Dugout Discussion – Everton vs Burnley

1,415 Comments
Share

After Arsenal eased past Brighton at the Emirates, we now make our way to Merseyside as Everton welcome Burnley to Goodison Park.

The Toffees’ start to the season has been far from convincing yet they have scored seven goals in their last three home matches across all competitions.

Budget frontmen Oumar Niasse and Dominic Calvert-Lewin – at 5.0 apiece in FPL – are both handed starts but Wayne Rooney’s 11% FPL owners are left disappointed as Ronald Koeman drops him to the bench for the first time this season.

Elsewhere for the hosts, Gylfi Sigurdsson looks to stake a claim for our five-man midfields ahead of clashes with Brighton, Leicester, Watford and Palace in the next five.

But Burnley’s away form will worry the home side.

Sean Dyche’s men have claimed points on the road at Chelsea, Spurs and Liverpool, with Robbie Brady and Chris Wood looking their likeliest source of attacking points.

Like their hosts, the Clarets also have fine upcoming fixtures – they entertain West Ham, Newcastle and Swansea and travel to Southampton in the subsequent five.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

    Pleased I watched Everton Thursday evening. Had Ward on the bench. Then realised how pitiful the Toffees are at the moment. Hello and welcome 12pts.

        Yeah I put Mee in the starting line up. And I'm an Everton fan...

        We are clueless. Koeman reminds me of Moyes at the end at United.

      Crystal ball. I also saw someone who had Iwobi Bellerin and two others left today posting who thought they might get 25 today - they must be happy and be good at predicting too.

    It's still pretty close points wise. I think in 100k to 1 mil range every point is worth 20 to 25k OR ranking.
    Might reconsider than -8 which equates to nearly 200k OR places if it does not work out.
