Dugout Discussion – Everton vs Arsenal

2,390 Comments
Share

Saturday’s schedule concludes with the headline act. Arsenal make the trip to Goodison Park looking to build on the stuttering 2-1 win over Crystal Palace on the opening day. The Toffees meanwhile, will also be looking to improve on their first showing, having been pegged back to 2-2 by newly promoted Leicester a week ago.

Arsene Wenger rings the changes with a few surprises. He welcomes back two of his German contingent as Mesut Ozil and Per Mertesacker return to the starting lineup. Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain also starts, while Nacho Monreal comes in for Kieran Gibbs at the back. Santi Cazorla and Laurent Koscielney drop to the bench, with Calum Chambers retaining his start at the back. Olivier Giroud again starts from the bench with Alexis Sanchez set to be fielded in a central attacking role.

Roberto Martinez also tweaks his lineup with Seamus Coleman and Kevin Mirallas drafted in – John Stones and Aiden McGeady make way.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    2 Free Transfers - 0m in bank

    Begovic - Gilks
    P.Jones - Debuchy - Coloccini - Huttton - Moore
    Mata - Hazard - Ramsey - Sigurðsson - Albrighton
    Costa - Rooney - Jovetic

    So I want to get Jovetic out tonight before he drops, any recommendations. My last round thougts were to save the transfer so I could downgrade a mid for a better striker but now there's no one that stands out to be taken out.

        67 here, only got two players who have done nothing and then I'll have to start considering subbing out players on 5-6 points.
