Tielemans63 Posted 1 May 2023 Share Posted 1 May 2023 (edited) He's been in horrible form but I can see why Ndidi has been picked. If Everton have one thing, it's an aerial threat, so (in theory) picking Wilf means we can defend that without having to go with 3 at the back which would be a negative move in a home game we have to win. I feel sick  Edited 1 May 2023 by Tielemans63 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really important we get people around Vardy or we’re going to struggle. If we've learned anything from the Leeds game, it's keep it tight defensively, Wilf won't be asked to do anything he can't do tonight. If we only need 1 goal to win a game I'm super confident, if we need 2 just to get a point, I'm far less confident. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RowlattsFox Posted 1 May 2023 Share Posted 1 May 2023 It's a line up that would get pelters before now but if there is a difference mindset then we know there are good players out there. I'm worried though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think if each just keeps to their strengths, it could be great. Ndidi just needs to to win every ball, then quickly lay it off to Bouba or Youri. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FoxOfMelton Posted 1 May 2023 Share Posted 1 May 2023 I have no confidence in Luke Thomas at all. I really hope he proves me wrong. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coolhandfox Posted 1 May 2023 Share Posted 1 May 2023 Not surprised we are a little defensive, no point leaving ourselves wide open. Also it means we can have Tete and Daka coming on if we need to change it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Putting wilf in will only help us. How much competition does it drive in training if players that aren't being picked know we may make 3 changes each game depending on the opposition, keeps everyone on their toes, while still keeping a spine of a team.

StevieH Posted 1 May 2023 Share Posted 1 May 2023 If we can boss the midfield maybe get more through balls to Vardy. Can se why Kristiansen and Tete have been dropped. Tete a luxury player who just hasn't influenced games enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sly Posted 1 May 2023 Share Posted 1 May 2023 Everton will be awful for the first 25 minutes, look to control the defensive shape. In fact, this could be a really, really terrible game of football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingsX Posted 1 May 2023 Share Posted 1 May 2023 By the way, no watching this from behind the couch. No blowing it off and checking the score at halftime. The footy gods have selected us all for this torture and NOBODY escapes. Just think of those in the ground, putting their sanity on the line, and do likewise. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
