Match Thread Brighton HA v Everton - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll.

[varnish]

On the plus side there’s no way Albion have been training to go up against that eye-aids of a line up.

 

[Bungle]

This is exactly the sort of pre match reaction that usually means we win. You just have to hope the win comes with a couple more season ending injuries otherwise what do we have?

 

[tellmema]

Oh Carlo you little tinker! What do you have hidden under that eyebrow?

 

[NewRadical]

I'm starting to think we train on a Total Wipeout style obstacle course with all of these injuries.

 

[Dan79]

Where's DCL?

 

[diggerdestroyer]

Finch Farm must be like a war zone.

I doubt it very much from witnessing our pressing and physical game during the course of the season

 

[BlueToff]

3 injuries in a week, all in training? Add to that Bernard, Allan, Doucoure and Delph.

His methods are clearly causing injuries.

Said Dom got it in the last game. Doucoure wasn't in training, it was v West Brom. Delph a bad example.

 

[Bohemian Toffee]

I said his methods.

What’s to be confused about? I’m assuming you can decipher an English sentence.

You point to Robben organising extra training, you said low intensity.

Now, you're blaming him for knocks, which isn't consistent with low impact/low intensity training.

If you were more consistent I wouldn't need to decipher anything.

Iwobi just added 5 new random friends to his Facebook account.

 

[BlueToff]

Where's DCL?

Adductor strain, from the last game, yet trained all week, then didn't feel right this morning.

 

[Drico]

I honestly see no reason why we cant win.

We have enough good players on the pitch to win the game.

Yup, everyone gets injuries, that's why we have a squad. We still have plenty on the pitch to beat Brighton, who will be full of running and heart but not much quality. It's up to our players to turn up and put in a performance tonight when the chips are down. If the likes of Richarlison, James, and Sigurdsson can't do that, then I don't know why we are paying them what we are. If we want Carlo to get top four, we need a better squad. If we want him to beat Brighton, I think he's got enough good players to do that. Unless he doesn't. And if he doesn't, he'll get confirmation of who he cannot rely on tonight. All good.

Wow that lineup is awful and the bench is the worst I've ever seen

 

[Street end man]

Crafty.....we can lob three centre halfs forward if we get a corner and still leave one on the half way line in case they make a break from it. This guys not as daft as he seems

 

[Ducans elbow]

This place will be weird if we win this

What do you mean will be

That would be awesome, the club should sell the broadcast rights to it.
