Match Thread Brighton 0-1 Everton. Sat January 25th. 3pm

[blue to the bone]

We finally won a game . Scored 3 goals and played some top togger.
So let's go again . Would expect the same 11. We haven't a bad record down there . They have been only ok at home too. Into them Southern softies.
UTFT.

Easy win for moyesy

 

[GoldenToffee]

I wouldn't deem this an Expected Defeat under Moyes. Yes Brighton are better, but Moyes won't talk the players down all week publicly and send them out to simply go and defend with no plan B should we go behind. We may very well lose, but they won't hammer us. We can also take points from this fixture, but may need some luck - something that's been in very short supply this season. The players should approach the game high on confidence following the last game.

 

[Runub]

We won there 5-1 not so long ago. I wonder if Dyche is waiting for the call for some advice on how he masterminded that victory

 

[brieverton]

Draw very much acceptable here.

 

[Librarian]

Smash and grab

 

[lieneverton]

Not an expected defeat anymore, but also will be significantly harder than yesterday. A draw would be a very decent result, they've found some form again annoyingly after a bit of a weird period.

 

[Timbucktoo]

Would be happy with a draw on Saturday. Its nice going into the next couple of games some way confident that we can get results rather than hoping that we sneak a draw. We have a few games coming up that we might well get a few wins in and Spuds have a few more tricky games in February. It would be very funny if we were above them in the table and maybe have United below us too.

Less than a week ago almost all of us would have expected nothing from Brighton, not even a glorious 0-0. Remember them? But now, after 3 points and 3 goals versus Spurs, spirits are up and I see quite a few are expecting us to get something. Hope so, but this is not going to be easy at all.

A draw here and a win home to Leicester will leave us home and hosed

 

[windymiller]

Tough game, this one. I'd take a point.

 

[CielosGrises]

Point would be welcome - a counter attacking display, a la Dyche, would also be welcome.

A scrappy hard fought win with an OBrien header is more than acceptable.

 

[MisterJ]

Going to this one

Last game I went to was the 0-0 at Fulham last season, so I'd say this is another nailed on bore draw

 

[Vintage]

Hopefully we havnt used up all our goals yesterday for the next few games like the 4-0 against Wolves

 

[Exeter_Gently]

0-1 Moyes classic.

Rolling back the years
