Soldado has a lovely touch and links play up nicely with the ball playing CMs like Eriksen/Lamela.

He's just in a bad place in front of goal and needs a bit of luck.

Hat-trick vs Everton would do nicely

@NChadli: 100% and back in training today! #Focus http://t.co/tfG3lLbErE

Lloris
Chiriches Dier Vertonghen Davies
Lennon Stambouli Mason Eriksen
Kane
Soldado

Can't see a reason for persisting with Soldado beyond trying to get some money back on him..

Lloris
Vlad Fazio Verts Davies
Stambouli Mason
Lennon Lamela Eriksen
Kane

They have their top lads back it seems.

Assuming none are match for that were missing...

I'd go a 4411, give Baines and Coleman something to worry about behind them.

Lennon right, Lamela left. Wingers, not inside forwards. Let the fullbacks defend first and foremost.

Lloris

Vlad..........Fazio.........Verts.....Davies

Lennon...Stambouli...Mason...Lamela

.........................Eriksen
...........................Kane

I am a bit perplexed why Stambouli hasn't featured in the league at all for us so far?

He looks like a neat and tidy midfield holder who can play key passes so why not play him?

For me, Dembele has been a real disappointment.

He's yet to reproduce his highs at Fulham.

I do think the team is playing better football - be it mostly in the second half!

There was some intricate play between 4/5 players and it was encouraging to see.

Yet, if it wasn't for Lloris yet again, Partizan would've probably got more out of the game.

How long can we rely on Lloris for points?

Naughton should defo be sold off and got rid.

Don't rate that Ben Davies too.


Imo, he doesn't defend well and doesn't attack well either.

He was at fault for Hull's goal.

We have now two wins in a row, one away and one at home, so let's make it a hatrick,

PS: Stick with Soldado and Kane.

Hmmm tough one....

Lloris
Dier, Fazio, Verts, Davies
Stambouli, Mason
Lennon, Eriksen, Chadli
Soldado

I worry about their left side, especially as it looks as though Baines is likely to be fit. So Lennon as he offers more defensive stability and Dier to be an old-school RB who needs a compass when he approaches the halfway line. Chadli to do a number on Coleman defensively and attacking-wise

I agree that we should stick with Soldado. And hope he starts to score against Everton.
But the backs .... oh dear! Davies is a disaster, not up to Premiership. No, he won't do. He'll leak goals all afternoon. Dier, well that's a dire gamble to make!
Prefer Naughton, myself.
Frankly, this is not a team that is going to get a draw, a clean sheet, a solid defensive game. No way.
So, may as well hope attack and hope Lamela and Soldado and Eriksen can put some in the Everton net.
Oh for the days of Ledley King!

I changed my fantasy team to have kane in instead of chadli because it said he was injured, I was thinking Kane deserves a run in the team he has impressed me when I have seen him play.

chadlis back i see him training with seemingly no bother.

we are very, very lucky everton have an injury crisis and there coming back from a much tougher game in germany than we had at home to partizan. i cannot accept a loss on sunday as everton are up against it.

be interesting to see if poch continues to try the 4-3-3/4-5-1 instead of the 4-2-3-1 which has not been working.
