Match Thread Everton v West Ham United (Sunday 16th Sept 4.00)

[ToffeeTim]

Sorry but here’s to me playing players in their correct positions.

Weird behaviour

Here's me wanting us to play 11 players on Sunday, even if that means someone a bit out of position, rather than playing with about 9 men.

 

[shafe1878]

Pickford
Holgate zouma digne
Kenny. Baines
Davies. Schneiderlin
Sigurdsson
Niasse. Tosun

Think my bet is looking better and better with all these injuries.

Everton will probably play a reserve team now and win.

 

[blueblue]

If Walcott doesn't make it we could go three at the back and let the wing backs provide speed and width.
It could be
Pickford
Holgate, Jagielka,Zouma
Kenny, Digne
Schneiderlin, Davies
Sigurdsson
Tosun Bernard

 

[Charles Hawtrey]

Maybe Silva will realise this is a 'screwed up game' anyway and try some experimental things like Digne at LW. I think if he tries to keep faith with whats available and plays the likes of Niasse at LW its a recipe for disaster (see last season).
who would have thought after the last 3 seasons that the one thing we have plenty of right now is Left Backs!!

 

[Caolam]

The team sheet could be the most interesting thing about Sunday.

..if the situation is as bad as is being reported, I see Dowell getting a start. If he doesn’t play on Sunday, it’s hard to see him ever getting in the starting X1.

 

[toffeejack]

Two up front?

Our bench could be something like stek, Browning, baines, adeniran, Dowell, Hornby, Evans

With a first XI of.

Pick
Jjk Holgate Zouma digne
Lookman Schneiderlin Davies siggy
tosun niasse​

 

[maccavennie]

Theo isn’t fit.

I thought he had been training all week mate.

 

[Nymzee]

I thought he had been training all week mate.

No still a doubt with his ribs.

 

[Sarnia Kevin]

We have to win this as this has been the easiest/winnable, start to the season in years.

That was last season wasn't it?

Is DCL injured now as well? Wouldn’t shock me.

He did an everton that and came on in the 80th minute on international duty yet still managed to get concussion, so we'll see.

 

[Ghoat]

At this rate we may as well have Unsworth step in for this match, he is the only one that's going to know most of the players names.

In a couple weeks we’re going to be signing Landon Donovan and Bakary Sako on frees just to make up the numbers.
