Match Thread Everton v Stoke City . Saturday 12/08/2017. 15.00

[Baines' left foot]

I could do a better job than Koeman!! What are you thinking ginger man?!? You are literally like the worst ever.

 

[bluekangaroo]

Stoke on paper look miles better. Sad state of affairs!

 

[navidson]

Certainly attack minded, can't argue with that...unless we concede shed loads that is!

5 at the back with 2 DM's

How very gung-ho

 

[Mickey]

Can see Keane being right back. Guess Ron doesn't expect us to do much defending but plays Morgs and Gana?. Weird line-up, the proof in the pudding............

 

[Osamabindiesel]

LMAO he really wants to force Rooney and Klassen for some reason. What a bizarre team

 

[TheBigIguana]

Tricky front 3 that

Definitely 442

 

[kenada_blue]

I guess this is what you get for £7mill net spend....

 

[AdaBrummieblue]

Fewmin yet? Oh yeah. Of course you are. We're gonna melt this lot and you'll all have to apologise to Ronny later.

 

[swanified]

Surely Davies is a better option to play at RWB than DCL if we don't want to play a RB there?

 

[ToffeeTownMilto]

Stoke are looking pretty narrow up front. So might make sense putting DCL there... their fallbacks arent going to get forward

 

[Aqui1a]

I just can't get my head around this...?

 

[eurosrees]

What a randomly weird line up, I don't think he knows what formation to play with these players he's bought, sigurdsson won't help much with that either, looks like a Martinez side.

 

[dinverro]

RK did say he wanted to go 3 at back when facing 4-4-2 last season. Still confused at DCL right wing back but lets see what happens before moaning! COYB

 

[Deleted member 28206]

We don't have a right back lads, chill out.

 

[Steve Holt]

Just put 20 quid on Stoke after seeing that team.
