So here we go again.. Everton at home, who are missing some of their best players through injury. If ever there was a game to be positive and get on the front foot, it's today. Taking all that into consideration I can see us going 5 at the back <laugh>.

Darlow

Murphy
Schar
Fernandez
Clark
Lewis

Hayden
Hendrick
Almiron

Wilson
Saint Maximin

This is more or less what I would go for but possibly swap Hendrick for longstaff if fit.

I think Bruce will go with that but let's be honest we really need to get our best players on the pitch in their natural positions. 4231 with the front four being Fraser Almiron Max

This never ceases to amaze me. I fail to understand why so many managers, not just Brucie, will shoehorn the supposedly better players into the team but out of position. The old “round pegs square holes” routine.

Just play players in their natural position and promote the replacement if the first choice isn’t available. Is it really that hard?

What amazes me even more is that he's wasting time playing the 'pegs in holes' game when he should be sorting out tactics and player selection. No wonder we are struggling.
 
In fairness to Lascelles, he did do ok last weekend. I think he is better with Schar n Fede beside him. I can't help but think we should be going for this today. Is 5 at the back really necessary?
