Match Thread Everton v Tottenham Hotspur - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[h8kurdt]

It is what it is. Important thing is for the crowd to get behind them.

Fat chance of that I suspect.

 

[Rooney_Tunes]

On the bright side, Davies, Gbamin, and Rondon are not starting.

And Iwobi; jesus we have some rubbish on our books.

 

[Runub]

Any defence with Dier in it you have a chance

 

[LeeCarsley]

warra lineup. 5-0 to the bloooos

 

[Nymzee]

No Rondon?

On the bench.

 

[BlueToff]

I think that'll adapt to having Gray as a pseudo-10 in a 4-5-1 or 4-4-1-1 looking at it, so in practice it is three in midfield with Delph/Allan holding.

Gray has been playing that role every game mate, and it doesn't work. Completely takes away from what he's good at (Man Utd match aside, maybe we'll play it like that, but the key is Doucoure's power to get around) and leaves us outnumbered.

I can only think it'll be Townsend dropping into the middle like he did v Wolves.

 

[Mosh Pit]

Happy with that team, other than the centre back pairing...

That's two centre halves who are super low on confidence, playing together.

When they both played a few weeks ago they were dreadful.

Would have put Holgate in there but, hopefully they turn a new leaf today.

COYB!

 

[Nymzee]

Who the hell is Skipp for Spurs?

Good player.

 

[Billy Dean]

Who the hell is Skipp for Spurs?

20-21 year-old sitting midfielder. Looks a decent player.

 

[Milkman]

Who the hell is Skipp for Spurs?

Crab midfielder from their academy, will never amount to much in top tier football, except for that time he scored two screamers away at Everton.

 

[Barca Blue]

Who the hell is Skipp for Spurs?

The bush kangaroo

 

[BlueToff]

Which midfielder would you play instead?

Davies or Gbamin because they are actual midfielders.

It's the numbers that matter. Our manager is stuck using a 4-4-1-1 system that went out of vogue in 2009, weirdly when he did.

 

[RomanReigns]

Spurs playing 5 at the back?

 

[edge]

Not a chance, he’ll have gordon left, Townsend right and Gray and Richarlison up top

Delph, who has played 45 minutes in a year, will get absolutely trumpeted everywhere

If its just Delph and Allan ,in the middle we will get walked through need Townshend in there as well.

 

[Milkman]

Let's agree to disagree on that one.
