Match Thread Everton v Atalanta BC

[Groucho]

Those who go to matches to fight aren’t supporters.

They’re mindless scrotes who use football as a mask for idiotic violence.

70’s, 80’s or today, all pathetic.

The 90s were just being plain weird.

I’d like to see Sandro get a full game.

Let’s see what he’s about.

Yep and klassen and another couple lads. Its important they get their opportunities in their favoured positions as well. Jow anyone can judge sandro yet is beyond me. He hasnt got game time for anyone to judge whether he is capable or not.

Why not.

This match has all the appeal of a zenith data systems - northern group game on a wet Tuesday night... And probably an attendance to match..

 

[Jeff Jones]

I want us to salvage some pride. Losing to these at Goodison in front of what I expect to be a small crowd will be hard to take.

BTW, How could you tell who was winning the fight? Somebody was, but the only ones I recognised were the police. They
were doing alright, but I don't know who the others were.

Sandro and Klaasen will probably both benefit from a first team appearance.

But you can hardly judge them in a makeshift team playing in a game of no consequence.

Can either play at left back?

Pride goes without saying but I’m viewing this as a chance to see some of the guys.

It's a game of little importance to either side. Atalanta have little to play for tonight.

And Everton have three much more important Premier League games coming up in the next fortnight.

Give the first team squad a rest!

I haven't been less bothered about a game for many years. Sake Everton.

They're still playing for top spot aren't they? I'd expect them to be bang up for it

Robles

Kenny - Keane - Williams - Martina

Baningime

Lennon - Klaassen - Rooney - Vlasic

Sandro​

In Unsy's system i'd accept something like that, considering it's a throw away game i'd even give Feeney a game but that Petagna run us ragid last time and he's a big lad so probably not ideal for a young lad making his debut against a target man type.

Could see Davies starting with him being banned in the league but Baningime is a must for this game sitting behind the other 2 and Klaassen needs some game time. Rooney hasn't been seen for a few so can't imagine him not playing so unless he's kept for the league game and Davies in for this i'd expect to see Rooney. Wouldn't be surprised to see Lookman start but Vlasic is better in every way imaginable from the start so hoping Unsy gives him a chance.

Sandro or DCL not too fussed, think we know what DCL will offer and how limited he is in terms of finishing so it's worth a run out for Sandro to see what he offers before the weekend.

The ones doing all the damage were in hi-viz jackets (ie, bouncers). Atalanta came off a very poor second.

Meh

My guess is Unsworth will put the Everton Pre School team out. I’d rather see Sandro and Klaasen etc.
