Ancelotti admits Everton squad hadn't seen him play
Ancelotti also clears up links to Arsenal job and he learns extent of top six away form
"In my personal opinion, to go on the pitch from the bench was not so easy for me. But this is a decision for Andre. If Andre wants to start he is ready to start. But together we will take a decision ... ok he can go on the bench and start the next game.
"He's had one full practice game. But the training has been geared towards the intensity of this game. Maybe he can't play 90 minutes of high intensity - this is normal - but his physical condition is good."

It speaks volumes that Ancelotti of all managers is about to send a player just coming back from a horrific injury onto an away pitch to start. Our options are so bad that Andre is forced into the lineup. Can’t blame Carlo, but Andre wouldn’t be starting if the options weren’t so dire. Hopefully he is up for it and I think he will be
There's no real risk in terms of the injury to him starting.
It wasn't a muscular injury so it's not like he can aggravate it again in that sense. The ligaments etc will all be fully healed.
The 'risk' is purely match fitness and obviously then if you're pushing that it could lead to a muscular injury.
But I guess they've spent the last three-four weeks in training getting him up to that base level of fitness which means he can be dropped in.
It's probably 50/50 atm. I certainly won't be surprised either way - good thing is he's available, one way or the other.

The biggest thing for Andre is the psychological side. 50/50 tackles etc. Then thee is match sharpness but he’s a player we have certainly missed.

Genuinely excited at the prospect of him
Coming back , he’s a special olayer the timing seems perfect and watching him go off if anyone had suggested this I’d think they’d been drinking .
not a chance on this earth your my age

Its ironic that as Gomes returns, Mr Son is out for the season. Karma indeed.
I dont expect everton to win trophies, for me football is simply an entertainment industry, and gomes is exactly the kind of player i love watching
