Will the injured players be a big miss for Marco Silva?No, they're not good enough
Yes, we still need them

The absentees for the Toffees will leave Silva with only the barebones of his midfield to choose from, with Beni Baningime also out injured following the Under-21’s clash with Fleetwood Town (as per Patrick Boyland).
However, some supporters believed that it did not present a selection issue for the Portuguese 42-year-old as those injured were not the required standard for the Goodison Park club anyway.
Well, they havent played most of the season anyway so would we even notice anyway?

What do we think?
It is absolutely clear that the mood in the blue half of Merseyside is a sour one, due to the cloud hanging over the club’s current boss, Silva (as per BBC).
However, the reaction is still a bizarre one, as supporters should want a full ensemble for the manager to chose from – regardless of who it is.
