Grealish on bench, Calvert-Lewin not even in squad. Makes it more dull than it could have been.

Already been released by Everton I believe so no wonder he isn't in the squad.

Good to see Tim starting for Everton. I always liked him and thought he could have played a role for us ... a victim of the PSR shenanigans, perhaps?
We've got Bogarde for that role now, I suppose, to back up Kamara and Onana.

These are two very very ordinary line ups. The Villa Grealish will standout like a diamond, Mancity Grealish will just blend in.

Is it just me or does Pickford look really small in that goal. He looks smaller than 6’1

I think that has always been associated with him, that he's not particularly tall by modern goalkeeping standard.  Also, I think Leeds have a lot of big buggers so that probably doesn't help.

It's annoying that Leeds signed Bijol 'cos he certainly looked good for Slovenia; €21m from Udinese looks good business.
Remind me again: do we need a CB?!

Everton do look pretty thin in the attacking department.
