Match thread(h) Everton

[AngryOfTuebrook]

Gonna be pissing it down in Croyde on Saturday as well...

I've checked the agenda to see which sessions I'll be missing.

[AngryOfTuebrook]

I fucking hate early kick-offs.

[Mascherano]

Is that sky slightly blue above their heads??

[Paulie Dangerously]

Bricking it TBH

 

Not because I think they're a better team

Not because they're in good form

Not because Lukaku is shit hot at the minute

 

Just because the footballing gods allow the smaller team in a Derby relationship a spawny win every now and again. 

[Babb'sBurstNad]

It's coming at a time when a spawny 1-0 to them wouldn't be a total surprise. Two sides that are rejigged slightly, with players injured and knackered from international duty.

 

Without Schniederlin I reckon we'll win the midfield battle, but then we'll be ripe for a counter as we press high. It's the kind of game everyone worries about, gets loads of build up, then ends 0-0.

Is Sturridge actually injured?

[TheHowieLama]

Our Cup final.

[Joey8FrogsLegs]

Is Sturridge actually injured?

 

Wrong thread.

[Total Longo]

A frenetic 0-0 or 1-1 with absolutely no quality whatsoever.   

[Arl arse]

They do flights from Rhyl now?

 

[jimmycase]

Gets my vote!

[Dr Nowt]

I think they'll win.

 

Combined with the not in any way premature announcement of a stadium move it will be taken as an implicit sign that finally IT has happened; they are due to overtake us and reclaim their rightful place. A kind of similar feel was around when we played them under the owl.

 

They will then contrive a way to spectacularly fall on their faces after both milking it to an incredible extent and being as unguarded as they always are about what this means for their future.

Just read, for all the flak mignolet gets, he's never been on the losing side while playing them for Liverpool.

Back in training as of yesterday apparently.

[Bogman]

That's fucked it then.

[G Richards]

This is the sort of game where I hope Sturridge comes of the bench and scores the winner. We need the points, and he needs a goal - both for himself, and also for his/our summer prospects of securing a move elsewhere. West Ham I'm looking at you.

 

Nice to see Gruijic in training too. I'd rather he played in the middle than Stewart or Lucas, if it comes to that. I think Grujic has a goal in him, and could do well with Can and Wijnaldum. 

 

Not sure what sort of team we will put out with the injuries and jet lag but hopefully they match Everton's fire early on (assuming that's what they do), and then get a grip of it and win the match.   

[Paco]

That's fucked it then.

He let in a howler for Belgium the other night.

[cloggypop]

I had completely forgotten about our 12 million pound midfielder Stewart.

[Mark M]

Has Henderson started back training this week or is he still out injured?

[Section_31]

If the Germans had invaded Britain evertonians would have helped them, like those Jewish police.

[Paco]

Has Henderson started back training this week or is he still out injured?

He's out

[Faustus]

Just watching the Premier League Show on the BBC preview Saturday's derby with a panel. Would have been nice if they could have got a red on there: three blues and a Preston fan. Peter Reid, Tony Bellew, David Prentice and Mark Lawrenson.

[Paco]

Chance to bury their top 4 hopes. They've had a good run but it's time to bring that to an end.

[manwiththestick]

Let's just shut them up for at least another six months.
