Match Thread Bournemouth vs Everton

[BlueStevie35]

The upcoming one?

Yes the one that's happening in two weeks

Would like to see Bernard but like Lookman last week I don't see it happening unless we are up a couple of goals and cruising to 3 points

The upcoming one?

That's the very one, middle of September I think, it might be later, we won't play him until he is ready.

I'm plumping for a 3-2 win to us. I note that Sky NZ isn't playing the game so I've had to go to Bein Sports streaming services to watch it live. Very good service. Bein are good operators.

I fancy us this weekend to really take the game to Bournemouth and pile the pressure on them...

We will win

Just for laughs, I checked what our starting XI was at the Vitality Stadium last year:

Pickford, Kenny, Keane, Jagielka, Martina, McCarthy, Schneiderlin, Gueye, Lennon, Calvert-Lewin, Sigurdsson.

I'm honestly amazed that with that starting line-up we only lost to them 2-1.

lol...imagine if it was now; when the ground announcer reads the team sheet out, as each name was being announced, there would be increasing sniggering...at the end, the whole stadium would be doubled over with uncontrollable laughter lollol

...it's just a pity Yannick was injured...imagine his name being read out lol

...and the ground announcer starts getting in the mood and reads out Williams' name as "Tubby Ashley"...lol

...... until finally they were ROFL when Sam Allardyce was named as the Manager.

Just watched the highlights and honestly it's tough to describe how bad we looked just in a few minutes. Jordan Ibe looked dangerous, McCarthy basically started the break for their first, Keane got turned inside out by Fraser shifting the ball about a foot to the inside and they constantly got shots away from good areas. Incredible how much better we look already under Silva but tbf that's an actual nightmare of a team to work with.

I’m never confident vs these and I don’t know why.

Bournemouth 3 - Everton 1

Like we were against Southampton?

We were and the when it came to the point in the game when you actually make subs we weren't. What I mean is 2-0 up with 20 to play and then maybe you can toss someone on to get them some match sharpness
