Match Thread West Ham 0-0 Everton - Saturday 9 November - 15:00

[Lob]

I love how Beto is now prime R9 because he scored a tap in against Fulham, let's just forget the fact he can't trap a ball and looks like he won a competition to play for us whenever he has to play longer than 20 minutes.

They are both poor tbh. The only reason why people are wanting Beto is because he scored more recently i think. Note sure it makes any difference who is on though if the other 9 are mostly defending, looking confused and hoofing.

31% and 4 shots on target

Really? Soucek is a unit who'll mix it no problem against Doucs and Mangala.

The way to beat West Ham is to start games quickly and play through them. Chelsea did it and were 3 up within 45 minutes. However that isn't Dyche style at all so it will be a low block, low risk mindset yet again on the road and then panic stations if going 1 down.

Soucek is a good player but if the Everton cm are up for it they should be able to out do theirs but ya need to get into them early and not let them build confidence like Southampton

What’s Beto got to do to get a start ffs, DCL checked out weeks ago. Anyway, tough game, hoping for a draw. COYB

I`d be happy to see him come on with 30 mins to go. Think he would cause serious problems against a tired defense, but would have like to see DCL dropped.

I think Beto coming on when players are tired is not a daft substitution. I think him starting is not something I would not want

Now do Dom.

Are we in the midst of one of his traditional 20 match barren spells?

Best of the bad bunch we have at the club. If he's on it he does the CF role quite well, if he had scored one of his chances against Ipswich it'd been a complete performance for him but let's be honest, majority on here hate him and they hate Dyche so it's hard to reason anymore with any sort of logic or fact.

I’m most excited for Dom’s horrendous miss

 

[Davideeyore]

No score prediction but I'm erring on the positive side we must win I think we will

 

[nsno_traditionally]

Dom has a decent record against West Ham and that's the only positive I'm clinging to with him in the team, another dour performance incoming, buckle up

Here’s a logical question for you. If Beto had played all the minutes Dom has, would he have more than 2 goals?

How I feel tuning in today…

 

[JohnRoss23]

Didn’t even bother looking at the lineup… how we feeling?

 

[Dunc's elbow]

Beto unlucky not to get the nod over DCL. DCL double incoming, 0-2 COYB!

I can dream…

I doubt it, his overall game is crap and the manager won't deviate from his tactics enough to compensate for his lack of positional knowledge. Beto just seems to be like a good sub, he causes chaos because he has no idea what he is doing so neither do opposition players.
