumar does. Would be happy with that.

Siggy on the wing Rooney sitting in with Gana and Davies, going back to the West Ham formation

I'm not sure about Davies, but as the only other alternative is Schneiderlin then we have no choice I suppose. Keane and Jags worry me, as well as the obvious at left back

 

[gonetomorrow]

Walcott and Tosun up front please.
