- Why Everton need George and Dibling's pace against Chelsea
Everton fan James Costello has told BBC Radio Merseyside why he prefers Tyrique George over Brennan Johnson and how Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall has halted Charly Alcaraz's progress.
"George does have that attacking prowess. You can tell when he is on the ball that he is quality. He draws fouls and gets us in dangerous positions," said Costello.

"George has been fantastic this season and dropping him to the bench against Hull City kind of felt unfair.
"He was important for the England Under-21s in the international break. Johnson was lucky enough to get the goal, but his output does not excite me.
"Jack Grealish is quality, but him and Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall don't work together well. They're similar players in a way. They bring in chances and they do dominate, but I don't think they work well as a pair.
" Chelsea's defence are playing with a back three and the weak spots could be in the wider areas, so we're going to need to the pace of George and Tyler Dibling.

"Charly Alcaraz is strange for me. He came in 18 months ago on loan and he set the world alight.
"Dewsbury-Hall has halted Alcaraz's progress because they're similar players."
