….if my theory re pre-match pessimism is accurate, we should win 4-0.

Rafael mentioned in his presser that there are 5 players isolating, James is one, but he wouldn't be drawn on the other 4 names. Do we know who they are yet?

I love that our game against city in December was cancelled because they had 5 players out with covid, even though they have one of the biggest, most expensive squads in the league.

Anyway, I dont like the fact they have a debutant striker, he's bound to have a great game. Hoping we can win, this is basically a 6 pointer, game 1.

Good excuse for the manager if we don’t win.

After zero correct predictions last season.... 2 - 1 to us, Gray to score.

[larbert toffee]

4-0
Saints at their lowest ebb since they returned to the Prem. Relying on Walcott to score/assist, Ings gone, Ward-Prowse crocked, sh*t goalkeeper(s).
It's fill yer boots time.

This is Everton they're playing mate.

Hope Gbamin makes the squad, this of needs to break his run of bad luck, one thing after another with him unfortunately, just wanted him to have a good pre season and come into the team and it’s disrupted with Covid isolation.

I wonder what Salmon Rondon is thinking ahead of his first properr tour of Goodison this afternoon.
