Match Thread Everton 2-0 Fulham. Sat 8th November. 3pm.

Think Moyes will really shake things up for this game

Beto in for Barry and two keepers on the bench

What good will that do us ?

1-1 written all over it

My first game at Goodison was a 1-1 draw back in 1976, my last game was the 1-1 draw with West Ham last season. This is my first game at the new ground so this is nailed on

Following abject second half at Sunderland we need to react positively this weekend to overcome Fulham.
First and foremost stick with Barry. We need to bolster his confidence. Give him a decent run of 5/6 games.

If fit, keep Ndiaye right and Grealish left.

Sit Rohl and Charly behind with KDH behind them.

Jimmy to RB and Jake replacing Tarks.

Shake it up and add more solidity to the middle of the pitch.

Garner will get forward and Rohl and Charly will improve the pace of the game.

I think the above changes things and gives us a different dimension. If changes/subs required go for it using Dibbling and shifting Ndiaye or Grealish central.

The Status Quo will only end up with us heading down down towards the danger zone.

Not going to happen I know but he needs to shake it up

Great choice that been saying it for weeks stick Ndiaye upfront.

….arguably the most in-form winger in the PL, can’t understand the suggestion at all.

More of goal threat than our No 9s. Personally would stick with Barry, he has something. However, we have David Moyes who likes players 24+ and finished article.

3 points no problem. Beto and Barry to bedazzle us blues with both their brace of blammos.

…..I’d be sure he’ll score more goals from out wide than as a CF.

I have no doubt Moyes would love Barry and Dibling to show any type of form regardless of age. I just don’t understand how posters think otherwise. Their performances have been disappointing. There was a glimmer of hope with Barry on Monday regardless of that unbelievable miss.

I’d guess Barry starts on Saturday but it really is up to him to earn that starting place. We can blame Moyes for sanctioning the transfers but not for how disappointing Barry, Dibling & Aznou have been.

Worth ago though, our best goalscorer , being upfront and allowed to roam, not worry about tracking back as much, more energy for the final third etc , might work might not, as it stands can't be watching Barry or Beto again at the moment.

He would be poor upfront, like when we tried Gray there a few seasons ago. He’d end up dropping too deep.

….sorry, I think it’s a crazy idea.

Is Alcaraz's name going to be shouted out like at Sunderland but in a obviously more noisy and demanding way? If so, i'll be watching for a Moyes reaction.

Just putting it out there but normally around this time of the year we win a home game quite comfortably

2024 - beat wolves 4-0
2023 - beat Bournemouth 3-0
2022 - beat Palace 3-0
2021 - beat Burnley 3-1
2020 - beat West Brom 5-2
2019 - beat West Ham 2-0
2018 - beat Fulham 3-0

Repeat of 2018 on the cards then?
