Many Everton fans have been left fuming as the starting XI was revealed for their game at home to West Ham United in the Premier League this afternoon.
As shared by the Toffees’ official Twitter channel, Jordan Pickford starts in between the posts, with a back four made up of Seamus Coleman, Michael Keane, Ben Godfrey and Lucas Digne ahead of him.

Allan, Abdoulaye Doucoure, Andros Townsend, Alex Iwobi and Demarai Gray make up the midfield, while Salomon Rondon starts up top.
A lot of Everton supporters are particularly bemused that the much-criticised Iwobi is starting over academy product Anthony Gordon, while others are unhappy that Rafa Benitez has left Yerry Mina on the bench against the Hammers.

Everton fans on team news
These Toffees fans were left fuming as the team news was announced by the club on Twitter, with one fan going as far as to claim that it was a ‘questionable’ selection by Benitez:
“Iwobi over Gordon is questionable. Don’t get me started on the striker.”
“You’d be fuming if you’re Gordon”
“Iwobi adds absolutely nothing, God knows how he continually gets in the side.”
“Nooo Mina”
“Why is Mina benched you donkeys?”
“Post the real team, would rather play with 10 men than have Iwobi”
