Match Thread Everton v Burnley KO 14:15 Sunday 1 October

[peteblue]

Niasse said about how good it was to play with Davies, I expected Tom to be playing today tbh.....

 

[Steve Wigan]

Sorry Rooney is not starting,but needs must....Davies will get game time,ans well as Rooney. Rooney will come on for either DCL or Oumar at some point. Interesting line up RK is trying at least, going against his natural philosophy .At least we have pace up front.

 

[hktoffee]

Christ I said he should play DCL and Niasse up top and go 4-4-2 and he's only gone and done it.

Played Ronald for once, respect swallowing your pride and starting Niasse aswell.

We will we win this. No more 3 no.10 with no pace up front.

 

[Tubey]

That's a good line up in theory.

2-0 Everton.

That said, Sigurdsson wide left is a massive X factor. I'd have gone with Lookman but he has to start his record signing golden boy it seems.

 

[faddy the blue]

Looks like an attacking 433

​

Pickford​

Martina Keane Williams Baines

Sideways Backways

Sigurdsson​

DCL Niasse Vlasic
​

Much improved selection. I miss Mirallas though.

 

[Osamabindiesel]

He might play Dominic out wide niasse up front 4-2-3-1 who knows will have to wait and see

I think Siggy and Dom will interchange.

 

[sheedys left foot]

We really have a rubbish side when you see it on paper, regardless of formations.

 

[devogue]

Back to basics 4-4-2. I like it!

 

[penev10]

I'm gathering its this shape?

--------------Niasse---------------
DCL-------------------------Vlasic
------------Sigurdsson------------
-------Schneid------Gana--------

tbf Lou he was dreadful on Thursday but that had more to do with him getting shifted all over the shop.

Good luck to Niasse, I would have had him on the bench and Gylfi just behind CL but at least it looks like some form of change of system

Yep, out on the left, then out on the right. He should be in the middle every time, out of him, Gana and Schneiderlin, Davies is the one who gets us moving forward, gets in the box etc.

 

[devogue]

Im getting some weird ads on this page. Sexy breathable briefs?

 

[Professor Toffee]

what is the point of two DMs considering we always look exposed?

We need another DM

 

[neil999]

C'mon guys he has changed things let's be a bit positive

 

[MACCA75]

Pretty sure we've changed the right back for every single game so far this season. Which must be some sort of record.

 

[Khalekan]

lol lol martina ffs

You want to like the line up....then you see his name in the starting XI and JonJoe not even on the bench.

Plus Schneiderlin and Gana together again at home to a team which will probably park the bus
