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

[Saint Domingo]

Actually interested to see how we look with Alcaraz behind Beto again away from home. Dibling given a run as well. Hopefully he’s on the right and McNeil is on the left.

Even Arsenal would struggle if they lost , arguably their 5 best players.

Branthwaite
Gana
KDH
Grealish
N'dayie

would be a huge loss for any team especially one like ours with a squad low on numbers and quality.

Grealish has a virus. Be back for Forest I reckon

Never heard a hangover called that before

[BlueStevie35]

Yes, yes it does

Explain your workings

What's the point in having both Welch and Campbell on the bench, everyone knows they have no future at the club.

Is sitting on our bench really doing anything to put them in the shop window?

Would much rather have given Braiden a seat, at least he'd give us an option.

 

[Littlesue]

Grealish has a virus. Be back for Forest I reckon

Must have caught it at that Xmas party he hosted in London over Xmas

Dwight contends for Everton MOM today, having already conquered your own mom.

 

[Saint Domingo]

Our attack does not fill me with confidence

That attack is still miles better than the Docuoure Harrison Lindstrom days.

 

[HalfTimeSayers]

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

Let's hope Tyler takes his chance.

We are playing 19th place Burnley. Who have a few out/AFCON as well. They have won 3 games out of 17.

Not that it affects the result, but at some point we will have to come to terms with the fact that we aren’t the worst team in the world.

 

[AndyP94]

The rumour is that he is sick

Sick of Barry and Mykolenko

 

[Paul Rideout]

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.

If we lose I expect Moyes to lay the blame on Alcaraz, Dibling and (I’m almost certain this is why he’s starting) Beto

So what you’re saying is, ‘time for Everton’ ?

Least McNeil should play a bit better on the left.
