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

[Ivo]

Before any of u get ur hopes up, u do realise we’re playing Burnley on a Monday right? Burnley play like Prime Barca on Mondays.

Quick little Everton quiz: What was the last game everton played on a Monday with fans?

Watford? Two all.

5-0 Iwobi with all five.

That’s ridiculous.....Burnley will definitely score

Winnable match vs. a bottom 3 club at home to go joint top ! Last year's Everton lose this with an abject display .....
Hoping for something different this year !

This is a proper test IMO. They will sit in which is different to the other teams we’ve played so far.

Eek, Monday night game after an international break. Burnley will be well organised, combative and time wasting from the first minute until the end.

We'll smash 'em, they'll score, but we'll do 'em.

Are you Bohemian by location (I am currently in Croatia) or, God forbid, a Bohs fan? If the latter, you must know Big Hughie.

What must it feel like to be a supporter of United, City or Chelsea, with the fantastic squads they have, RS,
Spurs, Foxes and probably Arse. when Arteta (The Rat) finally gets found out, are quite a way behind the
class. As much as I dislike Vieira, Palace were magnificent yesterday and their fans were like we used to be.
I don't blame our fans for anything, since 1990 our Chairmen and their choices have caused all of this.
I remember walking from the Hermitage (Not the one in ST Petersburg) to the ground or away games
and having 'Butterflies' of expectations and rarely being let down even when I was over 50 before 2000.
My only fear is that I will not get those 'Butterflies' again.

Agree with your line up except if Coleman would not play. Then i d play Godfrey RB and Keane with Mina

I'll have to disagree. If Godfrey plays it needs to be at CB. I think Kenny is less of a liability at RB than either Keane or Holgate are at CB. Godfrey offers no more going forward than Kenny so for me it's Kenny RB Godfrey CB. If Keane plays alongside Mina we end up having to sit deep again and that's embarrassing at home to Burnley. I want to be on the front foot from the beginning and I'm sure we will create chances.

Location and the Czech Bohemka 1905 version.

But I like the sound of Big Hughie, sort of fella that would take night out by the scruff of the neck.

Hughie is a staunch Evertonian but we disagree on Irish loyalty. I am by birth a Southsider and a Shamrock Rovers fan while Hughie is a Northsider Bohs fan. Probably the only Bozo that I actually like!!

Against Burnley I agree

 

[brieverton]

Regardless of the result, it's quite nice to be reasonably confident before a game that we'll play with intensity, intent, and the players will resemble a team of sorts.

Carlo who?

 

[bernie inn]

Be interesting to see how this goes compared to the 2nd half of last season chance of joint top (albeit 3 games in) against a team we should be beating,

We'll win easily. This is a more organised, more resilient Everton.

And no Ziggy...

The positives just keep piling up.
