    EVERTON v WATFORD

    Goodison Park
    Saturday 23rd October 2021
    Kick Off : 1500 BST

    Everton's last game at home to West Ham looked to be heading to a goalless draw until Ogbonna headed home a late winning for the visitors. That was Everton's first defeat at home this season in what was their poorest performance in the final third.
    If Everton do welcome back Richarlison from injury their attacking potential will be increased. However the loss of Doucoure who many think has been their best player going forward will be a minus.

    Watford were thrashed 5-0 in their own backyard by Liverpool last weekend and won't be looking forward to a trip to Goodison Park on Saturday, a ground they have never won at before. Will this weeks birthday boy have had more time to work out just what his best team is from those available to him? Another poor showing could spoil his week.

    I want to see in no particular order:

    Fight
    Organisation
    Chances created & scored

    There has to be an improvement from recent performances minimum.

    Joshua King is back in contention for Saturday's trip to Everton after missing last weekend's defeat to Liverpool with a knee injury.

    The former Toffees striker has returned to full training this week with his teammates at London Colney.

    Kiko Femenía is a doubt however after sustaining a knock above the hip last weekend. The right-back has been receiving treatment this week and will be assessed before the squad travels to Merseyside.

    A midfield would be a start - one that doesn't go missing, one that works as hard as Jackett, Taylor and Lohman did.

    At first glance I thought that was the team you were predicting but that is what we need in that order for the next 30 games

    Foster
    Ngakia Ekong Nkoulou/Cathcart Rose/Massina
    Sissoko Cleverly Tufan
    Sarr King Pedro

    With the players they have uninjured Everton could probably produce Organisation and Fight but we have to makes sure we dont give away any silly chances

    A reaction. A proper, proper, reaction from the Watford players. Win, lose, or draw, a proper reaction. And we owe ourselves a positive result against this lot. A proper positive result.

    Might not be able to join you tomorrow as we have visitors.
    As many of you have said, win, draw, lose we need to turn up and put on a committed performance.
    Enjoy the game all.

    What we need Scully is a player with your speed and trickery to get behind the defence with Nigel Callaghans crossing accuracy

    Sarr do the business tomorrow

    I guess it’s good Ranieri knows it was a bad move albeit we never really had the ball enough to find out if it could work !

    Not sure how Masina and Kucka keep their places .

    Obviously they feel Rose was to blame most.
