Dugout Discussion – Everton vs Middlesbrough

17 September 2016 5055 comments

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.

          All those players are more expensive. Aguero currently banned and injury prone, Kane goes on massive dry spells. You don't have to own him all season. I don't own him, but he's a great pick.
