Match Thread Burnley v Everton, Saturday 3rd March 2018

[blue to the bone]

Gettin over run in the middle would be my fear too. They have 3 there that will cover ground. Davies needs to be disciplined

 

[N.S.N.O.]

if this line-up works and tosun scores, it will be weird and hard for sam to find words on press conferance

Wouldn't be hard for him at all.....


Big Sam: "i knew when i first saw Tosun play years ago that i could make him a successful striker in the Premier league. He wasn't ready when he first arrived, because he's been managed poorly at his other clubs. While i waited for him to improve under my management in training, i lowered myself to other systems... But great managers always rise to the top, and i am probably the greatest manager in this clubs history. I know Tosun has been officially credited with the goals today, but really i scored those goals. The cleansheet is also my doing. You're welcome Everton".

We actually have pace going forward with walcott,DCL,Davies pushing forward....not sure how quick Tosun is...

Not that quick but hopefully he can hold the ball for a while and serve the guys running forward.

My only curiosity is how such an attacking line up will play so defensively that we lose the game.

If it don't work he will blame the fans.

Tosan to be subbed deffo!

Burnley have a lot going in their favour today.

Mainly the quality of this Everton squad.

 

[CahillsCornerFlag]

So despondent about us right now that I’m expecting 2-0 Burnley. Please pleasantly surprise me Everton.

Quick enough to sign when he saw the offer....!

No one in midfield that can pass a ball, going to be 90 minutes of aimless hoofs

 

[4737carlin]

Wow, Sammy you little rascal, bet Dyche didn't see this side coming

 

[captainvindaloo]

Another game we should win on paper. If only we could do it on grass. Here's hoping.
COYB!

 

[Woolverhampton_Blue]

Positive lineup away from home for Sam that is. Still feel Siggy is a bit wasted on the wing though.

Problem always will be is players getting on the ball and wanting it, creating things.

We don't have that with Rooney out. So Siggurdson and Walcott have to step up. Sigurdsson won't.
