Match Thread Burnley 0-0 Everton. Sat December 27th. 3pm

[Vaughan]

Looks like a proper relegation candidate XI today - hopefully prove me wrong

but a win puts us 7th assuming arsenal do brighton

 

[Davideeyore]

Let's hope Burnley are feeling generous.

 

[Only-Blue-toffees]

At least he’s playing on the left today where he has looked competent, unlike the disastrous experiment of playing him as a right winger.

Probably end up being on the right lol

 

[jazzy]

How weak does our bench look...

Yes losing 5 first teamers does tend to have that effect

 

[blue to the bone]

So true lol. You watch he will end up scoring a worldie now and features more because of it. That’s all he has is a good shot. Surprised Moyes didn’t bin him after the last game he was fuming after every cross he made as they were absolutely woeful every time

Who starts ahead of him today.
With options available.

Bit of a sad lineup that. Always seems to be Christmas week we seem to have multiple players out.

 

[Blue Neon]

Looks like a 3-0 to Everton

Steady now! Steady!

 

[Wat Tyler]

1-0 defeat

 

[Aberblue]

Please God nobody gets injured today.

 

[Davideeyore]

Grealish has a virus. Be back for Forest I reckon

 

[OlDirtyBluenose]

We'll do We'll to get anything out of this with that team and bench.

Let's hope Tyler takes his chance.

 

[Toffeeforme]

Paul Daniels couldn't of done a better job of turning a strong looking team into relegation fodder within a couple of weeks.

 

[Charles Hawtrey]

we're all understandably moaning but we have a 40mil player coming in so not quite the jack harrison days

im backing dibling to play well and rohl to have an impact off the bench

will be 'interesting' to see how we play without grealish, kdh and ndiaye. i imagine we'll be more direct

Perhaps Moyes is looking for a different performance from the trio of Dibling/Alcaraz/McNeil (did not think we would ever see all 3 starting together). What exactly that something else is, I am not sure, perhaps something to do with getting Beto behind the defenderswith passing ??

Will be an interesting day - the Burnley experiment.

 

[BramleyMoore2024]

Think I might turn the phone off with that line up. 0-0 at best, I know that pretty pessimistic.

 

[Swartzy]

Grealish has a virus. Be back for Forest I reckon

I think i would get a Virus looking at those options..
