OFFICIAL:Flopped Everton 22-year-old Midfielder to exit club this summer as manager regrets signing

If Everton is to defeat Sheffield United on Saturday (May 11) and get all three points, Sean Dyche might have to

think about taking Abdoulaye Doucoure off at halftime.

With the Blades already eliminated and the Toffees safe from relegation, the game is essentially a dead rubber,

but Dyche will want his squad to finish the season strong.

Everton had won their last four home games of the season, including victory over Brentford,

Nottingham Forest, and Liverpool, before a 1-1 tie with Luton Town.

To maintain their 1-0 advantage against Sheffield United at Goodison Park, Dyche will have to take a risk and

switch out Doucoure at the break. He hasn’t been good enough, even with his goal in the 31st minute.

The Mali international is now tied with the Toffees striker as the team’s top scorer in the Premier League,

following Dominic Calvert-Lewin’s recent surge in form.

Even though Doucoure managed to put two early close-range shots on target, totaling 0.53xG according to

FotMob, Wes Foderingham stopped him both times.

Even though the midfield player scored in the end, finishing four yards from goal, the manager should still hook

him at halftime.

Arnaut Danjuma, Andre Gomes, Youssef Chermiti, or perhaps Lewis Dobbin are among the options Dyche has

to replace the veteran at the half. It will be a difficult choice for Dyche to make.

The team will be eager to enter the game on the heels of a victory. Everton takes on Arsenal at the Emirates

Stadium in their season-ending match, and they might have a very significant say in the Premier League title

fight.

In addition to failing to convert just one of his spectacular opportunities, Doucoure has been extremely

inefficient when he has the ball in his hands, managing just a 63 percent pass completion rate while requiring

just 21 touches.

Additionally, he appears to be having difficulty handling Andre Brooks, Ollie Arblaster, and Gustavo Hamer of

Sheffield United in midfield; he has lost multiple midfield fights and been dispossessed three times.
