Match Thread Leicester City v Everton - Preview, Report and MotM Poll

[Saaby]

Their midfield will overrun us. Our midfield options are very weak

 

[Toffee in Jandals]

Would love to be positive, but after Tuesday it feels like any sort of momentum we may have gained from the Fulham result has now been lost. 3-1 Leicester.

Hope he goes with Bernard, Richarlison and Walcott up front. I like Cenk but I think he is the type of striker that Maguire can keep quiet all day as he’ll out ‘grock’ him. Get someone running at maguire with tricks and pace and we’ll get some reward/pen I reckon.

 

[blue61]

We'll need at least 3 to win after the obligatory Vardy behind the defence goal, and a Maguire set piece header.

 

[CahillsCornerFlag]

Vardy and Maddison both nailed on the score here.

5-2 to Everton.

 

[ToffeeLee1878]

If West Ham win tonight they go above us. Embarrassing. To think our opening fixtures were considered lenient, we haven't half blown it. West Ham going above us after losing the first four.

As it stands a win today and we go 5 clear of them

As it stands a win today and we go 5 clear of them

It's a must win for me this. Eventually Bournemouth and Watford will tail off and we need to start capitalising.

Pick
Kenny Zouma Keane digne
Davies gana
Walcott siggy bernard
Rico

Lookman tosun on the bench to come on at 70mins when we are 2 - 1 up and mola to slot for 3-1

I like the look of that team.
If we can get Gomes and Seamus fit and play them instead of Davies and JJK, we will be on a winner.

For those with IPTV....bein sports HD1 and TSN 4 for the match

I can't see anything to indicate that we can beat Leicester today. They have four wins out of seven, we have two. They have attack minded players who will put the fear of God into our central defence. They seem to care about winning while our players have a passing interest.

This is my concern. Our midfield are easily dominated and do not offer adequate cover when our full backs go forward. Think we will get at them a few times but think Leicester will get at our defence at will. Hope I am wrong but Davies and Gana will have to be covering and more precise with passing or they will drop us in it. I have no fears with Gana defensively but Davies is easily bypassed with a drop of a shoulder

Just getting ready to head out. Sitting amongst the homes fans as this is my home town. Hoping we don't get a hammering as since they won the league my mates been hammering me. It's proper p1ssing it down also not sure if that helps us or hinders us. Anyways coyb
