Andy Madley, has been appointed to referee this one

That good or bad? Presume bad as the vast majority are

They're all bad mate. I don't think we have favouritism with any official. Just had a quick look on Google, and he's had a few shockers in the past, especially with us and Utd.

He will make a dog's breakfast out of this, I'm sure.

I am not even going to try and predict the outcome of this, the Man Utd fixture often ends up in tears.

However after the 4-0 at their place I'm certain the players will be out for "revenge" and do everything in their power to even things up.
Also Moysie will be so up for this I don't think losing is an option in his mind, certainly no Dyche like "play for the point" crap.
I firmly think we'll go at them hard from the start.

My other hope is if their bench is as poor as it was at the weekend then we've not got the fear we used to have of Martial,Rashford, Zlatan sitting there like bogeymen until the hour mark.

We’re going to pump them to the point that final score has to type out the word of the number of goals we score against them in brackets.

(I’d take a spawny 1-0 though)

We should really be putting these lesser teams to bed.

We should really be putting these lesser teams to bed.

Hopefully ironic intent. 6 weeks ago we would have been hoping for a point. Lets not get ahead of ourselves.

This will be the last time we will play Manure at goodison - I hope the crowd is the 12th man

 

[Davideeyore]

We'll batter these.

 

[chippy1722]

Anything other than a win will be disappointing. Very poor team and I hope we don’t show them too much respect just because of their name.

Yes tongue in cheek

 

[Coleraine Toffee]

Don't normally like the early kick offs but have a good feeling about this one.

Not getting my hopes up despite the great form, the squad is overperforming at the moment imo, this run of points is great but I don't expect us to maintain this form until the end of the season. That said it's the last United match at Goodison and they are objectively awful... a result seems viable but Everton just aren't the type of club to get 16 points from a possible 18. Then again I didn't think 13 from 15 was possible.

I wouldn't say we are over performing mate.

This squad is nowhere near as bad as what was being showcased by previous the manager

Don't think we have had a game were we got points but shouldn't have. (opposition wise)
We could say Liverpool on paper but the performance deserved at least a point

Lets play the poor players/team in red and not the badge on Saturday and we can get all 3 points with just a half decent performance.

 

[Runub]

For a number of reasons I’m desperate to beat these. COYB

Wait, you DON’T think we’ll maintain borderline title winning form (comfortable CL qualification form) for a full half season?

Must be windy out on that limb.

When we start losing a few games you'll see some people acting like we should maintain that previous form or thereabouts.
