My team - Barnes-----------------Isak------------------Murphy ------Willock-------Bruno-------Longstaff--------- Hall-----------Burn----------Schar-----------Trippier/Krafth ---------------------------Dubz---------------------- We could really use tripps back. With tripps back it's not so bad. No point in expecting Longstaff not to start, I'd still play Willock for his pace in midfield. Part of me wants to start Anderson but too many changes in e line up isn't good. Hall and Barnes on the left side could be exposed defensively. This is why we need Willock there. I think a lot of the subs we made were partially due to having 3 games in 3 games, 3 games in 7 days. This will be difficult. Everton can be a difficult nut to crack. Could end up being a draw, but Since everton struggle to score, I'll go for a 2-0/2-1. Everton have one of the ****test attacks and haven't won in about 12pl games, so we need to be attacking this team with everything before two really hard games in fulham and spurs. Prediction - 2-1 - Beto, Isak, Barnes.
Got to be the worst set of officials this season Hope I'm wrong though Referee: Tony Harrington. (Monkey hanger) Assistants: Scott Ledger, Sian Massey-Ellis. Fourth official: Anthony Taylor. VAR: Michael Salisbury. Assistant VAR: Natalie Aspinall.
I actually think you've got the team spot on unless Livramento is available. Gordon really let everyone down with his daft second yellow he'll be a huge miss.
We only have 2 CB's now so no choice really. We just gotta pray no injuries to burn or schar. Thankfully this will force Eddie to finally play actually fullbacks at fullback, so finally the likes of Hall and Livra will get a proper chance we'll see how good they actually are. If Hall plays as well as he did against West Ham going forward we should look into buying him definitely. Heard he will cost 28m.
Longstaff i 100% starting so it doesn't matter what we say. If Anderson plays I'd assume it would be LCM, so that would mean Hall, Barnes and Anderson on he left, which may disrupt us defensively on that left hand side a bit, having 3 young, newish players to the starting 11. I think Willock was brought off because of the quick turn around in games. I think many of the subs were due to fixture congestion.
Longstaff needs dropping he doesn't even look like a professional player. He's fumbling around like a bloke that's won a raffle to play. He stands out like a sore thumb.
He’s only played once and that was against Chelsea. I’d play him ahead of Burn. Problem with that is that we then get Burn at left back which I also don’t want.
