Everton v Arsenal team news: Gunners unchanged

778 Comments

It’s 19th versus 1st in the Saturday lunchtime match, as Everton take on Arsenal at Goodison Park.

Kick-off on Merseyside is at 12:30 GMT.

Sean Dyche takes control of the Toffees for the first time and has made two changes from predecessor Frank Lampard’s last game in charge a fortnight ago.

Dwight McNeil, who is reunited with his former Burnley boss, and Abdoulaye Doucoure are recalled, as Yerry Mina and Demarai Gray make way.

The Arsenal team news is simple: they are, once again, unchanged in the league.

That means that Thomas Partey is fit, with the Ghana international having been forced off in the FA Cup defeat to Manchester City a week ago.

New signing Jorginho joins fellow January recruits Leandro Trossard and Jakub Kiwior on the bench for the visitors.

    Lol, Arteta lays a consoling hand on Zinchenko's shoulder, simultaneously guiding the angry lad down the tunnel.

      I wasn't a fan, but Arsenal were not exactly effective. The period after halftime is usually a period of dominance and chance creation for Arsenal. There wasn't the normal shift in momentum that Arteta wants/expects so he made changes. Nketiah has to stay on imo. Odegaard is more risky to take off early (though it could have been him). Martinelli was an obvious choice if anyone. I'm more upset with the Partey sub, but you can understand trying to get control of the game with Jorginho, since Arsenal were losing the ball more than usual.

      Not really, this Sean Dyche Everton played really really well, very solid defensively, and lest we forget they held City to a 1-1 draw.

      That's just how it works with managers. They get paid enough to not worry and the job is very demanding when they have one. Particularly specialists at the top and bottom of the leagues come and go and have plenty of downtime

    Arsenal were a bit slack on 50 50's. Everton showed they want to win more than them. Partey out was a bad decision but he may still carry an injury.

    Jorginho's passes are sideways and weak. Trossard is not one you bring in to change an aggressive tenacious game like this one. A lot to learn for Mikel Arteta.
