Match Thread Liverpool vs Everton - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[Curtis]

Sooner Simms starting than Maupay

I think a two up top of maupay and simms could of worked but if we're playing a lone striker definitely agree

 

[Tony’s Carp]

Is Simms pacy enough to cause these problems?

Not as good in the air or holding it up as Dom?

Probably better finisher on floor ?

Not as pacy or as physical as Dom *used* into be. Might not be far off on either post injury though. And yeah, I think he’s a better finisher from what I’ve seen.

One of those players who has decent pace when gets into a stride but not quick acceleration. Honestly he just needs to make a nuisance of himself tonight try and get a freekick in areas where we hopefully punish from set plays.

4 centrebacks on the bench

 

[Charles Hawtrey]

Simms will be hungrier than Maupay for sure - very dychean

 

[Davideeyore]

Come on Simms lad.

 

[blue61]

Fill yer boots Ellis lid.

4 centrebacks on the bench

Only 1 keeper though so not expecting to win

Absolutely buzzing for Ellis Simms. He's had to be patient but what a game to start in. I was praying he played Simms if DCL was out but didn't actually dyche would do it.

Just hope Doucoure and Onana take the long agonizing runs into the box to help him, otherwise it'll be a long night for him up top alone imho.

So same lineup as last week but with Simms subbing in for Calvert-Lewin?

That'll do.

 

[Azza]

So glad we didn't sign anyone in Jan.

Mick Keggers and and Yerry up top for the last 10 if we are chasing a goal. Mina can hold it up and Keane can finish. Dyche and dusted.

 

[Saint Domingo]

Bold move from Dyche, love it, just throw Simms in from the start, keep them guessing.
