sunlit1688 Everton head coach Sean Dyche said in a press conference before the trip to Tottenham Hotspur (24 August) that he still cannot use defender Jarrad Branthwaite, who is accelerating his fitness, and will use what he has on the job, which has fans worried that they will be targeted with at least 3 goals like in the opening game. sunlit1688

The Toffees are without a full-back as Branthwaite is recovering from groin surgery and Ashley Young is suspended following his red card at Goodison Park.  ( sunlit1688 )

Captain Seamus Coleman, Nathan Patterson and a capable player like James Garner are all injured, while centre-back James Tarkowski is also a doubt. 

“Jarrad Branthwaite still has a fair chance. At this point in time he’s nowhere near competitive,” the England boss said. 

“The other two or three like Seamus Coleman and James Garner are a bit closer, having just started training with the group.”

“James Tarkowski’s status may be on the list, so we can look forward to the next match. As you know, the current situation with right-back Ashley Young is also suspended.”

“It will be a challenge.”

“We don’t have a lot of money to spend, so we just work with the players we have, and then hopefully we can get back fit and maintain that fit.”
