How embarrassing naming 12

the problem is we could put Muric is goal, play really well, win and keep a clean sheet and I'd be pretty confident that Trafford would still start against Palace

Newcastleclaret93 · Post by **Newcastleclaret93** » Sat Oct 28, 2023 7:54 pm

It’s likely going to be something like

Muric
Vitinho, AD, Delcroix, Taylor
Cork, Cullen
Odobert, Berge, Tresor
Foster

EFL Cup switches to 12 aside for 4th round then for the final it goes to 13 aside and you can name two keepers.

Redmond and Larsen definitely need some game time, with a view to them both starting next Saturday.

warksclaret · Post by **warksclaret** » Sat Oct 28, 2023 8:06 pm

We need to blend in a few players who have had no or little opportunity yet this season and start Muric, Cork, Larson, Redmond, Zarourry, . No merit in playing JBG, Rodriguez, Vitinho as we know they are not up to PL

Muric
O Shea AAD Delcroix Taylor
Brownhill Cork Berge
Larson Redmond Zarourry

Pointless exercise saying “changes for Everton”

Regardless of the recent performances/results there would be changes including starting Muric

The main change would be starting Trafford against Everton and then Muric on Saturday against Palace

Before the usual suspects critise Jay it's worth pointing out BBC sport had him mom in terms of effort.

So
Twelve to start on the pitch instead of the usual eleven
And only six subs instead of the usual nine
And it's Al Dakhil (not El Dakiel) - unless we've signed another winger I have missed

Did he even touch the ball before his injury time disallowed effort?

Trafford (might aswell play him if he’s going to play in league to)
Roberts
Al-dakhil

Taylor

Cullen
Massango
Brownhill

If he had only one touch and it resulted in a goal that would have been a plus.

Hedontplayforyou · Post by **Hedontplayforyou** » Sun Oct 29, 2023 5:29 pm

Muric in goal
2 from Tresor Larsen and Redmond to start to get game time.
Massengo to see what he’s about preferably with Cullen and Berge to see what that looks like.

Wouldn’t risk Beyer or Ekdal if either are coming back to fitness. Egan Riley maybe ?

CoolClaret · Post by **CoolClaret** » Sun Oct 29, 2023 5:43 pm

This is a tough one;

There’s an argument to be made that we need to see what we have in certain positions that we haven’t seen…

And there’s also an argument that we need to find our best XI and pronto.

We’re absolutely begging for a 4-2-3-1 and I would like to see what we have that can play defensive midfield.

CJ and Massengo? Why not - let’s see what we’ve got in there.

Deadly serious - can’t be worse than what we’ve seen in midfield this season.

No idea who’s fit at centre half.

—————---Muric
O’Shea-AAD-Delcroix-Vitinho
———-Massengo—CJ
Larsen——Brownhill(c)——Redmond
——————-Foster

Or continuity/find best XI

——————Muric
Roberts-O’Shea-Delcroix-Taylor
—————-Cullen-Cork(c)
Larsen———Berge———Redmond
——————Foster

Bordeauxclaret · Post by **Bordeauxclaret** » Sun Oct 29, 2023 5:43 pm

A couple of West Ham players got booked today and the commentator said they were out for next weekends game despite them having a cup tie on Weds?

Team wise I’d go as near as possible to the team that is going to play Saturday. They clearly need more practice playing together.

The embarrassment is that we could field twelve and probably still get played off park based on recent performances.

dougcollins · Post by **dougcollins** » Sun Oct 29, 2023 5:55 pm

I'm in agreement with the statement that Muric will have a good game and be benched against Palace.

I don't see a way back for him.

Hedontplayforyou · Post by **Hedontplayforyou** » Sun Oct 29, 2023 6:01 pm

Egan-Riley to become the new roberts hopefully if he has the talent ? Isn’t that where he played for city in the odd appearance and in loan at Hibs he played mostly right back.

warksclaret · Post by **warksclaret** » Sun Oct 29, 2023 7:51 pm

In my opinion no point in playing the fringe players other than Muric who must start. The team that faces Palace needs much game time and playing together. Hopefully VK does not feel he has to give others a chance.
Muric
Egan Riley OShea Al Dakhill Taylor
Cork Brownhill
Redmond Berg Larsen
Foster

Elizabeth · Post by **Elizabeth** » Sun Oct 29, 2023 10:56 pm

Muric

Roberts O'Shea. Delcroix. Taylor

Redmond. Berge. Cork Zaroury

Brownhill
Foster

Time to rest Trafford;
Give Zaroury a second chance in front of the home fans in an area of the pitch he knows well;
Take out the physically frail players - Palace are a big battling side;
Play players you know what you are going to get - means leaving Amdouni out;
Push Brownhill more up the pitch;
Work a system allowing Berge to make runs from deep

It's time to rest everybody & find 11 corpses from some nearby mortuary you'll find more life if recent performances are anything to go by.

One thing is for sure..... Sean Dyche will be licking his chops at the prospect, whoever we put out.

AGENT_CLARET · Post by **AGENT_CLARET** » Mon Oct 30, 2023 6:07 am

The first full team that is available, these players need more game time together

bf2k · Post by **bf2k** » Mon Oct 30, 2023 1:31 pm

I think we go with the strongest team possible. We need to get confidence into the players, get gelling in this system but more importantly we seriously can't lose to another relegation team in a week. That would be devastating to all then through in it's the first time up against Dyche (more for the fans than the players).

BleedingClaret · Post by **BleedingClaret** » Mon Oct 30, 2023 4:14 pm

Strongest team for me too, and less about winning this game and much more about being readier for Palace than we are, cos we aren't ready where we left off at 5pm on Saturday

---------------- Muric ----------------
Roberts. O'Shea. Al-Dakhil. Taylor

It would be nice if we had a settled team for the next few games instead the 4 or 5 changes each game. And massively praying our first choice centre halves are finally fully fit along with Benson and Foster.

ClaretPete001 · Post by **ClaretPete001** » Mon Oct 30, 2023 4:26 pm

This would probably be my strongest team

--------------- Muric ----------------
Roberts. O'Shea. Al-Dakhil. Taylor

................ Foster ................

This is an alternative to give players game time/rest/time to recover from illness.

--------------- Muric ----------------
Roberts. O'Shea. Al-Dakhil. Taylor
........ Cork Brownhill ..........
Larsen ....... Berge ..... Zaroury
................ Jay Rod ................

Injury or suspension to Traff maybe

CrosspoolClarets · Post by **CrosspoolClarets** » Mon Oct 30, 2023 4:37 pm

I would pick this for Everton, a free hit for some players, who knows, we may find a gem, and also bedding in what could be a strong team for Saturday. I’m assuming btw that Cullen is available but banned on Saturday. If Foster remains ill I’d play Jay but ideally he would be fit for 40 minutes at the end to pair with Amdouni who could also be a sub for Larsen.

Of that team only two are not fully proven to be very good at Championship level and they are full internationals for Belgium and Denmark. Others are also fully proven at Premier League level. So I am convinced we are capable of winning games, quite a few of them.

--------------- Muric ----------------
Roberts. Al-Dakhil. Delcroix. Taylor
........ Massengo. Cullen ..........
Larsen ....... Berge ..... Redmond
.............Rodriguez ................

Indeed but Everton are predicted to finish 5th bottom and this was their team that played yesterday:

Jordan Pickford
Nathan Patterson
James Tarkowski
Jarrad Branthwaite
Vitaliy Mykolenko
Jack Harrison -
James Garner
Amadou Onana
Dwight McNeil
Abdoulaye Doucoure
Dominic Calvert-Lewin

Nonayforever · Post by **Nonayforever** » Mon Oct 30, 2023 10:23 pm

Absolutely impossible to predict VKs line up , but I would go for the following line up.
Muric
Roberts O Shea Taylor Vitinho
Redmond Cork JBG
Amdouni Jay Berge

Pointless putting our wingers out there, no end result, no strength and offers nothing going back.

Very true but Everton have long since underperformed the sum of their parts, and of that list only Pickford, Onana, Doucoure, Calvert-Lewin and Tarkowski are significantly better than what we have, and I’m not convinced by Pickford or by C-L’s fitness.

Also, when we look at the squad’s of the other 3 rivals, I’m less convinced that theirs is better than ours. I could add Fulham and Forest to that. Everton have about the 10th highest value starting line up (transfrmarkt). Other sides have worse. We are 18th but not far behind a few other clubs.
