Match Thread AFC Bournemouth v Everton - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[jceverton]

Not like 3rd spot is up for grabs like.

 

[Connor]

Yep

'Sake

Was hoping that one was wrong

 

[evertonarntwe]

Dcl man. No wonder he don't win many away games

 

[Terrence Phelan]

Gomes injury aside, I guess the only thinking must be "get Kean on after an hour and grab the win".

That's not the thinking of a top manager.

It might work though as Bournemouth are very poor. However it's a given that Solanke will score a few, so probably best to wave goodbye to points already!

 

[Darth Toffeeman]

Mis-firing centre forward and a one paced central midfield unit, shows we are very much in that bunch of teams on 7-8 points.

A very difficult task to take 3 today with Gomes and Gbamin missing.

 

[Deulofeumygod]

Gonna get overrun in midfield.

 

[GrandOldTeam]

Gomes is injury prone, has been throughout his career.

Same with Delph, not ideal to have both first choice centre midfielders so susceptible to injuries.

 

[Hickson9]

Well if we don't score today and don't look a threat up top that's all on Silva that selection.

Here's hoping Lewin grabs a goal and gives the centre backs a game.

Good to prepare the overreaction beforehand.

Kean played internationals and cant start every match for us and Gomes injured.

What would you do differently?

 

[john jako]

It’s the same team as they leaked on Thursday haha. Never change everton.

 

[Dario Terracotta]

Guessing Gomes injured?

Bournemouth 2-1

How many training ground injuries do we pick up?It's mad.

 

[toffeejack]

Hmm, I'd be shocked if this isn't 0-0 at half time. Why have we had so many injuries and suspensions in centre mid when we thought we were overstocked there. Good job we are overstocked now.

lollollollollollol Thanks mate, the bottom sentence killed me.

 

[Billy Dean]

Lewis Cook first goal scorer. Nailed on.

Solanke mate

 

[john jako]

Which one?

It’s cryptic. I’ll tell you after the game

 

[GrandOldTeam]

The hosts have a massive injury list.

Charlie Daniels, David Brooks, Simon Francis, Dan Gosling, Arnaut Groeneveld, Lloyd Kelly and Junior Stanislas will all miss out whereas Lewis Cook, Chris Mepham and Adam Smith are doubtful.

Everton will be without Jean-Philippe Gbamin and Jonas Lossl. (And now, Gomes...)
