Btay Posted August 21, 2022 Report Share Posted August 21, 2022 Quick turn around in games. Think we will see quite a few changes here but hopefully a start for Onana and a chance for him to settle a bit. Begovic Coleman Holgate Keane Vinagre Onana Gbamin Allan McNiel Dele Gordon I would imagine Gbamin drop between the centre backs to allow full backs to push on. It’s really hard to pick a line up with what we have at the moment… Matt and Elston Gunnn 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elston Gunnn Posted August 21, 2022 Report Share Posted August 21, 2022 I like everything Btay says above. This will be the 2d of 5 matches in 15 days, the last of which will be Liverpool. Has to be lots and lots of rotation. If we can’t beat a middling League 1 team with rested (so-called) PL players, not much we can say. Yes, a loss would be devastating, but lots of rotation is still the sensible choice, least bad option. Btay 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted August 22, 2022 Report Share Posted August 22, 2022 Looking forward to being able to focus on the league... Romey 1878, Bailey, Shukes and 1 other 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlbanyNYToffee Posted August 22, 2022 Report Share Posted August 22, 2022 Like most of the above but move Gbamin to CB. I’d like to see us stick to one formation for the season and commit to mastering it. Of course it will go wrong sometimes but over the long term every good team does it.

Palfy Posted August 23, 2022 Report Share Posted August 23, 2022 I think Frank will put out a strong team for this in the hope of getting it done before halftime, then we will see mass changes when the jobs done. He will view this as a must win and won’t gamble with a team already low in confidence, to lose this could have far greater repercussions than just going out the cup.

Wall Writer Posted August 23, 2022 Report Share Posted August 23, 2022 I think we could well read into it that if he is not involved today, he's no longer an Everton player. Btw..does anyone know if this is being broadcast anywhere? AlbanyNYToffee 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goodison Glory Posted August 23, 2022 Report Share Posted August 23, 2022 No Allan...even on the bench to come on and get some match fitness. Pleased to see some of the youngsters (providing we still get a result of course!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
