Match Thread Everton v Nottingham Forest - Pre-Match Chat, Match Report & MotM Poll

[Bez2k2k]

Any coach welcomes organised?

Don’t even think Dyche likes it. He has the players drive in hours before the games I think.

Lucky to get a draw out of it they have pace .

And Morgan - Gibbs White and tactics that include how to score goals.

 

[GoldenToffee]

Only chance of scoring goals is set pieces / defensive errors / VAR mistakes.

I think it's absolutely shocking that McNeil is getting 90 minutes every game when he's been absolutely horrific the entire season.

Harrison has to start this, even if he's been crap all season too - he's been out the side and his replacement has been pitiful, so he needs to come back in.

If Danjuma is fit, get him in over McNeil, but obviously that won't happen.

Very fearful that Keane comes in for Branthwaite here.

Coleman, Young, Godfrey at right back, all crap and doesn't really matter which one is selected.

The rest of the side picks itself.

We don’t do the double over many teams!! In fact I don’t think we ever have done

I only read the first few pages of this so apologies if this is a point made elsewhere (but I haven't seen it).

People saying Forest will "sit in" or make it tough for us to break them down have clearly not watched them very often.

Gibbs-White, Elanga, Hudson-Odoi will be rubbing their hands together at the prospect of running at our slow, static defence. The way Palmer & Isaak have taken the mick just by running with the ball at us...we're so predictable, and if that's obvious to fans, you can guarantee Nuno will have had them working on getting their tricky players 1 vs 1 with ours.

Nervous.

Burnley last week. Treble in fact

Too much pace for us and Goodison will be a bag of nerves 0-2 Forest.

Got myself a last minute ticket for this, planning on doing the 10 hour round trip from Devon. I don't know why I keep putting myself through this

This is my prediction. Just can't see us scoring or creating anything. He has to change something. It's ridiculous going through the same motions every week

This only ends one way my friend.

This only ends one way my friend.

It doesn't have to,if the manager wakes up to the blindingly obvious.

 

[Bluebonic]

No mate you go and meet a nicer girl. I'm off to support Madrid

She’ll leave you skint then dump you for some Mediterranean bloke mate

They where very unlucky against Spurs but for a Wood sitter they'd have been leading at the break and I think would have gone on to win.

Morgan Gibbs White will pull the strings for these and they will bombard our Right with Hudson-Odoi.


I think Monday was very damaging for players to be honest,you really don't need a 6-0 defeat at this time of season especially when you're fighting for you life.

Lime street?

 

[John from Bootle]

Goodison will be a bag of nerves .

This is my big fear in all of this. No matter how bad things get, we always 'turn up' when it matters. My big fear this season is that the fans have just been through enough and there's just too much to worry about.

I hope to god though that we turn up in full, defiant, we shall not be moved mood. Not least because it's what the old lady deserves. Will haunt me to my dying days if the final days of Goodison see it sucked into a pit of despair and Championship football.

We simply have to turn up. It's what we do and the only thing we as fans can actually keep alive about OUR club.
