Everton v Valencia - Saturday 4th August - 3:00pm

I fully agree with that.  Think it will take a bit of time for the partnership to find comfort, but Siggy always shows for the ball internationally.  Silva just has to convince him the opportunity is there, and to seize it.

I worry about extrapolating from his Iceland performances because they seem to mostly play without the ball.

Need to just get him on the ball as much as possible. Minimum touches, minimum passes, minimum runs into the 6 yard box.

As daft as it sounds for a preseason game we need a result now. Cant go into the season having lost 5 on the trot only scoring 1 goal. We win this and all the other games are forgotten and we can start the season with some confidence. Another hiding and youve got to start fearing for us

.................Valencia play Leicester tomorrow so they might mix up the team a bit ?

[Sir Stealth]

We couldn't be less prepared for that Wolves game if we tried.

He has decided to cut his holiday short and return training on Friday now so might feature against Valencia

Think whatever team starts Saturday is likely our starting teamv Wolves. Even if we bring in a CB next week since it may take a bit to get them integrated.

Schneiderlin/Davies
Gana
Sigurdsson

Walcott??
Tosun
Richarlison

least our goal difference is still pretty healthy, even if we get another hiding.

Richarlison

Yeah, the side that got bullied by Rennes is, unfortunately, likely to be our starting 11 vs Wolves.

The Keane/Jagielka partnership terrifies me with the high-line tactic, and the Schneiderlin/Gana duo fills me with little confidence, either for starting attacks or protecting the back four.

So does anyone know what Walcott’s, Holgate’s, Calvert-Lewin’s or Lookman’s (skiverlitis) injuries are, and when they are likely to be back?

[American Evertonian]

Pickford
Coleman
Keane
Jagielka
Baines

Sigurdsson
Schneiderlin
Gana

Sandro
Tosun
Richarlison

I could see this. With our subs to come on most likely to be Niasse, Walcott, Davies, and/or Mirallas if we need goals.

[Shogun]

Would love to see:

Pickford
Coleman Holgate Jagielka Digne
Gana
Dowell Sigurdsson
Sandro* Tosun Richarlison

*Lookman/Walcott if fit.
