Match Thread Everton v Aston Villa - Preview, Match Report & MotM Poll

I'm still having difficulties fathoming that we sold digne due to strife with a manager who was fired three days later... what a calamitous clown show. Anyway I hope we go direct at digne with some pace and exploit his weakness since hes opposition now

Thanks for posting that, Mate. I liked Duncs answer when he was asked if the players know what it takes to play for this club

Ferguson on the touchline today.

Well look as you say his weakness. He's not the biggest loss in the world if you are advocating focusing our attack down his side.

Hoping for some nice surprising team changes. As much as he probably knows Coleman sucks can’t see him dropping the captain in his first game.

Ferguson's unbridled energy does jar people which I see as a positive. I remember the last time he was caretaker ,my Chelsea supporting roommate was seriously irked because of his revelry. He was grumbling about how he didnt win a trophy so why was he running around the pitch, he was pretty rankled

have a scary feeling he'll start rondon but i really hope i'm wrong

what if Rondon scored 2 today, in our 4-0 win. It's a funny old game.
Ps........haven't taken my tablets yet. Make that 1 goal. Our opener. Villa caught out laughing. And we then take him off and go on to win 4-0.

Agreed, but no doubt Digné will go and produce his best Premier League performance of the last twelve months or so.

Valid point, I'm more peeved at the circumstances honestly.

Will never happen but would like to see a back 4 of Patterson yerry branthwaite Godfrey.


Keane should be finished, Mykolenko is nowhere near ready and Coleman is Coleman

Wouldn’t shocked to see Godfrey taken out of the firing line myself.

Would pretty much have the same but think i would have onyango maybe gbamin instead townsend to have 3 natural cm. I do think gordon could be a great player to come off the bench

Gbamin hasn't really done much. Injured a lot I know. So would he up for the intensity that I'm hoping Everton show today. Although I agree that we need bodies in midfield today. Bodies that will be up to the job. That's why I don't trust Gomes. No passengers today.
And as much as I like Gordon. He just might be the player who misses out today. But as you say , he could do a job from the bench.
We will soon know the team. So let's rock and roll. Up The Toffees.

For the first time this season the noise when Z cars is played will be special . UTFT

Hate these early games. Only 30 minutes for the team to be announced. Just seems wrong
