Match Thread Leicester City 1-1 Everton - Saturday 21st September - 15:00

[Vintage]

Of course there be a bug going through the squad on top of everything. When it rains it pours with Everton.
Sympathies to Gana on the passing of his father

Well Harrison is likely to be out so that opens a space up, Leicester's biggest weakness is their defence we have to go there with an attacking mindset looking to win the game and not cancel them out.

Pickford
Dixon
Tarkowski
O'Brien
Myko

Mangala
Iroegbunam

N'Diaye
McNeil
Lindstrom

DCL

gotta be this

ah didn’t know about gana

and maybe if we have a patched up

team make them work
together more?

 

[Gilbert..]

Always get the impression now other clubs smell blood when Everton are coming to visit. Thats where im really disapointed in dyche. I thought at least teams would hate playing his Everton as we wont be a soft touch. We've become the complete opposite.

Maybe Matty. Got a draw at Chelsea that time with a patched up side when Branthwaithe scored so you never know

 

[W84 Dum Freeze]

From what I have gleaned from the Ginger Oracle he is laying the groundwork for putting Keane on the bench (couldn't risk it after the scan) and James Garner is off the grass and on the porcelain still.
Gana has a family bereavement so may be out of country.
Young offers him cover for both full backs off the bench.
People saying Harrison is out....

Pickford
Dixon - Tarkowski - O'Brien - Mykolenko
Lindstrom - Mangala - Iroegbunam - McNeil
N'Diaye
DCL

I don't think he is going to bring Doucoure into the #10 slot as N'Diaye seems to offer more attacking-wise. Unless he thinks Doucoure can convert to a central midfield (3) without the ball.

Who am I kidding... Sean Dyche goes for Doucoure all day. So the open question is should he play Lindstrom or N'Diaye on the right

Who are you kidding, it will be Young on the right if Harrison doesn't beat the bug.

I can't see him starting Lindstrom after his comments in the presser and the showing in the cup.

Assuming all of those who are borderline are passed fit, I think it will be.

Pickford

Garner
Keane
Tarkowski
Young

Iroebugnam
Mangala
Doucoure

Ndiaye
DCL
McNeill

why not start lindstrom?

he’s offers something else gets into good positions

Dyche comments about "it's alright doing it in a cup game, but these are the real matches" or words to that effect, I just don't think he will put him in from the start.

To be honest, I wasn't really impressed with him against Southampton. He'll only ever be a squad player for us as long as McNeill and Ndiaye are fit.

 

[Vintage]

Both defences are crap. There should be goals in this one. Channelling my inner Michael Owen I think the team that concedes the least will win.
2-2

I'd take that now.

 

[micknick]

We've literally go about 7 fit outfield players, tough ask this one.

two one on ones tells me he’s trying

Two missed one on ones tell me he's probably not very good.

Dyche watches him all week in training and obviously doesn't fancy him or O'Brien but he's starting N'Diaye and I fully expect he starts Mangala tomorrow.

Do you think a lack of effort is the main problem, Matty? I don't personally, I just think we're carrying too many players who aren't Premier League players.
