as much as he goes missing I think Eriksen would have unpicked the lock by now in this game. I would ask Dembele to get close to Gareth Barry and draw the foul that will get him sent off. Confident we will get three points today.

It's no good playing 'entertaining' football if you fail to score.

Well we have no forwards, and Kane... Well no one still knows for sure if he's a one season wonder.

We are certainly playing a dangerous game this transfer window

We miss Eriksen directing traffic. Mason is making some great runs, and playing well, but we have nobody who is acting as playmaker.
Eriksen doesn't do it anywhere near as much as people think, just shifts on to his right foot and shoots most of the time.

Pritchard or Lamela would make more of a difference if it's incision we want.

Funnily enough Lamela for Dembele wouldn't be the worst shout.

Pritchard is worth considering as well.
I would ask the bench, who fancies going on and trying to wake the stadium up....then put them in midfield and let them run riot....

They're massively over playing this Kane stuff. Sensationalising as usual.

Glad someone else thinks this. They're talking about a goal drought and 'he'll struggle getting 20 this year' but they forget he didn't score his first goal until mid November last season. He'll be fine. He's constantly involved, assisting and creating. Media/experts are fucking idiots sometimes.

By signing N'Jie, Son and by all accounts another forward player to come....?

We're forced ourselves onto Everton, so i wouldn't want to change anything that would damage that dynamic. I feel while Dembele isn't creating much, he is helping us dictate the game.

Chadli is the floating player without much responsibility other than trying to create stuff and he is letting the team down there.

So my first sub would be for Chadli, as his subsitution wouldn't hurt our control of the game, but could provide us with someone who would be more of a danger to Everton.

Thought we played well, but also lucky Everton aren't counterattacking very well. The middle is wide open when we push forward.

Attacking wise we have been more of a TEAM which is encouraging and Bentaleb has limited his errant passes. I would just love Dembele in his place and put Pritchard or someone more attack minded up there with Chadli, Mason, and Kane.

Dembele so slow, never getting better. Getting the ball, taking 10 touches and holds up the ball, then passes backwards. Looking forward to Son, then Dembele kan get ready for the Europa League, good squad player, but lets realize it - he never gets better.

Still positive for the first half, think we got this in the 2nd. COYS

We have moved up one place, keep it like this and by the end of the season we could make 7th!
