Splendid Rush 2 Posted August 6, 2013 Bunn; Whittaker, Turner, Martin, Olsson; Snodgrass, Howson, Johnson, Redmond; Fer; van Wolfswinkel. Subs: Nash (GK), R Bennett, Ayala, Garrido, Tettey, Butterfield, Hoolahan, E Bennett, Hooper, Becchio. Probably starting to look a little more like the side he''ll start at Everton. Is Ruddy injured?

Redders Right Foot 22 Posted August 6, 2013 Think it''s more of a case of Nash and Ruddy have taken most of the games, I believe. may be wrong though.assuming a 4231 with howson behind vw? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lappinitup 629 Posted August 6, 2013 Bunn played against Brada.......Wass gorn on? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Branston Pickle 3,659 Posted August 6, 2013 Looks a pretty good starting XI, Seb for Whittaker with a wee bit of switching and the outfield may well be close to the Everton starting side - that is assuming no new signings. It is certainly a bit odd re: Ruddy, he hasn''t played much this preseason if memory serves....if he''s not back Saturday you''d have to wonder if all is ''well''.

yoda 0 Posted August 6, 2013 So is either Hooper or Van WW going to be on the bench every game then ? Was hoping they could build up a great partnership . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Splendid Rush 2 Posted August 6, 2013 So assuming Ruddy will play vs Everton and Bassong will come in at CB, is this the team he will start with? Or are there places still up for grabs? RM for SW at right back perhaps?(This is assuming there is no more signings before then of course) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dubai Mark 0 Posted August 6, 2013 Ruddy not playing is a genuine surprise with only this and one more to go. As for Hooper and RVW playing together, I doubt it will be a regular occurence but you never know. should be a good run out tonight against quality opposition.

Jim Smith 2,319 Posted August 6, 2013 I think Johnson playing as he''s had very little game time in pre season but come Everton Wes might well come in for him. Hughton seems determined to keep trying Fer in the Wes role but from what I''ve seen so far I am not convinced that''s his position. I see Fer playing alongside Howson with Redmond, Wes and Snoddy as the three behind either RVW or Hooper. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sussexyellow 55 Posted August 6, 2013 Bunn and Ruddy shared a half each for the first two matches in the States. Nash took the other one. Ruddy took Brighton, Bunn - Braga.So could be that they are just sharing it out, whilst giving Nash a taste of FCR. So would expect to see Ruddy start on Saturday.

Bethnal Yellow and Green 1,558 Posted August 6, 2013 Ruddy has been spotted at Carrow Road so calm down pants wetters. He''s probably just being rested as a precaution or allowing Bunn to get some game time, the defence is pretty settled from last season so a little rotation won''t hurt.
