Match Thread Bournemouth 1-0 Everton Sat, 4 Jan 15:00

[W84 Dum Freeze]

Is it too much to ask people to share opinions on what they'd like to see different?

No risk, no reward, Branthwaite has the quality to play a killer pass, maybe Broja has the pace to capitalise on it but will others have the belief to get up and support him ?

 

[Drico]

Makes me weep the money Thelwell has wasted on strikers who cannot score goals.

And people want to give this clown "a chance with money".

 

[GrandOldTeam]

Do you agree with starting Mykolenko and Doucoure again ?

Id long shared my opinion on Mykolenko - Id like to see Patterson right back and Young left back but Young has been doing well at right back, and I've no idea if Patterson is any good so not going to have a breakdown over it.

Don't think we have anyone - a CM - in that bench who can replace Doucoure?

 

[edge]

What would you have done different?

Dont know what he would do but i would have put young on the otherside.
patterson in .
myko on the bench.
Played broja a bit wide ,
DLC up front,
lindstrom on the bench.
Just to try something diffrend as this formation hasnt really go good results.
Maybe today it might fingers crossed.

Dyche, his assistants (Chuckle brothers) and Thelwell all want binning and start again.

 

[Armaghtoffee]

If I was picking team I would go:

Branthwaite Tarks O’Brien

Young Mangala Gana Ndiaye

Lindstrom

DCL. Broja

 

[GrandOldTeam]

How old are you?

Not the first time it's been asked.

What's wrong sunshine?

Asking people to share their opinions on what they'd like to see the manager do rather than just saying it's crap is now immature?

Soft get

Has Broja ever played as a number 10/supporting striker?

Has NDiaye ever played as a right winger?

According to transfermarkt, it's no:

Iliman Ndiaye - Player profile 25/26

Iliman Ndiaye, 25, from Senegal ➤ Everton FC, since 2024 ➤ Right Winger ➤ Market value: €35.00m ➤ * 06/03/2000 in Rouen, France

www.transfermarkt.co.uk

Agree we need to play players in their natural position, so changing 2 for Harrison - I'm not so sure. That's a lot to accommodate Harrison to play left wing.

He's put Broja in for Calvert-Lewin when people said he wouldn't, and put Lindstrom back in.

For me it is the formation that has to change given the limited player change options. Current set up makes scoring goals so, so unlikely in normal play.

Someone above said 3 5 2, I like that, it keeps the dyche focus on defending the narrow V but adds at least one player in the forward areas, 2 or 3 if the wing backs are allowed to operate as actual wing backs.

I don’t think we do, so we either keep playing him, or change formation. Play 2 strikers, or put Ndiaye in the centre, and play Harrison and Lindstrom as wingers. (Even though neither is much good) Our options are very limited, but Doucoure has been that bad, that I think we should try something different. Hopefully he proves me wrong and plays well today

Doucoure is playing more as a 10 though. There are things to try. Try a different formation . Try 3 at the back. Try 2 up top.. Try something different.
We have failed to score in is it 7 of our last 9 games . So what we are doing isn't working . Maybe changing things won't either . But surely it's worth a go .

 

[MaximusEvertonius]

The news about Chermitti is a little troubling. Maybe see him in February at the latest? I’ve been wanting to see him up front for so long now.

He drops back in off the ball. I look at the bench and struggle to see who he drops Doucoure for.

Happens all the time. Player is out for ages with issue, can't train so when they do come back they get little things like this happen to them due to the body not being up to it yet.
