Match Thread Bournemouth 1-0 Everton Sat, 4 Jan 15:00

[Simon Buttle]

Have we ever played well here? Feels like we get played off the park every visit.

17 games, 8 wins to them, 7 to us, and 2 draws. We usually lose at their place. Today we will need to score the first goal imo.

I always remember the game there when we were 2-0 up, then 2-2, then 3-2 up in the last minute only to concede again 3-3 98th minute

I’d be tempted to try Ndiaye in the centre. Nobody else seems capable of creating a chance when little seems on. We’d miss him on the wing, but maybe he could create more from a central position? If not, I hope we play 2 strikers. I’m fed up of seeing Doucoure as the advanced midfielder, we need more skill and/or threat from that position.

And we thought it couldnt get any worse against them than that.

Everton will always find a way

It would make sense considering that's the position he's played all his career, but ginger bollocks knows best.

Remember it well. We also got thumped there twice in a week in the league cup and then the league a few seasons back. Not sure how Lampard survived that week.

 

[GoldenToffee]

Simply must be a handful of changes today following the manager's comments of players ignoring his instructions last week. Let's guess, there won't be.

Significant delay to kick

Significant delay to kick off and we lost 3-2 mate.

I remember something similar a few years back when Barkley scored the winner then the pitch invasion and added time. We know the rest.

 

[Toffeelover]

Dyche will be setting up the team formation for a 0-0 draw.

A 0-0 victory, thank you very much.

A 0-0 victory, thank you very much.

Of course, silly me.

Huge respect to the blues who have made the very long journey down today. Given out history at this shed, it’s a serious investment.
