Maupay hat-trick incoming

 

[Mashtray]

It's Goodison Park

A draw is the minimum we will get

 

[Ring master]

I want the win like i always do, but it would not surprise me if this ends 1-1, think we may have to score 2 to win this game

 

[COYB75]

I’ll pay you to stay home, arch!

Can we have a collection to make sure this happens please. If we all contribute £1 it will be well worth it and Arch might be able to have himself a nice holiday!

Let's hope for some good news regarding Onana

 

[brieverton]

Massive game, they all are.

A win here could really set us up and get confidence soaring.

It would be 9 points from 12 for Dyche. That's probably just under 25% of the total points required to stay up gained in 4 games.

That would be quite remarkable considering the recent past.

For this alone, I don't think we'll win.

We will have to be careful with what we do at the back no doubt about it, but Villa do give chances away in games and we need to be ready to take them.

No dcl .
Onana fit

Before the Arsenal game I agreed with a mate at work that we need 7 wins to stay up, which looked unlikely with us only having 3 in 20 at the time. We’ve already got 2 and if we beat Villa I’ll actually start to believe, as it will be a remarkable turnaround as you say.

I think the most likely result is a draw though.

Have faith.

I don think 1 goal wins this game on Saturday which is a worry as we dont score many

 

[blue in oxford]

would settle for a boring 1-0 win
we have shocking record against these

Onana fit

huge news, could make the difference

 

[Jokerdan]

Our priority is to gain as many points as possible from our remaining home fixtures. That has to be the focus...and we have some tough home games still to come.

Any points picked up on the road are an added bonus but I suggested a couple of weeks ago after the Arsenal game that three points out of every six...as an average (given we are going to lose games or drop points which we may be expecting to gain if our current turnround continues)...would see us comfortably safe.

But then again, every other time from 10th/12th down will be thinking exactly the same.

I really believe, however, that....no, I am not going to tempt saying it! We shall just have to wait and see. It's gonna be a hairem scarem rollercoaster of a ride from now on.

At this stage I’d settle for him scoring an own goal.
