Once again Sat 3pm, imagine if we could get a home game at that time!

INJURED OUT: Lukic, Bobb //// Grealish
DOUBTS: Muniz //// Mykolenko

Stuart Attwell in charge for this one:

Fulham: P27 W10 D6 L11 https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/stuart- ... n/1/plus/0
Everton: P31 W12 D7 L12 https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/stuart- ... n/1/plus/0

Get a nifty little win here.

Still very much in the mix for Europe.

I fancy us to win here.

0-10 - George debut quad-trick

Fulham away isn’t the happiest of hunting grounds. Think we will get a point

Silva due a win, has had some shitty decisions last three matches. PGMOL probably decided to let him have this one otherwise he’ll go mental again.

Pickford
Patterson O'Brian Branthwaite Mykolenko
Gana
Ndiaye Armstrong George
KDH
Barry


--------------------
Rohl
Dibbling
Garner

On in second half

I'd be surprised if Tarkowski is ever dropped. I'm expecting:

Pickford
JOB Tarkowski Branthwaite Mykolenko
Garner Gana
Alcaraz KDH Ndiaye
Barry

No reason to drop Tarkowski at all.

There is if he puts faith in his RB and accepts that O'Brien and Branthwaite are our best two centre backs. Even allowing for Branthwaite being injured, he's at a different level to the others and Tarkowki's been the worst of the four all season.

Just don’t think we should be flogging Branthwaite to death after six months out, they might be technically the best two but do they have the same, for want of a better word , leadership ability, maybe Branthwaite but o’Brian perhaps not.

Yeah I think JOB and Branthwaite would be good to see again but Tarks does bring the leadership and is probably a big part of the squad. Tarks-Branthwaite has also been a big success as a partnership for us.

It's Keane who should be out of the team now. JOB as well imo but I think Moyes prefers to have him in the team wherever and will sacrifice Patto to do so.

Oh I don't disagree about Branthwaite, I said last week we should bed him in but given that he's played a game and a half in the last two games I think Moyes will be starting him now. Tarkowski's made several mistakes this season though and I don't even know that his leadership skills are that good that it warrants picking him every week when everyone's fit.

I’m guessing Branthwaite will start versus Fulham, then be rested for Bournemouth on Tuesday evening. Given how long he’s been out, expecting him to play two matches in 4 days is a big ask (especially if he’s playing left back! ).

JOB was at fault for the goal against Brighton as he left his man / didn't get tight when the ball came across. He's cost us a few goals this season in similar situations where he's not tracked someone or been late responding to danger when playing RB.

I hope we see Patterson back at RB and with Jake or Branthwaite pairing with Tarks, but I think we all know exactly what we'll see unfortunately.
