5 changes - Zouma, Alonso, Kovacic, Havertz and CHO for Rudiger, Chilwell, Kante, Mount and Ziyech.

So about resting Mount, @Tomo...

BIG BIG day for Kai.

 

Time to deliver.

I am only worried about Zouma. At least he wont play in the middle.

I like it overall. Not so much changing the CB’s up for such a huge game. Especially with Zouma who is the most mistake prone CB. 
 

Really hope we see a confident, assertive Havertz here. Get him in form and it would be huge for the remainder of the season.

Let's bask in the glory that we can make 5 changes that include Kovacic, Havertz and CHO. With Pulisic fresh as a daisy

I wonder if the Zouma selection (and Alonso) has anything to do with this...

Hes obviously still rotating - but the subs bench is strong. 

Reckon we'll get three points tonite !

Certainly looks like TT has gone with a more physical, taller defense here for sure. James and Alonso as the wingbacks rather than Chilly and CHO shows that too.

For love of god, all I ask is that we don’t allow Everton to come out and bully us or press us into making silly mistakes. We need to take it to them from the off.

[Fulham Broadway 16,392]

What is important tonight is the attitude. 

Looking at their line up Iwobi, Richarlison, Calvert Lewin - not technically better than ours but they have spirit and bottle

We need to have a  hard and ruthless mentality not just pretty possession

KTBFFH

[King Kante 1,296]

Not happy about the line up. Very lightweight in midfield and upfront and then we also risking Zouma again doing something stupid again (although I suspect he has been picked because of his heading ability.) 

Most surprising thing for me is Mount, I feel we are going to miss his pressing ability and Everton will go from back to front very easily against us. Won't be surprised if TT changes things at HT.

It will be interesting to see where Havertz is playing?
