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

[Mozza1987]

I would go either:

Pickford
Kenny Keane (if fit) Holgate Baines
Gana
Vlasic Davies Siggy
DCL Niasse

Pickford
Kenny Keane (if fit) Holgate Baines
Gana
Lookman Davies Vlasic
Siggy
DCL
​

Doubt Koeman will play anything like these though.

 

[Saint Domingo]

If someone had said 6 months ago that we'd be crying out for a Niasse DCL strike partnership because it would be a BETTER option than what we had upfront no one would have renewed their season ticket. Everton for you.

 

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

1-1, Niasse to come off the bench again and save his tormentors arse.

 

[LEONARD]

If we go behind to an early goal, it could turn really nasty.

 

[Professor Toffee]

It's more the players I don't want selected than those I do
Jesus!

 

[Tennessee Blue Mike]

1-1, Niasse to come off the bench again and save his tormentors arse.

My thinking exactly. Unless Koeman finally starts this week with one holding midfielder and two upfront. Bring some positivity into the lineup Ronald.

I’ll hand deliver a hot turd to Koeman if we lose this and I’ll live stream it

 

[Professor Toffee]

First game of the season im over for and available to play if Keane doesn't make it. I know where row Z is, take note Ashley

Hope he's sitting in it!

 

[Eggs]

...Lawrenson reckons we'll win. Kiss of death.

 

[ijjysmith]

I’d make Keane play through the pain barrier. Stick him on Wood throughout and leave that to him.

 

[Osamabindiesel]

Somebody be optimistic for me because all I can predict is a massive torrent of pain and suffering this Sunday. Even my magic 8 ball said "outcome not good"

 

[Paul w]

It's a new day,it's a new match,I can feel it,4v0.

 

[Zezti]

Pickford
Kenny - Keane(if fit)/Schneiderlin - Jags/Schneiderlin - Baines
Gana
Davies - Sigurdsson - Vlasic
DCL - Niasse




And just for fun; if we miraculously had everyone fully fit:

Pickford
Coleman - Keane - Jags - Baines
Gana
Bolasie - Sigurdsson - Vlasic
Barkley
DCL

(that's such a better team)​

 

[Albro]

What Id pick:
Pickford
JJK Keane (Holgate) Schneiderlin Baines
Gueye Klaassen
Vlasic Sigurdsson Mirallas

Enter Davies @60, DCL/Rooney or Besic to slow things if in front later stages.

What RK will pick
Pickford
Martina Holgate Williams Baines
Gana Chneiderlin
Klaassen Rooney Sigurdsson
Niasse
