Match Thread FA Cup, Hull City v Everton - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[Eggs]

If Dobbin can't get a start in this game, when will he ?‍

….I can only think he’s refused to sign a new contract.

2 man midfield... again.

Rondon... again.

5 at the back vs Hull City... again.

Those 2 are Gomes and Allan, no legs whatsoever, Doucoure on the bench

 

[Zezti]

He keeps making the same mistakes, playing Coleman and 2 in the middle. And rondon should be sold this window.

I'm pretty confident in saying I fully expect Rondon to see out his contract here, as long as FSW is at the helm at least.

 

[Runub]

Trying to get the sack at this point surely.

Would appear so. Looked frazzled at the presser yesterday. Maybe he has actually lost it

 

[JobForTheMoyes]

So is it fullbacks and wingers again? And pretty sure this didn’t work in the slightest last week. Then add Coleman in at centre back.

He’s after a pay off isn’t he. He must be wondering what he has to do to get one so is just becoming more ludicrous by the week.

Nah, he’s just picking his team after his daily Zoom consultation call with Kenny Dalglish!

 

[NilSatisOptimum]

BBC 1, so the whole nation can see the only upset of the weekend

It's regional so might switch BBC1 Wales and watch Swansea tie if Benny goes all punt ball... As have some connections with the SFC coaching side of things these days...

 

[Nymzee]

No DCL, hope he’s not out for a while

We knew he wasn't playing.

 

[Marius57]

Any of his fans coming to defend that selection?

 

[BrendanGOT]

What a depressing line up bar Myko but looking at the bench there isn't much choice although I would have started Dobbin over Wrong'on and Gblammo over Slowmes

None of us have even seen Myko play yet? Whys he the bright spot? He could be crap and prob will be if that line up is correct with wingback and wingers, they'll all be on top of eachother like Brighton

 

[billyblue80]

Jesus H Christ! Five at the back versus Hull! What about Brighton in the first half convinced him to stick to that dross system?

 

[Clarky cat]

'kin Tosun is a waste ... why ahead of Simms I don't understand. I really never get the mentality nowadays of NOT playing hungry young academy graduates when the established professionals have had such a lot of opportunities

Tosun has also stated he wont move until the summer so he won’t lose any wages. Should be stuck in the u23s and never in a squad again, especially not at the expense of a youngster who might have a future!

 

[mikel_88]

5 at the back against championship relegation scrappers.

It was a free hit tonight really to play onyango, Dobbin/simms, patterson etc and actually playing a more progressive formation.

Instead he has heaped pressure on himself by going ultra defensive and rotating keepers.

This is exactly it sets the tone for the fans seeing a team like that. Has refused to xhange again what reaction did he think the fans would have to this lineup he has put out

 

[DanB90]

Back 3,4 or 5, don’t care. If the players do their jobs we should win. If they don’t then it could be Brighton mark 2.

If the manager does his job, he shouldn’t be shoehorning 5 defenders onto the pitch against Hull pissing tigers.

I use the term “defenders” loosely in a few instances.

 

[Toffeelover]

This is going to be painful. Even worse that the whole country gets to watch how embarrassingly bad we are. Good luck to the new fella though. I hope he is a shining light in a game i already have little hope for. Please prove me wrong Everton. Just win a game comfortably please.

Is it broadcast globally as well?

 

[AsiaAsia82]

I feel sorry for the fans that have travelled
