Loss Premier League: Everton 1 - 0 Arsenal | Saturday 4th, February | KO: 12:30 GMT| BT Sport

This should be relatively straightforward, the new manager bounce not withstanding.

The starting xi picks itself, unless Partey is not fit enough to start and Lokonga takes his place.

@razörist told me Partey was basically dead and wouldn’t play today

Keown struggling with the one word answer concept.

Sounds to me he had cold in his ribs, painful but no biggie.

Sean Dyche kissing on cheek

 

[Tir Na Nog]

Doucoure will essentially act as a second striker I believe due to his physical nature, expect him to stick on Partey a lot. Iwobi will come centrally probably looking to stop Zinny. We might need to be a bit more clever in the way we operate, think Dyche has gone for a way which purposely disrupts our buildup.

Apart from Wrighty we have some absolute dire ex-Gunner pundits.

 

[Sanchez11]

They are going to be compact and defend like fvck. Hate Dyche btw!! COYG!!

Great player, awful pundit.

Likes of Dixon, Keown and Merson is poverty stuff.

Peak Dyche.

 

[Rex Stone]

Peak Dyche.

Well based on history it’s not

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

There absolutely no creativity in this everton team so Saliba and Gabriel need to be prepared for long balls because that how they'll play

He isnt awful mate come on, hes a laid back version of Wrighty. Listen to him speak he bleeds Arsenal.

Respect Iwobi?

 

[North5]

This will be a game for Trossard to make an impact off the bench

 

[Sniper Mik]

What's our record against Dyche away from home?

 

[field442]

Well based on history it’s not

The Everton midfield if Sean Dyche had a magic wand.

 

[Tir Na Nog]

Surprised McNeil got the nod over Gray, but it's a case of maybe Dyche knowing McNeil and what his defensive contribution is like, Gray very attack minded.
