Yeah, but don't forget, they're not exactly ripping it up. Spurs fans must be just as frustrated as we've been, and we've
actually improved lately.

Too many blues thinking too much about them, if i was Spurs i wouldnt fancy a night game at Goodison

Pickford
Coleman Tarkowski Keane Mykolenko
Iwobi Dourcoure Gueye Onana McNeil
Gray

Subs if we need a goal:
Simms on for one of Gueye or Onana, go 442 with one of Gray or Iwobi in support
Patterson on for Coleman
Garner on for Gueye or Onana
Maupay up top with Simms if time is running out

Subs if we're defending a lead:
Maupay on for Gray or Iwobi
Patterson for Gray or Iwobi, move to a back 5 with Coleman RCB, Coleman off for Godfrey if need be
Davies or Garner on for Onana

 

[GoldenToffee]

1-0 or 2-1 to us, or a 1-1 draw tonight.

In any case, goal for Gray by penalty.

 

[ToffeeTim]

Not a game we can really afford to lose with a trip to OT in 5 days to follow

 

[Swartzy]

Does feel like it's time for Keane to put one in now, as Mcneil and Tarks have already helped our 'ex Burnley Saviour' cause.

 

[toffeemeister77]

Please, please, please win tonight! COYB!!!!!

I was nodding away until I reached that bit.

I'd keep that lad as far away from a defence as is possible. He's a calamity.

 

[Mozza1987]

Fancy us tonight. Spurs are poor at the moment and being at home makes me confident.

Bounce back after a fired manager is a real thing. bad timing for conte to get the sack

Everton unbeaten in 12 out of 13 games played at home on a Monday night!

Spurs No manager!

We’re in a bit of form!

I really want to believe we can get a result here, huge opportunity to grab a point, even a draw jumps us up to 15th. They have no manager and have some turmoil....but they are still 5th and ordinarily this would be a tough one for a bottom half club to get anything with.

A crazy win and the entire conversation about this season changes.

 

[Cameron Manning]

I am not convinced either way on this one. Dyche should have them raring to go after the break but that wiould be new for us as we have seldom had good results after a break. Spurs are going through a bit of turmoil but still fighting for a champions league place. Stellinin wont want his first game really in charge to be in the L column. Depends who turns up for them and who turns up for us.
If we score first and Pickford is on his game then I could forsee at least a point.

the result is just too difficult to call.

It’s not really that difficult Charles if you try a bit harder, come on be brave, make it a win for the Blues!!

Alternatively you could keep Coleman on and get Godfrey into a back 3.

If Coleman is looking leggy but Dyche doesn't switch to a back 5 I suspect he will put Godfrey in to defend a lead over Patterson.
