Romey 1878 Posted February 22 Report Share Posted February 22 The home side hasn’t won any of the last six Premier League meetings between Brighton and Everton (D2 L4), since a 4-2 victory for the Toffees at Goodison Park in October 2020. Nine of Brighton’s 10 Premier League wins this season have seen them score at least three goals. They have drawn five and lost four of their nine games when scoring only once in Premier League games this term. Everton have failed to win any of their last eight Premier League games (D4 L4) – the longest ongoing winless run in the division – having won six of their previous eight games before this run (D1 L1). Only Arsenal (11) have scored more goals from corners than Everton (10) in the Premier League this season. Excluding penalties, 52% of the Toffees overall goals have come from set pieces (14/27), the highest share in the competition this term. Brighton’s Pascal Gross has been involved in 10 goals in his last 13 Premier League games (2 goals, 8 assists), including four involvements in his last three appearances. His nine assists overall this term is the most by a Brighton player in a single Premier League campaign, while the last German player to reach double figures in a season was Leroy Sane in 2018-19 (10 assists).

RuffRob Posted February 24 Report Share Posted February 24 let's hope McNeil discovers close to the form he attained lat Brighton ast year. Brighton are good at their place, and I am sure they will not fall into the same trap as they did last time we visited. I feel it could be a tough afternoon on the south coast. I would settle for something like a 2-2 draw with a DCL brace. as long as we come away with a couple of positives, to take us in to the next few games.

Btay Posted February 24 Report Share Posted February 24 Surely Young does not start this one, for the love of god please. Brighton haven’t been as good as they have been the last few seasons, we can definitely get something from this game.

I actually agree, Gana hasn't done anything to warrant being dropped. I was tempted to put Gana in over Garner as i though Garner was quite poor against Palace. I would not be upset with a midfield of Onana & Gana as long as they get stuck in, win the ball back & move it quickly. As you mentioned we have to knock them off their rhythm, any midfield option we pick will be pointless if we are trying to knick the ball and counter with Ashley Young on the wing. It's been our strength all season but set pieces will be pivotal for us in this one & our most likely source of getting goals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
London Blue Posted February 24 Report Share Posted February 24 Garner has consistently been our best midfielder this season. Dropping him would be a mistake. Matt 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RuffRob Posted February 24 Report Share Posted February 24 Onanna will be disappointed, he does and can make a difference off the bench - lets face it is pretty slim picking for a player to make much impact otherwise. COYB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
