Match Thread Everton v Manchester United - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

Sig starting makes me think Carlo has dementia. Rather Davies starts.

Been saying that for the past few years yet here we are

Carlo's hands are tied mate, maybe we should have tried Davies there, but he just can't trust him.

 

[Azza]

Ugh Sigurdsson

 

[Brett Angell Delight]

Positives....

Mina Out, Holgate in.
Coleman back.
Bernard ahead of Iwobi.
James back.


How the hell is Siggurdsson in? Probably a toss up between him and Gomes

He’s better than Gomes at the moment. That’s not to say he’s particularly good, Gomes is just appalling.

 

[ToffeeTim]

Good side apart from Bernard

 

[blue to the bone]

Because Gomes is horrendous.

Spot on. Both are not good enough.
But at least siggy might take a shot on goal or attempt a cross

....I think Ancelotti was desperate to split up the Mina/Keane partnership, especially against a team so potent on the break.

Not sure what to make of Gordon’s continued omission, especially given Richarlison’s absence. He could be out of form in training or he’s out of favour with Ancelotti for another reason, but he’ll have his time.

Hoping for the first time in his Everton career, Bernard takes his chance to impress when he's in a league first XI.

Lots of talent in that front line. Delighted to see our first choice back 4. If we play well I think we win.

 

[Lob]

Whats a unsatisfactory poo like?

One of those knobbly ones that you can feel punching the sides of your ring piece while exiting?

 

[kenada_blue]

Because Gomes is horrendous.

Siggurdson hasn't been ripping up trees either.

 

[RomanReigns]

Man Utd fans not happy with their starting line up

 

[samcdavies94]

Would have had Gordon in the squad for one of the CBs, but think Bernard is the right choice. Was great against these in the 4-0 win 18 months ago... hopefully he replicates that today.

 

[Bullens Rd]

Well I'm going for the 24th minute for United's first penalty.

 

[Nymzee]

Spot on. Both are not good enough.
But at least siggy might take a shot on goal or attempt a cross

Problem is he doesn’t these days.

 

[Rooney_Tunes]

It's a difficult one . Gomes hasn't been great has he ?

I'm sorry but I truely hate Sigurdson

I know that a horrible thing to type but he is an absolute garbage and a coward to boot..
