Bournemouth v Everton

[Sixx1402]

Why would nobody stump up the cash for a striker with a ratio of a goal every other game in the toughest league in the world and is only in his early 20's?

I agree with you he's deffo worth it but i've just got a feeling no one will want to pay it. i can see bids of around £40 mill coming in which i presume will get rejected unless he kicks up a massive fuss

At least we have Stones back for CB cover.  Makes me less nervous.  Wish we would go with Bainaar for this one though, Oviedo and Clev on bench, Osman sits this one out.

Whats the Bournemouth team look like?? Im pondering a bet

Distin plays. Lovely stuff.

[Evertonian in NC]

Oh, somebody would pay.  Just a matter of whether it's someone Ron WANTS to play for, or would rather gives us one more shot at something special with this core group (minus Stones) while he waits for a bigger club to come calling.

Think Stones is 90% gone, Lukaku 60% likely to stay.  Nobody else important goes unless it's a management shakeup-driven thing that I don't want to think about.

Bournemouth make seven changes from the side that lost 3-1 against Stoke. Adam Federici takes over in goal, and Sylvain Distin and Eunan O'Kane also come in.

Everton are unchanged from the side that started in the 1-0 loss to West Brom. January signing Oumar Niasse is on the bench.

Bournemouth XI: Federici, Francis, Elphick, Distin, Daniels, Iturbe, O'Kane, MacDonald, Gosling, Stanislas, King.

Everton XI: Joel, Oviedo, Funes Mori, Jagielka, Coleman, Barry, McCarthy, Cleverley, Barkley, Lennon, Lukaku.

Your about 45% right

Pienaar injured again?

So, Reading beating West Brom, clearly not such an impenetrable defence as Roberto said it was !

[WeimaranerBlues]

Dream team! @alanshearer, @Redknapp & David Moyes are with @GaryLineker  doing the match

It says on Sky that Niasse may be out because of a wrist injury, nothing confirmed yet though

Be honest I'd have a "wrist injury" if Everton had signed me for 13 million mate.

good to see that reading have dumped west brom out.
