Everton (a) - the Merseyside derby, 4/10/2015

[King Emlyn]

Everton will win this easily, I think we're only a few games away from fans actively campaigning for Rodgers sacking. Please prove me wrong, nothing is worse than losing to them.

[Original202]

What is our record defeat against these?

They've beaten us 5-0 on a couple of occasions - both 100 years ago. More recently 3-0 in 2006 but they haven't battered us very often, mostly low scoring wins.

[Nelly-Szoboszlai]

The small plus points are that we're still creating a fair few chances. Both tonight and against Villa.

 

We'll have better players on the end of them on Sunday.

 

I'm by no means confident, but fuck surrendering a derby before a balls been kicked.

So another record for Rodgers to aim for, your saying?

[Babb'sBurstNad]

Genuine question - when was the last time we beat a side in the top half of the table?

 

It seems like a while.

[chris71]

Just guessing, city last season?

It seems like a while.

Man City back at the start of March I think. Or Swansea a few weeks later if they were top half at the time? We've barely won any at all since then even against sides in the bottom half.

[Babb'sBurstNad]

Sounds about right.

 

It doesn't bode well.

Looking ahead to Sunday's clash with Everton, Rodgers reminded fans he hasn't lost a Merseyside derby and is still enjoying himself.

 

He explained: "We go into the the game against Everton and we will focus on our performance.

"The players will look forward to it. I haven’t lost a derby yet and they are always good games. We are point behind Everton - I know the media and written press will build the game up but we will stay calm.

 

"I am immensely enjoying the job, it is a great challenge and it is a rebuilding job again."

As long as we can keep the ending to Poor Scouser Tommy at the end of it.....

[Liverpool lad]

Everton are going to batter us on Sunday

 

Think of players we have had going into derbies into recent years and look at that current group of farts.  This isn't going to end well

Part of me hopes it does'nt. If it means he gets the bullet

[moof]

A new level of embarrassment awaits us at the pit.

Are they doing a live reading of the FF?

Can't see any other outcome. They are going to be at it like a bull to a red rag.

 

Only positive will be the end of Rodgers.

[dennis tooth]

Naismith and likely up front together wud cream us

[Anubis]

Are they doing a live reading of the FF?

 

Only Jermaine Pennant's posts.

[moof]

Only Jermaine Pennant's posts.

A missed opportunity, then.

[Liverpool lad]

This will be the result that gets him the sack

 

They have it in them to do us, and except the 45 minutes against Arsenal we have been shit all season.  I am going for 3-0 to Everton

[Anubis]

A missed opportunity, then.

Be patient. They may yet get around to yours.

[moof]

Be patient. They may yet get around to yours.

Solace, in a sea of shite.

[moof]

Maybe I should join in with the cool kids and start calling the manager a 'filthy cunt' etc. That would be less embarrassing for me.

[Anubis]

Touchy.

[bossy]

I fail to see moof's reason for distaste after watching our team over the last year.

Excellent news.

What the fuck is he rebuilding?
