Match Thread Everton v Salford City, Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[Saint Domingo]

They played together for a few minutes against the likes of Spurs. They are good to go, mate

Would much rather see Bernard and Gordon in those positions than Davies and Sigurdsson. Give Delph some minutes if he’s fit too.

 

[billyblue80]

Be good to see some rotation here. Especially at cb we need to see the backup play.

 

[Bullens Rd]

Pickford
Kenny
Keane
Branthwaite
Nkounkou
Walcott
Gordon
Doucouré
Davies
Bernard
Kean

The bench may possibly be the strongest we've had in recent history - Lössl aside. Not even room for Gomes!

Mina, Rodriguez, Allan, Richarlison, Digne, DCL, Lössl

That is a good shout.

 

[PeregrineT]

Absolutely have to start Kean, Gordon, Nkounkou and probably Kenny. And if Davies and Siggurdson cant produce against them they should be immediately cut.

 

[4737carlin]

Totally different side, no star players, give the fringe a chance to impress Carlo, next weekend I'd start the same 11, give a few the chance to fight for a place, it's what we need.

 

[Bullens Rd]

Pickford
JJK Branthwaite Gibson Nkounkou
Davies Delph
Walcott Siggy Gordon
Kean​

Along those lines but I want a proven central midfielder and a central defender in there. Gibson and Delph out for Keane and Doucouré please.

 

[Toffee in Jandals]

If we cant beat a league 2 side at home with a front 3 of Walcott, Kean & Bernard and a midfield 3 of any of Gordon, Delph, Davies, Glyfi then we dont deserve to be in the thing.

Our squad players are rubbish but they are still a cut above Salford

Agree with you my brother. I can only just imagine the GOT fume if Carlo played Allan/Doucoure/Rodriguez and one of them had his leg destroyed by this bunch of feral part-timers.

 

[TXRick]

3-0 us

 

[carolinablue232]

The Salford docuseries was pretty good I thought. 9-0 Ebeptoh.

 

[No8Bally]

Salford will just try to kick lumps out of everyone. Pub team.

 

[Nymzee]

Got to be playing the bench and youngsters here and if you don’t trust them to beat a League Two side then you sure as hell can’t ever justify playing them in the PL.

 

[CahillsCornerFlag]

I would play :

Lossl
JJK - Gibson - Branthwaite - Niels
Walcott - Davies - Iceland - Bernie
Gordon
Kean​

Spot on this, will be more than enough to beat a division 4 team, and why risk any of the best XI getting injured.

 

[Houghty19]

For me start our strongest team win the game then rest our better players as early as possible in the game. Sick of seeing us play our second string players who get turned over and there goes another trophy we wont be winning this season.

 

[Terrarian]

I would like to win this trophy please Mr Ancelotti
