Match Thread Everton v Leicester City - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[TyphooToffee]

I don't know if anyone's mentioned it already but talk sports sports news presenter said that West Ham will remain 4th until tomorrow night when Spurs play. Obviously, if and when we beat Leicester tonight, we will go 4th. I've just sent them a text telling them just that

Match day so on goes an Everton shirt.

I put that picture on Instagram saying that I will cover it up with a jumper if I go out because as a 68-year old man I don't want to be seen wearing a football shirt. I tagged someone who is the mother of one of the Mersey Girls who is a Liverpool fan. Talk about leading with your chin, she said an Everton shirt should always be covered up!

I forgot about that famous scouse wit! It was she who bought my portrait of Robert Rinder

Just hope we shutdown Maddison. Bored of the gushing recently from every outlet.

Would be suprised if we see Godfrey & Digne down the left and Holgate & Iwobi down the right to be able to go into a 5 at the back when out of possession, similar to the system and wolves and that could mean richarlison in the floating role. Might not be what were used to but would defiantly provide height for set pieces which on their forums seems there biggest concern. Hopeful for a win but need a good performance. games coming in quick succession now so he may opt in this more defensive system to opt for james of the bench in second half.

My team is Pickford, Holgate, Mina, Keane, Godfrey, Iwobi, Davies, Gomes, Digne, Richarlison, DCL.
2-1 win Mina and DCL

I'm thinking he may go for that

But Siggurdson will defo play though and James....so...

Thing that bothers me is Newcastle's awful recent record.

Why?

If i were carlo i'd go pickford in goal, a back four of holgate mina keane and digne, godfrey and davies in midfield, iwobi james richy and then DCL up top.

I think Holgate would be better suited in centre mid, so swap him with Godfrey and I think that looks decent.

We will be a huge threat on corners and free kicks.

Price for a Mick Keggers hat trick?

Another "pivotal" game. They're coming thick and fast. A must win game if we're to stay in touch with teams that have played three league games since our last effort.
Looking for a win obviously, but will subscribe to the "if you can't win, don't lose".
Going 2-0 a set piece and a DCL special.

500-1 I reckon.

2 goals from set pieces on Sunday and Keggers didn’t even play. Imagine how many we’ll get tonight with him in the side. Worth a few quid!

You'd get decent odds i reckon on a brace for Keane or Everton scoring 2 or 3 from set pieces mate.

Good grief, Lawrenson has predicted us to win.

This game is only the 4th he has predicted us to win this season though lol
West brom/Brighton/Fulham and tonight are his only wins
