The Everton Forum / Re: Silva’s Playbook

This is a comforting paragraph:

“Now, let's look at the skill ratings in duels. Keane, Digne, and Coleman are mediocre tacklers, and Keane is weak in the air on dead balls. Also, Schneiderlin, Delph, and Gomes have been vulnerable on the dribble, which is not what you want in the middle of the park.”

Bears out in why we see as well.

Keane v long balls is alright, bhr

Won't really see him til next year now then will we really.

Being absolutely honest if we could fuck Schneiderlin off somewhere we should try and buy a midfielder maybe.

Not saying big money, maybe like a young potential number six who can get about a bit and is defensively alright.

Silva doesn't seem to trust young players tbh so can't see it happening, nor can I see him playing Davies or Baningime in cm so it genuinely is going to be Delph and Gomes with Schneiderlin in and out.

Was nailed on that and could see the end of Silva to be honest.

Out for at least another 3 months

It only took me a few minutes to Google a quad tendon injury rehab article at the time, that suggested getting him back on the training field within 3 months was very optimistic.

Good work by all involved 👍🏼

I don't get why people have so much faith in putting Iwobi in the 10 role, or a creative position? In 6 league games for us he's got 0 assists and created 0 big chances, yet Sig, who by all accounts is wank and does nothing has 1 assist and created 4 big chances, albeit from 8 games.
I'm not saying we don't need to freshen it up, I just don't get the Iwobi shouts if I'm honest, but it's each to their own.

I agree, but think he gets in good positions- he played a lovely chipped ball to Sigurdsson the other week, whose touch was awful, could put Bernard there, but prefer him with Digne on the left

Would be good to see what Schneiderlin can offer with an extended run in the side.

I'd like to see 4-4-2, with Kean and DCL both in the XI.  Drop Siggy back, or put him on the bench.
