Everton (H) Match Thread

[Dr. J]

Huh? You don't see how Sturridge will help?

 

Not unless he gets some decent service. If he comes out to get the ball near midfield they'll chop him off at the knees every time. Guaranteed Mirallas yellow for that right now.

[kemskem]

We need Sturridge in there to remind the Everton fans about the time the last time.

[Nelly-Szoboszlai]

It was around this point last season that we started to click a bit.

 

I think it'll happen again this season. Can't base it on anything other than that we have the Indian sign over them recently, and that their defence is porous (not just from set pieces/crosses), but I'm confident that we'll do them.

 

Sturridge will hopefully be back. That'll bring a whole new dimension to our play. Will bring more out of Balotelli too, I feel.

 

Plus, I think Lallana has started to look a bit sharper.

 

We need to be a lot more decisive on the ball though. Is Coutinho match fit? If so, he has to start. A bit out of form. He's playing like Luis Garcia at the moment. Trying some silly things. But at least he's taking risks with the ball. His passes will eventually start coming off again, and with Sturridge back in the team (hopefully) running beyond a dodgy Everton back line, Coutinho has to be in, for me.

 

I'll go 3-1.

 

I'd be tempted to have a dabble on an Everton centre half to score anytime, probably from a set piece. Think Lallana will open his account too.

Tough one, can't see us battering them as the team is still finding its feet but the lads will know what it's all about and will put a shift in, Gerrard will roll out a vintage performance for this too as he always does.

Lukaku against our centre halves......

Well, it was this week a year ago that Suarez returned to the team.

 

Hopefully Sturridge returning can give us the same impact, we miss his pace and someone making the runs to combine with Sterling. We also need a settled team, the team pretty much picked itself for most of last season, we could do with getting back to a more consistent selection where possible.

 

Everton still seem to shit themselves when they play us and as they've just had two very bad results themselves I'm hoping for more of the same.

[ZonkoVille77]

I must admit, I am not looking forward to this game one bit.

I'll go 1-1.

[Boss]

I'm looking forward to this immensely 

 

Yeah same, we always beat them when they've got their tails up thinking they'll get a result.

[stringvest]

Though I'll be annoyed if we win as I've got to drive straight up to Lancaster after the match and won't have time for the usual gloat around town.  

[s(k)aturation]

5-2

Red card mayhem will ensue.

Bitters getting their own stewards on Saturday..

[Denny Crane]

This is more likely to be 14-13 than 1-0 both sides are coming under fire for their shambolic defending. If there is one man even more clueless about defending it is Martinez. 13 goals conceded in their first 5 games in the league so far is the most in the league.

 

Be interesting if Everton adopt a different approach as last season they thought they could outfootball us. That did not end well for them. In fact both us and them have a few things to ponder on how we go at other teams. Although being a derby may force the issue somewhat but if Everton do open up then we should get the 3 points.

Expect the meeeeerrrderrrererer chants to be particularly audible.

They're shite.  We'll beat them, we always do.  They'll turn up and get smacked like most years.

 

Mignolet, Manquillo, Sakho, Skrtel, Moreno, Gerrard, Hendo, Lallana, Markovic, Sterling, Balotelli.

Our season starts here.

Our season starts here.

Unless we lose, then it starts against Basle.

They're shit... We are shit. Shit.
