Match Thread Everton vs Liverpool, Goodison Park, Oct 4th, 2015

[Saint Domingo]

Not sure why we are starting with the same team that was abysmal for the first half v WBA.

 

[Whitty]

Naisy has a couple goals against them doesn't he? I'm OK with it, there will be space today so Rom shouldn't have to do much hold up play.

I'm not sure there will be. I think they'll sit deep and look to counter.

I've gone from being super confident to bottling it. Stones and Coleman are massive losses.

 

[Walken]

I'm sure for the money we paid we could've got a solid British centre half in. Someone who I'd at least feel more confident with today.

We are where we are though, let's hope he does us proud.

we maybe could not afford to do both, roberto went for what he saw as the long term option, i'm pleased with him for that

 

[R.Reddington]

1-2, Sturridge saves Rodgers' job at Liverpool

 

[FTY]

Good on Leon for taking that question

 

[streeky]

Our bench doesn't fill me with much hope. C'mon barkley, lukaku, deulofeu tear these ones a new one

look at the rs bench it's a lot worse than ours

 

[Whitty]

I wish he'd have been honest about the players not being fit. Fans wouldn't feel disappointed to see them missing then

 

[paulbefc]

Looking at those line ups I see them having the edge.

WTF is he doing not playing Kone form the off?

Also, his comments on players injured cant ever be taken seriously again. Stones and Coleman obviously nowhere near fitness in the past few weeks.

Pissed off with that.

He did say a few days ago that neither or them were training normally yet, so he never suggested it was likely they'd play really.

 

[SpurtingLesbian]

Naismith for Kone is more about giving Galloway some protection more than anything else. Kone will come on later once they've run out of puff. The other side is more about pinning them back with attacks.

I can see Del coming in for a lot of heavy treatment today, I just hope Bobby has already been on at the ref to point it out (not that it will make any difference considering who it is :-( )

 

[AlE]

Carragher being a sly git here

 

[BirkenheadBlue]

Good on Leon for taking that question

What question?

Naisy has a couple goals against them doesn't he? I'm OK with it, there will be space today so Rom shouldn't have to do much hold up play.

I don't mind Naismith, just think Kone knits everything together. Also, hope Naismith doesn't get too hot headed.

 

[Whitty]

He did say a few days ago that neither or them were training normally yet, so he never suggested it was likely they'd play really.

He gave all the cr@p about them 'responding well' though

 

[AlE]

What question?

Carragher basically asked Ross how he'll handle it when a bigger club comes after him. Cheeky ***

 

[davek]

He did say a few days ago that neither or them were training normally yet, so he never suggested it was likely they'd play really.

Last week before the WBA game he said they were close for that one.

It's the one thing that does my head in with him. He needs to just tell it like it is and get the news out there. It's not helpful at all.
