I thought Schneiderlin went OK against Newcastle. Like any player, he follows the coach's instructions and he could've been told to cut out the crab stuff and get the ball forward. And why would anyone leave Holgate out who's probably been our best defender? Mina can, and should look after Deeney.

This is another belter. Everton are sitting pretty in 12th on 30 points. If Watford win, they close the gap to four points. I have done enough of Everton this season, and I still cannot work them out. Dominic Calvert-Lewin has been brilliant, their best player by a mile, but I do not get the midfield or the balance at the back. Bernard can be taken off after 45 or 60 minutes - he creates stuff, but he just does not score. I am so unsure of them and cannot make them out. Watford's honesty is probably going to get them over the line here.

Iwobi Davies Sig- all of questionable quality generally, all better in the middle than out wide

It’s why Walcott keeps getting games, and why Bernard keeps getting deployed as a winger despite beating really good centally

Also why I’m willing to play Sidibe as a wing, in addition to the fact that he can’t defend

I like the look of Bernard cutting inside from the left in the last few games and I think Iwobi doing that with quick passes to the front two could be really good.

 

[Who's_up_for_cumpkins?]

Personally couldn't pick a centre mid as the only player I rate is not fit yet.

Picking our centre mid is like me picking a grand national winner, just close your eyes, swirl your finger round and point at the newspaper.

Moise kean defo needs to stay up top now till the end of the season and adapt.

Plus this has the benefit of binning Walcott off and playing richarlison right wing.

 

[Death]

Just want my Everton back.

 

[Death]

With Yank revoking his membership maybe we can go on a run now. No bad karma for this game I’m predicting a win.

 

[Dublin blue 75]

Richarlison returning to his old club in the same week - allegedly - barca came knocking. Goal in him tomorrow.. 1 nil away win and an unlikely clean sheet for me.

 

[Gaffa]

Davies should be no were near our team after Newcastle

 

[Gaffa]

Same team as last game when we played well for 90 minutes, apart from I think he will bring Richy in for Kean, who will be used away from home as a impact last 20 mins. Think we will see more of him at home
Gylfi and Iwobi on bench with Coleman, Lossl, Keane and Davies

I'm sure people are forgetting Walcott, Bernard and Morgan all had good games against Newcastle

 

[Cool_Blue]

I’d rather see Holgate in midfield than some of wasters we have masquerading as midfielders

Everton are away from home.

Nailed on Watford win
