Match Thread Everton v Norwich 15th May KO 15:00

[DualityNSNO]

Shame about Ross not playing, but exciting to see Dowell and the rest starting!

Properly excited about an Everton game for the first time in a while!

 

[DualityNSNO]

Indeed he does.

But he has been no worse than Lukaku.

It would have been a good reward for Rom's indifference since March to relegate him to the bench.

Yeah but play who? Niasse is in jail or something, Mirallas - not a proper forward, U21 forwards - not ready, we don't even have a striker on the bench!

Wait til a new manager comes in mate. Who knows, Mourinho might love him

With this form of McCharty and Clev i simply dont get why he is ignored for almost whole second part of season . If I was him , I would go somwhere to play , because we saw he can play and he never get more then 3 games in row. Maybe he best paint Martines resoning

Hmmmm...... lol

hat tip to Damo - here from today's Graeme Jones wikipedia entry:

Graeme Anthony Jones is an English former professional footballer. He is currently unemployed .

lukaku is lucky cos his back ups are kone and niasse!

Well, that is an excellent point

The lack of a credible alternative is keeping him in the team.

Indeed.

Much as I loved Bobby, it is a sad comment on his reign that we cannot even bench a couldn't be arsed striker who hasn't scored in months because we literally do not have a replacement worthy of the name

Maybe Bobby was the reason Lukaku wasn't arsed and he'll be back to his best today...

One can hope

Well in that case Lukaku should not be starting either.

And to be honest, although Ross has not been playing well, IMO he put in a lot more effort than Rom did during these past awful couple of months.

Problem with that is Roms backup got arrested

That made me laugh out loud for some reason. Everton.

 

[gaino92]

Think unsworth just wanted to give the lads he's worked with all season a reward for playing well? Barkley looked poor for weeks so give dowell a go
