Everton have been so close to a brilliant start to the season, but a few minor issues have prevented the Toffees from giving Marco Silva the perfect start.
The draw at Wolves could have easily been three points without Phil Jagielka’s red card, and the same could be said for the 2-2 draw at Bournemouth when Richarlison was shown red.
The Toffees then put in a very disappointing performance against Huddersfield in a match that really should have been a comfortable win, so should Silva bite the bullet and bench his main striker?
Tosun hasn’t had loads of service, but the Turkish international looks sluggish and isn’t exactly getting involved in lots of the build-up play.
Bernard spent plenty of time playing as a “false nine” for Shakhtar Donetsk, so could he play the same role on Sunday?

The little Brazilian would add much more pace and flair than Tosun, and his ability to bring others into the game could have a similar effect on the wingers as Roberto Firmino does for Liverpool.
The 26 year-old’s intelligence and movement would wreak havoc for West Ham’s shaky defence.
So, Everton fans, would you take a risk and start Bernard up front on Sunday? Or stick with Tosun? Let us know your thoughts by voting in the poll below…
