Match Thread Leeds 1-0 Everton, Mon 18 Aug, 8.00pm

[Hafnia Blue]

We got this lads, these are shiz

We are Shiz lite so might just shade it.

 

[Yarrgh]

Id go with (assuming Myko is fit):

Pickford
O'Brien, Tarkowski, Keane, Mykolenko
Garner__________Gana
Dewsbury-Hall
Ndiaye__________Grealish
Beto​

I think this is about right. Plus we have Barry, McNeil and Charly to freshen it up front. I presume we have Patterson and Aznou if we need to rearrange at the back.

We should have enough to take care of Leeds.

COYB!

I like your optimism but their pace upfront will put the frighteners on our aging center backs.

No BBC Merseyside? Bizarre. What is the reason behind that?

I'm guessing it is a broadcasting licence issue re weekday games. Back in the bad old days of city radio, they would alternate between the FM broadcast and the MW broadcast where our game was at the same time as the rs game.

Sadly I can only see live updates becoming more scarce as the creep of corporate america further blights what was once our game.

Can't see us winning if Keane is starting.

It's fine, DCL will get injured in the first five minutes and then they have no chance of scoring.

The business we have done looks to be good but not nearly enough, It's absolutely wild that we're probably going to start a season again with Michael Keane playing and no right hand side. Think we'll beat these two nil, Tarks and Beto, utft.

Im not a keane fan, but we won at Fulham & Newcastle with him there

 

[Davycc]

1-1 written all over it.

 

[BigBeto1]

Going to be some serious headloss in here when Grealish is on the bench and Alcaraz starts

 

[GoldenToffee]

My thoughts on this have been changing like the wind the last few days.

I believe Leeds will come out all guns blazing and be given free reign by the referee to kick the chite out of our players. I'm foreseeing loads of early Leeds fouls let go by the referee, before he lays down the law with an Everton yellow card for a nothing tackle.

Anyway—either score an early goal to punch through the atmosphere, or ride out the initial hysteria and start to control the game.

Regardless of our line up we'll still have the better set of players, but let's see if we have understood that the football has to go into the net yet.

I think Grealish bench and Charly on the right

Mad to see we are still using the same defence as last year.
