andycap Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 Schar was our motm against Leeds yet I see people picking lascelles in there starting lineups. I'd stick with schar and let lascelles be on the bench. Don't fancy lascelles up against richarlison gray at all penalty waiting to happen. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
toontownman Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 Looking like it will be an unchanged line up from Leeds bar Targett in for Dummett. He won't risk Burn unless the toe injury is completely healed. Hopefully he throws Bruno in as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 Not got a good feeling about this one, I was counting on Dan Burn playing, Lascelles and Shcar would be ok if it was just one of them, but both together, and you can see one of them making a mistake. Really need something from the front three tomorrow, Everton have defended badly all season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 Re the hatred towards us on GOT, from spending a bit of time on there the impression I get is that - for some weird reason - they appear to liken us to Liverpool/the 'red scum'. I see the odd reference to us and Liverpool supposedly being chums or whatever, very strange. I guess the thing us and Liverpool do have in common is that we're both regional 'top dogs' (snarf), which Everton obviously aren't. So a bit of bitterness via that, maybe. Some of the hate is palpable, like. One example from their current pre-match thread: "Couldn't stand these whoppers even before they went all in on sucking off a repressive regime just to get a few dollars stuffed in their G-string. Hope we blast the horse-punching whoppers back into the championship, forever." Then the same guy quoting himself unprompted: "Sorry, just reiterating how much I hate these absolute cretins and how tumescent I am at the thought of slapping them into League One." I cannot fathom being that worked up about a team where there is no tangible rivalry whatsoever beyond sharing a division. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HaydnNUFC Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 I probably dislike Liverpool far more than Everton even though I tend to be indifferent to most clubs aside from on a matchday. Strange cunts. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fernandez, Dummett, Ritchie, and Wilson are injured and Gillespie isn’t needed. Honestly think if Burn is fit, the biggest decision is Lascelles vs. Schär. I know who I’d be picking on ability and form… I think we will see that line up with the exception of the centre defensive pairing. I’m sure Howe mentioned that Burn has a toe infection so that probably means that it’s Lascelles and Schar that stay together with Burn on the bench Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Prophet Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 I understand being content with a draw, should we get one, but I absolutely would not take one pre-match. We need to start winning games and this is a decent opportunity. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s the kind of thing players can take an injection for and use padding with, so seems like they’d be testing that out today to see what the reaction is. Surely a 6’7” Blyth lad on the cusp of making a home debut for his boyhood club isn’t going to be kept out by an infected toe? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

andyc35i Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 I’m just thinking that it is an easy way out with what it is a difficult team selection choice for Eddie between Lascelles, Schar and Burn competing for two places (when Lascelles is captain and Schar having played so well against Leeds). I can see Eddie keeping it the same and then bringing on Burn to help us see out the win Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lush Vlad Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 I’d rather see Willock keep his place somehow or Murphy play instead of Fraser. Need a bit more pace and some kind of attacking threat in the team. Fraser is just all graft and not a lot else. Fully expect him to start, mind. Not massively arsed, either way. It’s not like Obertan or Ryan Taylor keeping HBA out the side. We’re not really spoilt for choice. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
