[Groucho]

Nah, I think he's called Idrissa Gueye or something.

He's bang average I know that much.

The majority would disagree with you on this.

Insane degree of pessimism on this forum it seems.

Goes with the territory when a team is in a slump like we have been in for over two months now.

It would be a funny type of fan whom was not in a pessimistic mood approaching a game on the back of our recent form.

Southampton will be well up for this, Ronald had better hope he can motivate the players better than he did against Swansea.

2-1 to Everton.

Indeed he is and I respect your and @davek's opinion, although personally I believe there are more suitable options in our squad for the role.

Barry and Williams for example due to their own experience in the role, attitude and general experience and composure.

yep, Williams all day long for me.

Could say that half the time,never feel confident when other teams attack us,we sometimes dont tackle and just watch them run at us with ease

So true mate.

 

[maccavennie]

need to get stuck in here and from the first whistle look like we want it

COYB!!!

 

[Neiziro]

Not feeling confident at all - I'm even less confident for this than I was for Chelsea.

 

[eurosrees]

It feels like a while since Rom has turned in one of those unplayable performances, one of those would be very welcome.

 

[Khalekan]

I wonder how good the service to Lukaku will be today. Lennon's never been great for assists, Barkley's got a handful of assists for Lukaku in over 3 seasons together and Bolasie hasn't been on form recently. I hope we don't get stuck in our own half, trying and failing to counter.

On the upside we have plenty of pace to counter them with and Lennon's pressing is an asset. There'll be no Mirallas/Deluofeu-like jogging around from him.

Yip....just loads of headless chicken type running.

And his "pressing" wasn't an "asset" last week......he was anonymous.

I was naive enough to go into the Chelsea game thinking a point at least was on

 

[The Esk]

Fast start absolutely necessary - COYBS!

 

[Goat]

BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP

Thats the sound of the bed wetters reversing in 2 hours.

 

[Ballyfermot]

I use to manage Southamptom

But ok,

I manage Everton now.

I'd say it reflects our current form.
