The team is almost picking itself, perhaps a decision to be made about the wide positions and the centre backs.
Think I would go for :-
Leno
BDR Tosin Ream Robinson
Ream Palinha
Pereira
Wilson Willian
It hurts not to find a starting place for Cairney but I am afraid the midfield is working so well that it would be wrong to make changes in that area.
What no Mitro!!
I'd put Diop back in for Tosin, and put Tete straight in. Rest stays the same assuming Wilson is ok to start

Are you anticipating an early red card, then?

No Mitro and 2 Reams, that will confuse Everton
Tete is back and available! Peter Rutzler has stated this from Marco's press conference.
2 Reams, just like the Man of the Match poll with 2 of the same. One hopes we start with 11 different players. Ream has had a great season but not sure he has the legs to play 2 roles at once...

That's a new level of confidence. Playing Everton with a starting line up of ten players and two of the same player.
Tete is back from injury by the way. But probably in squad
Leno
Bdr
Diop
Ream
Robinson
Reed
Palhinha
Willian
Pereira
Kebano
Mitro
Wilson is still gaining fitness and looked significantly off the pace against Leeds (we scored two of our goals after Wilson was subbed off) compared to kebano.
If Tete is ready to start he has to start. BDR has been brilliant as a makeshift right back, but Tete is the real deal. I'd also consider bringing back Diop who is a bit better in the air than Tosin and we can expect Everton to put in a lot of crosses for Calvert-Lewin.

Oh dear , terrible mistakes but it does show that in my mind the players of the season, so far, have been Mitro and Ream. Yes if Tete is fit he comes in at right back. So how about:-
Leno
Tete Tosin Ream Robinson
Reed Palinha
Pereira
Wilson Mitro Willian
With Tete likely to at least be on the bench. The squad is looking stronger.

Me too. Probably start with BDR and bring on Tete in the second half - he will need game time to get back up to speed. Wilson/Kebano is difficult to call. Wilson had some game time last week and will be closer to game fitness now and Kebano always seems better as a super-sub than as a starter. Its good to have choices and no doubt Silva will react to the game situation as it unfolds.
Whether Tete starts or not perhaps hinges on the nature of his injury and subsequent recovery. But so good has BDR been, we might be at the point where Silva wants him on the pitch as standard.
Was chatting with a Cardiff fan about BDR - he and the Cardiff faithful are amazed to see him as a starter for a successful Premier League team and astonished he's playing at fullback. Kind of a bit like my reaction to Dan Burn at Newcastle I suppose. Anyhow, my Cardiff supporting colleague rationalised it as follows. A Venn diagram of players who would be successful in a Marco Silva team and/or a Neil Warnock team might have a very very small intersection and possibly only goalkeepers might fit in it.
Leno
BDR Diop Ream Robinson
Reed Palinha
Pereira
Kebano Willian
Mitrovic
Would bring back Diop for this one and start Kebano over Wilson who doesn't look 100% yet.
I think BDR deserves to keep his place... he was superb v Leeds and scored a great goal.
Be a bit heavy to drop him after that game.
I really need Mitro to score... 10 b4 the World Cup would be amazing...

If Tete is fit, please start him. BDR has played well, but not as well. Also, he's more versatile off the bench covering for more positions.
If Tete is fit, start BDR on the wing. Wilson doesn't look ready. Or could be taking it easy with the World Cup coming up.
What times Kick off.
I'm reading some reports 12.30 others 17.30.🤔

What time can you get there?
Old joke from the good old days. :005:
I think Tete and Wilson were declared fit last week, another week training should have made them match ready. We should start them both and if they are not up to pace sub them at half time.
What a fantastic complaint - a surplus of fit players as opposed to a surplus of injured players! :003:
Wilson hasn't looked match ready to me so I'd have him on the bench. BDR is the obvious replacement but just a question- can either Willian or Kebano play down the right?

This one for me. No way BDR deserves to be dropped. Lebanon from the start also.
Kenny is fit
https://www.fulhamfc.com/?videoPlayer=0_4x1ufo88
Whether he starts or not is a different matter of course but I think we would see him at some point. Wilson may not be 100% but at 80% is still better then james imho, and the rest of the team speak for themselves.
COYW :drums:
Wilson looks basically fit, but rusty. So the age old conundrum of how to de-rust. Will only come with minutes. When all said and done, a fit Willian is by far our best winger. The others are fighting for one starting spot.
If Tete is 100% fit then:
Leno
Tete Diop Ream Robinson
Palhinha Reed
Kebano/BDR Pereira Willian
Mitro
Bench: Rodak, Mbabu, Tosin, Duffy, Cairney, Harris, James, BDR/Kebano and Vinicius.
If not then:
Leno
BDR/Mbabu Diop Ream Robinson
Palhinha Reed
Kebano/BDR Pereira Willian
Mitro
Bench: Rodak, Tete, Tosin, Duffy, Cairney, Harris, James, Mbabu/BDR/Kebano and Vinicius.
Tete is our best RB by far and should play if he's match fit.
Wilson is a tough choice He has always been extremely inconsistent. The fact that he had a poor game last week doesn't really tell us anything. He can still play a blinder today.
Personally I think BDR, Willian and Kebano all deserve a chance ahead of Wilson, based on their performances so far this season. Give Wilson 20 mins. If he doesn't make an impact he stays on the bench until he does.

I tend to agree about Wilson. Willian picks himself so it's then between BDR and Kebano. The former has been excellent at RB but I've felt Kebano offers more threat as a winger. Of course if Tete doesn't start then both play.

17.30.
Same team as last week for me but I would start Kebano ahead of Wilson based on current form. Wilson as a substitute.
I think Kebano gets back to help the vulnerable BDR more than Wilson, and he's also in better form.

Tete to start. BDR to play right wing. Wilson needs a rest and needs to gain sharpness and he's not at the right level yet.
