Everton fans want Frank Lampard to make two line-up changes for Manchester United clash

Everton are gearing up for their next match in the Premier League as they take on Manchester United.

The Blues take on Man United at Goodison Park looking to pick up a precious three points in their bid to avoid relegation. The midweek defeat to Burnley leaves Everton one point about the bottom three with nine matches left to play.

Frank Lampard’s side are without a win in their last two matches, with their most recent victory coming against Newcastle before the international break. The last seven matches have seen the Blues pick up just three points, recording six defeats in that time.

Ahead of the game against United, we at the ECHO asked Everton fans to pick the team that they would like to see start at Goodison. Blues supporters have responded by naming the most popular team that they think Lampard should name.

The fans’ line-up sees two changes from the side that lost to Burnley in midweek. Despite conceding three goals, Jordan Pickford retains his place in goal.

Into defence and this is where the first change comes in. Seamus Coleman replaces Jonjoe Kenny, with Jarrad Branthwaite, Ben Godfrey and Vitalii Mykolenko keeping their spots.

Midfield also sees a change, with Allan and Abdoulaye Doucoure both retaining their starting places following Wednesday’s defeat. The fans’ line-up is likely to see a 4-2-3-1 formation, with Demarai Gray coming in to replace Mason Holgate, with Gray in the number 10 role.

The other players in the line-up see Anthony Gordon and Richarlison as the two wide forwards, with Dominic Calvert-Lewin included as the main striker. Richarlison goes into the game on the back of scoring two consolation goals from the penalty spot in the loss to Burnley.
