Match Thread Everton 2-0 Brighton. Sun Aug 24th. 2pm

[jazzy]

Whose playing left back?

Garner I guess

 

[preposterousvelios]

Very happy to see Grealish and Barry start but Garner at left back again is disappointing

 

[knowing your history]

Bit more on the bench aswell. Think we'll see all of McNeill, Alcaraz and Beto from hour onwards.

Welbeck back upfront for Brighton.

 

[DOMNOLAN]

Shocking lineup. Gutted Aznou isn’t playing.

 

[Mikey_Fitzgerald]

guess Aznou isn’t healthy enough for a full 90?

 

[coollino]

How can it be the same as last time when there are different players?

 

[maccavennie]

GK: Pickford
RB: O’Brien
LB: Garner
CB: Tarkowski
CB: Keane
CM: Iroegbunam
CM: Gueye
AM: Dewsbury-Hall
RW: Ndiaye
LW: Grealish
ST: Barry

KDH needs to do far better than he did against Leeds if hes the furthest midfielder forward. Didn't get into the game at all until he was pushed further back 2nd half.

Beto can have no complaints about losing his spot, let's see if Barry can take this early chance given to him.

RW: Ndiaye
LW: Grealish
ST: Barry

Shocked at Garner staying in at left back honestly. McNeil would be a better option.

Aznou on the bench so hopefully he’s fit enough to play second half when it inevitably doesn’t work.

GK: Pickford

CB: Tarkowski

CM: Iroegbunam
CM: Gueye
AM: Dewsbury-Hall
RW: Ndiaye
LW: Grealish
ST: Barry

He's throwing our 2nd game.

 

[knowing your history]

Brighton gone 4-3-3 by looks of it. All of Baleba, Ayari and O'Riley in central midfield so they clearly feel that is the weak link to exploit.

 

[Bebeto]

Whose playing left back?

It seems same as last week...garner...

 

[jazzy]

How the hell does Tim get another game? I know we are short but I'd rather see McNeil / Alcaraz at 10 and drop KDH deeper or even start Armstrong ahead of him.

 

[Victus]

Best we have got with injuries.

 

[Shevin Keedy]

Remaining calm, positive and hopeful. Going for a 2-0 win.

This could easily change once the team news drops though!.

Well I'm sressed (hyperventilating), negative and doubtfull. But I agree, probably a toffees 2-0 win on the cards.

 

[HalfTimeSayers]

Surprised with Barry starting to be honest that’s really unlike Moyes. He must not fancy Beto at all

Beto’s effort and application and ability was abysmal last game. That’s what a squad results in. Bad game = bench
