Get rar up these mutants Everton!

With God we shall do valiantly; it is he who will tread down our foes.

Got a horrible feeling the manager maybe out of his depth and bring Barry back into the team, the problem is we need to keep the energy up and he's cost us so many points over last few seasons by slowing the tempo right down, this isn't the game for that as we could easily see the rs settle into a pattern if we aren't into their faces.

For me Gueye and Mccarthy have to play and I can understand Barry offers a bit of snide I'd rather him not play and bring him on towards end for Ross if we are in last ten and closing out a game.

I think the energy and pressing of the opposition that Gana and macca gave the team last week was instrumental in us getting the job done. It would be footballing suicide to put Barry back in the team as he hasn't got the legs to get amongst their ball players and deny them space to operate. Barry should only be seen in the team. near the end of the game, as hopefully a way of seeing the game out from a winning position.

Gutted it's a night game - Normally reserve the derby for a nice stroll in the countryside

I have only one prediction to make...

If we lose, @davek will be here as if he had never been away on Tuesday morning

 

[orly]

We are going to win comfortably, Lukaku with at least two.

 

[bullybeef]

All I will say is that a win for the blues is long overdue.

I had a dream.....

An angel looked at me and gave me a dog.The dog had a rabbit's head. Then, we were all on a flight with 'Billy the Kid' and a clown. Seconds later...I was walking alone,listening to the waterfall.......I awoke, legged it to the bog and did a wee just in time.



Anyway, back to the footy.


These are gash, let's do them.

Last few games at goodison have been a draw, that is minimum I expect if this club has any ambition, Koeman needs to demand a performance of his players and we must fight.

I would take a draw to keep momentum up as we have a nice run of games before we 'spend in Jan' I really hope the players do not rest on their laurels and go at these from the word off as we are slipping down the table now and can easily be 11th again coming into January (Conveniently another excuse to not spend as 'nobody wan'ts to come' was the shout peddled in summer)


These players need to stand up and be counted even if they are playing for a move, Koeman should have these players motivated up for the game but the are massive question marks over the squads fitness if they can't play well for 90 mins but instead play in bursts, Williams looked like he was blowing after first 60 mins and kept kneeling down when ball was out of play I noticed from my seat.

Hope.

A four letter word without which the human race would cease to function.

When Pandora opened her box and all the troubles in the world jumped out, she slammed it shut just in time to stop one item escaping.

That item was "hope", Chris.

So don't worry about it being false hope.....any hope is better than no hope

It will make the next 21 hours more bearable

Please no Barry tomorrow we need legs in the centre of that pitch ... keep the same 11 as the arsenal game except RFM for Jags
