MURIC !!

[summitclaret]

Omg. Does this man ever learn. Cullen to be overrun again.

Reckon it will be Redmond central with JBL right and Tresor left, I hope Berge and Cullen are a genuine double pivot rather than Cullen on his own.

[Vincent'sCap]

Dyche fielding a very strong side,knowing that Everton won't get relegated or even be in a relegation battle,can only hope we don't get hammered.

[roperclaret]

Think Vitinho more likely right back with Delacroix left back

[Belgianclaret]

Let's hope Vitinho doesn't have yet another stinker tonight

[Newcastleclaret93]

I know I must admit, I feel slightly deflated after seeing the two starting elevens.

They just look so strong and full of experience.

[Murger]

No Cork again. Different players, same outcome I fear.

[dougcollins]

Al Dakhil has been disastrous so far at RB.

[tarkys_ears]

Redmond looked like he's still got it in the last game

I think he's gonna be the experience were gonna need starting going forward

[Vincent'sCap]

I know I must admit, I feel slightly deflated after seeing the two starting elevens.

Ironic he never cared about the cup with us and tonight against us he's going for it,hey ho eh?

[Newcastleclaret93]

Ironic he never cared about the cup with us and tonight against us he's going for it,hey ho eh?

Yep I did not expect him to go with that team.

Looks like he’s moved Dwight into central role which is interesting.

[ksrclaret]

I think it will be:

Muric
Vitinho Al-Dakhil O'Shea Delcroix
Cullen
Larsen Berge Tresor Redmond
Rodriguez

Also hoping that Berge will be deployed as another CDM alongside Cullen, who must be sick to death of being on his own in midfield by now.

[Belgianclaret]

I'm dreading their corner kicks and set pieces already

[FCBurnley]

I guess that means Trafford in against Palace and Foster still ill

[Milltown1882]

Ironic he never cared about the cup with us and tonight against us he's going for it,hey ho eh?

He’s played their full strength team all tournament so far. Here he had a fanbase that would accept us rolling over in the cup with a weak team, he won’t have that there.

[ClaretPete001]

I just ...... yes, the same.

Those tickets got snapped up quick I know I tried to get one but now feel sorry for the travelling fans.

I hope this is the magic formula that sees us kick off the season.

I think it will be:

Muric
Vitinho Al-Dakhil O'Shea Delcroix
Cullen
Larsen Berge Tresor Redmond
Rodriguez

I really hope that isn’t how we line up. The thought of Berge and Tresor playing as sixes makes me really nervous we could be on for a drubbing

[ecc]

Charlie rested methinks. Foster not in the squad. Was he ill on Saturday?

[BurnleyFC]

More than slightly annoying seeing Dyche take the cup competitions seriously, after the dross we had to put up with.

[HahaYeah]

[Bigvince]

Pleased Nathan Redmond getting a run out, might prove me wrong but I think he’s still a good player

[Pickles]

That's a strong looking Everton side. Ours? Well.

There’s at least 5 players on that bench that get in our starting eleven

[CoolClaret]

Happy with Redmond/Larsen on the wings (presumably) and Trésor through the middle.

Should be a good ‘un… Oh and King Muric back in

[dougcollins]

Hopefully it means Foster will be good for Saturday.

[summitclaret]

So no signs of VK experimenting to try and stop teams bullying through our centre midfield. Unbelievable. At least he could have started Cork or Massengo alongside Cullen. He's quickly going from genius to a stubborn fool. Tresor and Berge in cm is as barmy as it gets.

[ksrclaret]

I really hope that isn’t how we line up. The thought of Berge and Tresor playing as sixes makes me really nervous we could be on for a drubbing

Just basing it on how we've approached each game so far under VK since around February.

Cullen as a 6 with Berge and Tresor as 8s.

[AlargeClaret]

While the side is no better or worse than any we’ve put out this season , the likes of Vitinho playing anywhere near this level is concerning . That said it’s a real chance for the likes of BL , Tresor ,Redmond, Delcroix to stake a claim as with the exception of BL they’ve been invisible. Could be a tough night but hope springs eternal !

[dougcollins]

Ironic he never cared about the cup with us and tonight against us he's going for it,hey ho eh?

Oh the irony.

The sh!te we had to suffer watching cup games.

Larsen Redmond tresor
Jay

[FCBurnley]

Unless Muric can perform miracles then I feel we will get outplayed and outmuscled. Sean will want to send a message to Mr Pace for sure

[ClaretAL]

It will be interesting to see if the central role turns Tressor in to a better player

[Buxtonclaret]

Evening, All.
Up for the cup!
COME ON UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU CLARETS!! p

[Pearcey]

Not holding much hope with that back four against a Dyche team to be honest. I am struggling to see where the next win is coming from. COYC.

[CrosspoolClarets]

Feels a stronger Burnley team than started last Saturday.

Redmond is only 29 by the way and has nearly 300 PL games. He may have a lot left in the tank.

[It Is What It Is]

Jack Cork needs to be starting every game from now on.
He is no doubt the talisman of the entire team.
With Cork we always seem to control the midfield... Without him... It's a bloody shambles.

[HahaYeah]

Not holding much hope with that back four against a Dyche team to be honest. I am struggling to see where the next win is coming from. COYC.

No. I am very pessimistic about this game.

[Carwin261]

Starting with three wingers again ,if we get stuffed tonight morale will be really low VK probably hoping Muric has a stinker so he can still play Trafford on Saturday.

[HahaYeah]

Like Redmond, what a pass for JRs 'goal'.

[Guller Bull]

This is it - this is where the season starts.

(I might have said that on Saturday and the week before but I mean tonight!)

[CrosspoolClarets]

Vitinho the only one of our XI without a full cap for his country, and there are some good countries in that list.

[Guller Bull]

Starting with three wingers again ,if we get stuffed tonight morale will be really low VK probably hoping Muric has a stinker so he can still play Trafford on Saturday.

OK

[ClaretLoup]

Odds on Everton have gone from close to evens to 8/15.

Looking at the line ups I fear the Bookies know what’s coming.

[burnleymik]

Muric
Vitiniho AAD O'Shea delcroix
Cullen Berge
Larsen Redmond tresor
Jay

I hope it's this but you never know with VK. Back line could be different and he could easily play Tresor and Larsen on their weaker sides.

[Carlos the Great]

If Muric saved 5 penalties and scored an injury time header after sprinting up to nod it in … you couldn’t guarantee he start against palace

[Ampth7]

Hopefully Tresor gets a go either out left or in the 10 role. Cullen and Berge as a double pivot and holding I would imagine?!

[Guller Bull]

What is our subs bench like?

[CoolClaret]

Muric
Vitiniho AAD O'Shea delcroix
Cullen Berge
Larsen Redmond tresor
Jay

Either that or one of AAD/O’Shea at right back, Vitinho at left back, Delcroix LCB & maybe Trésor / Redmond the other way around

I actually think it’s a better team than what we put out in our last league game
