Everton v Leicester City. 22nd Feb at 14.05.

[Fansince1988]

People keep thinking we won't go down. We have tough fixtures we can't win a game and the Europa to me is a hinderance I would rather stay in the pl.

I think we are just lucky there is Villa,Qpr bellow us to be fair Leicester and Burnley are unlikely to get enough points.

 

[potato]

we need 12 points from the following games

away to arsenal - 0
away to stoke - 0
home to newcastle - 1
away to QPR - 1
home to southampton - 0
away to swansea - 0
home to burnley - 3
home to man utd - 0
away to aston villa - 1
home to sunderland - 3
away to west ham - 0
home to spurs - 0

i can only see us getting 9 at best

we are getting relegated face the facts

Good to see Gibson back. Pity he got injured....

just joking.

The Law of Karma for RM: You treated Robles poorly and your class favourite Taleban Tim shits on you.

 

[The Esk]

For months we complained that Lukaku was not getting enough service. If we can serve up 7 or 8 chances a game for him for the rest of the season he will finish with 20 plus goals. A run of games for Gibson would help in this regard - much as I like Besic we get the ball forward much more quickly with Gibson in the side.

As on Thursday so much more involved in the game, a very good sign.

HOWARD OUT!

You're joking, right? Don't blame Howard for this debacle, blame the guys upfront for one inept strike after another. In fact, the attempts at goal stat itself (18 shots, 3!!! on target) is appalling against a team we should have been taking three points off.

 

[toffeejack]

I dont get why Besic was subbed we look terrible

i don't think he's fully fit atm.

 

[paulus]

Who saiud turning point against that League 1 team Young Boys , i see all blaming Howard and yes Robles is Better but i see and now really see problem in menager.

That's a really pessimistic prediction list

 

[banno]

Napoli would own us.

Like they owned Young Boys in Switzerland

 

[deipnosophist]

A lot of people getting in a flap over Timmy (the US Secretary of Defence). I agree he occasionally has his moments, but Bobby has clearly stated he is our No1 keeper.

 

[Toffeelover]

Dreadful utterly dreadful, can't beat a side sitting at the bottom who have up to today lost 16 games out of 26.

Regardless of Rom's misses, Howard cost us the game and 2 points like quite a few other games.

 

[daz4matty]

Ah come on you definitely ain't going down. At least 6 worse teams in the league

There are teams worse than us but we can't win.
We are scared of playing.
We set up with 2 defensive midfielders and 1 striker against 5 defenders.
We are deffo in the mix

 

[Dozbik]

I have long said that Spurs and the RS are the two teams we must avoid. But I cannot see any of the continental teams causing us much bother

I'd rather avoid the Spanish teams too.

 

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

I know Martinez deserves the flak for dropping Robles, and for his tactics, but if Lukaku doesn't miss 2 sitters, we win, if Howard doesn't cock up, we win.

i hope to holy Jehoshaphat you are kidding!!!!!!!!!!!!!

even with all the misses we would still have won 2-0. they haven't had a meaningful shot on target all game
