Match Thread Chelsea v Everton - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[Barnfred 55]

Everton have put more crosses in than any other team in the premier league this season. Really?

 

[Deulofeumygod]

Love our team.

Hazard starts

Keeping Ratboy away from the boo boys is a smart move, he'd only be hiding from the ball all game crapping himself.

The flip to that is, we have had the least crosses beat the first man

Great team for The Mighty Blues today.
Barkley in substitute shock! (Again!!).
I can feel a well deserved win coming our way my friends.

 

[Darth Toffeeman]

Gutted Hazard is playing. Had hoped to see a Ross meltdown in his place.

Let's get the 3 points Everton.

We'll have chances to hit Chelsea on the counter here but it's all going to depend on how well Bernard and Walcott play. Alonso is like a winger at times with how high he pushes up so there will be space in behind.

Get Richarlison to run at Luiz and we could find some joy. Tough start for Mina but on the flip side it's a great chance for him to show everybody what he's all about.

 

[Khalekan]

Can't wait to watch all the poppy wearing Nazi fascists pay respect to the fallen at Stamford Bridge today - the horrible, hypocritical racist scrotes.

God I hope we beat them.

That reminds me of a verse from the Billy Bragg song, The Few.


At night the baby brotherhood and the inter city crew

Fill their pockets up with calling cards
And paint their faces red white and blue

Then they go out seeking different colored faces
And anyone else that they can scare

And they salute the foes their fathers fought
By raising their right hands in the air

Don't think we've scored many headers. Tosun got one from a Walcott cross. DCL from a Lookman cross. Any others?. Have we actually scored from a corner yet?

Hope we aren’t risking Richarlison here and he comes through unscathed.

Surprised Walcott carries on he has been poor - saying this so he comes good honest

Need too be doing a lot better than off late mate.

 

[Gwladys St. Glory]

I wouldn't play Barkley against us either, we're a decent side.

Too many of them gently floated into areas where the defenders are favourite.

 

[YoboCopter]

Mina to put hazard in his pocket for 90 mins

 

[CahillsCornerFlag]

Id be worried about our lack of pace at centre back but Morata won’t punish us in that regard. Mina coming in could be ideal to deal with the aerial threat.
