Match Thread Everton 1-1 Wolverhampton Wanderers 19:30 Weds 7th January 2026.

[Charles Hawtrey]

Pickford
Patterson - Tarkowski - O'Brien - Mykolenko
Garner - Armstrong
Dibling - Rohl - Grealish
Barry

Toughest dcision is to include Rohl or Iroegbunam. Rohl better going forward I guess.

2-0 win here I hope

UTFT!!

Team selection is vital here, if we see O'Brien RB again I think this could turn very, very ugly.

What do you mean "if" mate?

Don’t see Armstrong starting this one but will in cup game

 

[davids]

Think this'll be a draw

Id play Beto before Barry. Causes more problems for defenders. We need to start on the front foot. Patterson at right back. OBrien centre half.

smash smash smash 1-0 i will gladly be happy

Gonna be a cold one tonight, just taken the dogs for a walk on Crosby beach and the wind goes through you.

It's a cold stadium.

When you move away from it and back out beyond the dock wall the temperature goes up...IMO markedly.

 

[Blue Alert]

All these people saying it’ll be a draw. It may still be, of course, but on paper this is the EASIEST game of the season.

Whatever XI Moyes shoves out there, I’ll be very disappointed if we don’t win.

Or Branthwaite makes Tarkowski looks better?

I recall us with Tarkowski and Coady... we were 19th that season without Keane playing a single minute.

I don't buy into the Keane has a bad impact on Tarkowski. Its like when Tarkowski or anyone makes a mistake an people start to grasp at straws to blame Keane.

For me, Keane has been better than Tarkowski this season.

Need to get Branners fit and play him with O'Brien for our CB pairing and get shut of the two you mention.

Replace rohl with Armstrong, and put Tim beside garner

We win if he plays anyone but O’Brien at RB

 

[TheBigIguana]

Whilst that is true in part (for me we expect more from Tarkowski so when he performs at Keane’s level we slate him), Keane makes everyone around him look worse, including Tarkowski, IMO.

When Tarkowski has played cb with O’Brien we’ve looked our best as a collective defensive unit, and obvs when Branthwaite plays we look sound.

What if Tarkowski is responsible for his own performances?
