Dugout Discussion – Everton vs Middlesbrough

Saturday’s events come to a close at Goodison Park with Ronald Koeman’s upwardly mobile Everton side hosting Middlesbrough.

Frankly, this match is all about Romelu Lukaku.

The Belgian exploded a dramatic 11-minute hat-trick just six days ago at Sunderland and heads into the tea-time encounter backed by almost 250,000 new owners, with 6% handing him the captaincy.

Koeman’s side will be bidding for a fourth straight victory and a third consecutive clean sheet.

Middlesbrough’s task looks tough, then, having suffered a home reverse in Gameweek 4 at the hands of Crystal Palace.

Alvaro Negredo goes into the contest desperate for a goal having blanked in his last three. Having soared early on as a Fantasy Premier League transfer target, he’s been hemorrhaging owners for the past three Gameweeks, losing 164,000 heading into Friday’s deadline.

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

    Tried to stick Alexis, KdB, Aguero and Lukaku in the same WC team.

    What do you think about this?

    Jaku - Pickford
    Valencia - Williams - Evans - Holebas - Amat
    Alexis - KdB - Firmino - Capoue - Fletcher
    Aguero - Lukaku - Benteke

      Jakupovic AND Pickford are too risky together and they're not going to bring you many points. Capoue and Fletcher are just bad as 4th and 5th midfielder, Capoue is soon going to disappear.

        I can do Benteke plus Fletcher to Fer and Rondon, don't know if that's good enough though.

    1) Lukaku + Haz > Costa + Coutinho and then
    move Ibra > Aguero with a -4 hit.

    OR

    2) Lukaku + Haz > Kun + Snodgrass -> I have no Livpool or Chelsea cover but I keep Aguero and Ibra?

        Huh? What does Nolito's RC have to do with Sterling? If he's going to get rotated that's going to happen anyway, with Sanè and Silva playing for example. I still don't see Sanè starting in the PL for now, though.
