There's a game on Saturday just in case everyone is getting caught up in Cup fever! A point from our bogey team would be real progress
Great match thread mate, a lot of thought has gone into it I can see I hope laudrup can fashion a win for us
The way the games have gone in order against the buggers have been 1-0 then 2-0 and finally 3-0 in the games played in the Premier League. I see a bit of a pattern emerging but if happily take a draw if offered now
lazy lawrenson has us to lose 2-0, gives me a bit morer hope of snatching something at Goodison!! 2-2 draw, goals from Ki and of course a late equaliser from DG!!
We can do well on this game, but if im honest i would not be upset if we played a squad game looking towards the Arsenal game with a fresh full squad
Devastated that Del Bosque is coming to watch us play the one team that bullies us beyond submission every time we play! Oh well. On the plus side, I think we were a more professional, astute unit at this point in the season than when we last played Everton. We're better at soaking up pressure for long periods and we no longer have to control games to win. We put pressure on when we want off the ball, and we counter attack with pace. I can see a similar game to the one against Chelsea and Arsenal on the weekend. Everton will see more of the ball, and we'll look to nick it. Unfortunately, Michu probably isn't going to look at his best. However, if he gets one decent chance and takes it again, that will be impressive for Del Bosque to witness.
We've been better than you n our 3 recent meetings & Saturday should be no different - enjoy the day lads
After the last few games against your squad Laudrup should have a plan to end your bogey team rep against us. Were not to bad away from home so if the lads turn up 100% switched on then we will be the better team ! So roll on Saterday then we will know .
we're not really your bogey team, We've probably only played you 3 times in the last 30 years or so! even though you've never beaten us. I am confident we will win, not because I don't rate your team but Moyes seems have your number judging by this season and last. 1-0 and 2-0 last season, 3-0 this season, why break the trend? 4-0 toffees! (but really 2-1 Everton)
I can't see us getting anything from Everton again. Since we got to the premier league, Moyes and Lambert have been huge thorns in our sides. We've taken 1 point from a possible 21 against those managers. I'd love to think we can improve that statistic but wonder how much that performance against Chelsea took out of us.
I just love it when we're taken for granted. We won't be the same side you played last season and even the game this season was very early on when the side were still getting to know each other. I'm not saying we're going to come up there and take the 3 points, but don't write us off just yet. Neville said after the last game that we were doomed without Caulker and that he wishes you could play us every week. I wonder if he'll still think that after tomorrow's game
Full squad out against Everton, then a lesser lot on the pitch for the Arsenal game. League has to come first
You guys have done really well In the Prem and I can see you staying for a long time I go for a 3-1win for us though and wish you the best for the season after Saturday lol
