Match Thread Atalanta v Everton - Thursday 14/9

[Furey1878]

Given that Rooney is playing then we have to line up:

Pickford
Holgate----Keane-----Jags------Baines
Schneiderlin/Besic
Gueye/Davies------Sigurdsson/Rooney
Sandro/winger--------------Rooney/Sandro/winger
DCL​

Have you seen how many players they have out on loan?!!!!

What's that all about? Chelsea aren't they!?

5 keepers, 14 defenders, 15 midfielders and 8 strikers. Almost 4 starting 11's out on loan there lol

 

[Wat Tyler]

How many of the 4,000 available have we brought?

 

[PeregrineT]

You absolutely cannot sit Gueye and Schneiderlin in this. Its a fantasy that we have good enough DMs without them. You need at least one of them. Besic is NOT on the same level. I think you have to play DCL up top, hes just been better than Sandro, and play one less DM and pair him with Rooney. I think you need to bring in either Vlasic or Lookman on one of the sides., then you have Siggy and Klaassen as the other two attackers for a total of 5.

But I bet its Rooney up top, with Siggy on the left, Klaassen in the middle, and DCL on the right. With two DMs.

Maybe we should have inquired about those strikers.

Wouldn't mind seeing Klaassen play in this one, as he's perhaps more comfortable in this stage playing in the Europa. He was class for Ajax in this event. Even if he plays deeper, I could see SChneids getting a mental breather here. How about something like this:

Kenny/Jags/Keane/Baines
Klaassen/Gana
Lookman/Rooney/Iceland
DCL

Kenny probably has no shot, don't know if he travelled, but this could be a good one to play him. If not him, I wouldn't mind seeing Holgate there although he's not a true RB

[Osamabindiesel]

Start Mo for a little Bosnian Roulette.

 

[KaiserEFC]

Wonder what ridiculous set up will we go with today? 2-8-1 would be my guess

21/10 to win we are on 365, theyre not even at home as well, good odds them might have a little punt
