Gameweek four concludes tonight at Goodison Park, as Everton play host to Newcastle United. The Dugout Discussion opens to see two sides with high ambitions for the season tussle it out. The team news is in and is as follows…

Everton XI: Howard, Hibbert, Jagielka, Distin, Baines, Mirallas, Neville, Osman, Pienaar, Fellaini, Jelavic.

Newcastle XI: Harper, Perch, Williamson, S Taylor, Santon, Anita, Cabaye, Gutierrez, Marveaux, Ben Arfa, Cisse.

David Moyes makes two changes from the side that suffered defeat at the hands of West Brom in matchday three, with Tony Hibbert and Kevin Mirallas starting in place of Darron Gibson and Steven Naismith.

As for the visitors, Steve Harper replaces the injured Tim Krul, and James Perch and Mike Williamson patch up the defence in the absence of Danny Simpson and Fabricio Coloccini. Slyvain Marveaux is a surprise inclusion, as Demba Ba drops to the bench.

The Dugout Discussion chatroom is open and can be accessed right here.

      Had one too many rough challenges on him I think and he collided with a post which never helps. Should be ok though.

          Yes, but because PA are the stats used by the index, the BBC text feed tells me all I need to know. Mike Williamson has 3 clearances and 2 blocks. I think he might be ahead of Pienaar and possibly Ba.

      Be interesting to see if he gets BAPs. Should do, but a couple of shots off target may hurt.

    Corrigan regarding Gibbs, after their next 2 I think they have the best run until the Winter WC:

    Arsenal have improved a lot since Steve Bould took over the defensive coach and I can see 2 / 3 CS... 10 / 15.

      saw your reply last page, you were talking about players to get rid and mentioned also Ivanovic - may I ask why? Still good fixtures, but is he under bigger rotation threat now`? Maybe even for next weekend?
