Match Thread Everton v Lincoln City, FA Cup, Preview, Report & MotM Poll

[DanEFC92]

Still not got tickets for this. In two minds as to whether to bother.

 

[Blue Juice]

Would love an absolute cake walk to 5-0
Fully expecting an insipid performance devoid of character and enjoyment.
EEEEEEEEEEVERTON

 

[Jamo Martinez]

Just win ffs.

 

[messymascot]

Pickford
Kenny Mina Zouma Baines
Gueye Sigurdsson Davies
Lookman Richarlison Bernard

That would be my team.

I would go with that and as soon as its wrapped up bring Gueye, Sigurdsson and Richarlison off.

Wish I was going, got work unfortunately. My little lad is going with his nephew (his first game tomorrow) and where he lives he's the only Evertonian so Everton better put on a bloody good show!!!

So back and forth with giving Baines the start on this. What's Lincoln's right flank look like?

Hard to argue with Baines in a

Hard to argue with Baines in the armband though. DCL to come on later as well.

I dont think Silva will take any chances, he'll name a strong team.

Since the Cup defeat to Southampton i lost all confidence in Silva, I still remember him saying he rotated the team and rested the goalkeeper because that's what other managers do !!! ???.. Genius !...even though we weren't involved in Europe like the other managers were , this told me a lot about this copycat wannabe. The only thing that has impressed me so far was his decision to man mark Jorginho against Chelsea which resulted in other teams doing the same , since then ?...nothing , and the football gets more dismal by the game.

I'd go with:

Pickford
Kenny - Jags - Mina -Baines
McCarthy - Davies
Walcott - Bernard - Lookman
Tosun

Experience and give some a rest. Surely enough to beat Lincoln....

I dont think Silva will take any chances, he'll name a strong team.

At today's press conference he said:

It’s about desire and our ambition and what is important for us and our fans.

They want to see our club doing a fantastic run in the FA Cup. It is the same ambition for us as well.

We will play with one XI with 100% conditions to win the match and play the next round of the FA Cup.

I hope that translates as he is going to be pay a strong team but you what he constitutes as a 'strong team' versus Lincol could be down to perspective.

It sounds like utter bubbles to me

Yeah his press conference was after my post.

Given our run of results/Silva facing increasingly scrutiny and the criticism he faced after devaluing the league cup, I'd be very surprised to see us field a weakened side.

I've already mentioned that I think it should be the strongest team possible bar perhaps one or two changes; still, a five or six changes wouldn't surprise me at all.

Hope they both enjoy it, chief.
