Match Thread Burnley v Everton - Team Prediction, Match Report & MotM Poll

[Cool_Blue]

‘Everton that’ will definitely mke a reappearance, but i dont think it will be with these. I reckon Dyche will tell ours to sit back and let them flood forward ( as the home fans will be demanding) and we smack their arses on the break

This. C’mon Blues, never mind a scruffy 0-1, let’s batter this lot 1-4

Conceding a goal fk that 0-4

Big opportunity to make some ground today and id love to smash these Grassing Serfs.

Anyone who comes in are now coming into a side with belief. I think that should help Godfrey massively if its him. The malaise and lack of belief in the team and from the players in themselves affected him more than most I think.

burnley not letting any protest flags or cards into the ground is very poor!

It’s not because of the protest it’s because they’ve never seen coloured paper in that part of the world and would accuse you of witchcraft

I hate these bleeding 'should win games' its where we coined the phrase 'Everton that' from these type of games.

 

[Charlie Sweet]

A 1-2 gritty win for the royal blues for me.

Under the lights, a team on the up vs a team and manager under pressure. Hmm.

At least they can't get their first win of the season against us. Nailed on then.

I just want to point out that this is a hilariously bad toupee. Come on @davek, have some self-respect.

It's his tribute to Bill Kenwright.

Absolutely critical that if we don't win today, then don't get beat!
Simplistic I know but mightily important we don't lose against teams around us.
Who would have forecast 9pts from the last few games? Don't blow it against Burnley.

This is it in a nutshell. Dyche has worked wonders, but a lot of that work will be undone today if we lose at Burnley. It is vital we go there and get a result. I will be delighted with a draw. If we win, fantastic - and we should go there to try to do that - but we need to nurse our lead over them in the table at all costs. If we perform as we should, I am confident we will avoid defeat at least. But Keane and Godfrey terrify me. Those players can undo the best plans of even the best managers.

Dont forget to pick up your TWO A4 banners.

One to be confiscated by the grasses.
One to hold defiantly in the air on 10 mins

 

[Drico]

One of our defenders are scoring today and im going with Tarks.

I'll go with Michael Keane (OG).

Still traumatised from that 3-2 reversal a couple of years back.
Boy, did the media like that. Almost as one, they reckoned that was confirmation we were losing our place in the PL.

 

[ForeverEverton]

Hopefully we go for these tonight!

Burnley will not be at full strength, they have quite a few missing.... UTFT

 

[davek]

I don't believe in our dodgy defence today.

The attacking four will have to be at their best to get a win.
