Didn't realise how bad Everton's record away from home actually was under Koeman. A mate just posted it on Facebook... It's appalling.

It was 10th best/worst last season in the league. Got to be taking more than 18 points from the 19 this season. 

Problem was scoring goals. Conceded 28 which was better those around us and the same as Arsenal who got 12 more away points. Even someone like Lukaku only scored twice away from home since the turn of the year.

I'd like to see us stick with the 3-5-2. Bring on another winger if we need more bite. 

 

Morata-----Pedro

Cesc

Alonso---------Bakayoko-----------Kante---------------Moses

Rudiger------------Luiz-------Azpilicueta

Courtois

Rolando Aarons should start for us imo. I thought his career would be a write off after 2 years of injuries at such a young age but he's shot up to over 6ft in that time and packed the muscle on. Great pre-season and tore through Forest last night. He's become a bit of a Cristiano Ronaldo copy, the potential is huge.

Atsu should be dropped for his performance at Huddersfield, that is what our squad competition should do.

Could get ugly our game like last season there. Monday-Thursday-Sunday all away and so far, all tough where we've had to work for the results. 

If Chelsea get one early they could run away with it.

As much as those 'experts' on MOTD, Sky, Talksport etc slagged him off for it I was delighted that we began to play hoofball last week because it shows DeBoer is willing to abandon his principles based on certain situations. You could argue that a weakened Liverpool who we have a fantastic record against was the wrong team to try it against. But the fact he's at least willing to learn and be versatile is good enough for me.

Tammys not scored yet, Roques still to get match fit, and Clucas has been there five minutes. This is the perfect side to start our season against. We really need a win considering our upcoming fixtures, but I wouldn't be against a draw to build confidence going in to the international break so we can approach the next set of games with a more positive mind set.

Screamer from Daniels. Great hit. Reminds me of Umtiti (?)  for Lyon against Spurs few seasons back. 

David Silva's ball for Jesus' goal was beautiful.
