What They're Saying
Everton manager Roberto Martinez (via Liverpool Echo): "I encourage him [Ross Barkley] to take risks. It's not a problem if he loses the ball, it's a problem if he doesn't get on the ball. I really, really enjoy seeing Ross Barkley growing. He's a young man and he is still working on his decision making, but I thought he always made decisions today in the right areas and he's allowed to take risks."
Hull City manager Steve Bruce (via Hull Daily Mail): "We haven't got the points that we would have liked. All of those add up to a frustration and a disappointment. You've got to see it through and make sure you're strong enough to deal with it."
Tactical Preview
Player to Watch: Barkley continues to influence the attack from midfield. In six league appearances, the 20-year-old is averaging three take-ons and 1.5 key passes.
Everton's Projected Lineup (4-2-3-1): Howard; Baines, Jagielka, Distin, Coleman; Besic, Osman; Mirallas, Barkley, McGeady; Lukaku
Hull City's Projected Lineup (3-5-1-1): Harper; Davies, Dawson, Bruce; Diame, Huddlestone, Livermore, Elmohamady; Aluko; Jelavic
