Match Thread Everton v Leeds United - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[Saint Domingo]

Just can’t see where the goals are coming from, but unfortunately Leeds do create, and I think that will be the difference. Unfortunately 2-0 Leeds

In the 2 games against Arsenal and Liverpool under Dyche we could have legitimately scored 6 goals. I’d be worried if we weren’t making chances but we’ve carved out 6 very good ones agaisnt two good teams. The finishing isn’t there, but then again it’s not there for Leeds either, hence why we’re both where we are in the table .

nice to be in multiple cup finals over the last couple of years

You're wrong RR mate. Please stop that. Have a discussion with me. But don't be accusing me of that.

 

[Thomasc]

We are properly turd and deserve to be relegated after that pathetic performance the other night.

Lose this and it will pretty much confirm relegation for this bunch of clowns masquerading as footballers.

 

[gonetomorrow]

We'll win 2-1 in a nail-biting finish.

 

[Jimmy Grimble]

In yesterday's presser Dyche took the mickey out of a hack suggesting that, so it's probably unlikely

The old double bluff

Tomorrow is as important as it gets in terms of a single game. Can this team replicate the form of Arsenal or will they continue down the road of ineptitude and incompetence. Lose tomorrow and, while I fully accept there is an awful long way to go, it will be very difficult to save ourselves, even with a win it will still be difficult.
I think we will win 1-0, can’t see us getting 2 goals in the one game so if Leeds score the best we can hope for is a draw. Playing without a forward line makes life very difficult. All down to the Board.

indeed it will be interesting to see what Dyche can do against a lesser side. It showed under Lampard, it showed at Anfield when it was 2-0 that when we are given the initiative to play we dont seem to have a clue

Everyone here is correct. Leeds create goals, so we're cooked.



Arsenal have never scored this season.

The inflation of that atrocious Leeds team on here is laughable.

If we get out tactics and motivation right we can make short work of these like we did to a much better Leeds team last season at Goodison.

How was it a much better Leeds team?

This will be the first home game I've been to in a while. Currently on the train to Lime St. My son is wearing his Everton shirt, and in the seat in front of him is a grown man in full RS kit. I've done my civic duty and reported it via see it/say it/sorted.

Everton beat Leeds United 3-1 in this Zenith Data Systems Cup Area Final, Northern Section, second leg played at Goodison Park on the 21st March 1991.

Think it might be worth giving 4-4-2 a go. Doucoure out for Maupay, actually give Simms someone to attempt to flick the ball onto because at Anfield he was on a hiding to nothing.

We don't need a second striker. We just need the wide players and a midfielder to be willing to get up in support and run behind. That means we need high energy and lots of effort from those players

We aren't good enough to play 2 strikers in my opinion, nor do we have 2 good strikers.

I wish I had your confidence.

You`re also forgetting that Leeds are in a false position and should actually be in a Champions League place.
