Match Thread Everton vs West Ham United - Preview, Match Report & MotM Poll

[Milkman]

Not a chance we win this game with all the additional crap surrounding it. We are set up perfectly to be the baddies on the end of some revenge as West Ham “do it for Lizzie” and sing the national anthem as the players trudge off at full time. Mark Noble is pictured in the away end wrapped in an England flag in floods of tears, which goes on to be an iconic image of English football

Noble is still queuing somewhere around Croydon so is likely to miss the trip

They are having a bit of an inconsistent start to the season in the league and were unlucky against Chelsea not to get a draw. If we keep it tight at the back, which we generally have done so far, then I think we've enough going forward to punish them, particularly on the counter. Also, if we can get in behind them then we'll cause them problems.

They played away in Europe last night. Always tricky to then go away from home a few days later and pick up points.

We should be much fresher so need to get at them from the start and push the intensity.

I think we will win, but also will be a bit of a worry if we don't...

I think we will win, but also will be a bit of a worry if we don't...

the camp will be firmly split between those pointing to the Benitez streak and those in the "he needs time" camp

Anyone else reeling at the last line not rhyming with the first two

How about...

Some said that Chico's a loon
When promised a preview'd be 'soon'
There were ditties and rhymes
That reminded of times
When the dish ran away with the spoon

Not much sense but at least it's a true limerick

You just know Dom is gonna get rushed back and get injured again.

We "should" get something from this being at Goodison and all. No Yarmelenko to terrorise us again. Only one enforced change so Beggy in for Jordan. DCL starts....on the bench for me. Stick with Maupay.

 

[Mr PEN86]

Tarks or Coady for the armband. Either will do

Yeah good team. DCL, Allan, Doucoure Garner on the bench, there should be enough to change things if we need to keep pushing for a winner.

Bit worried that we don’t really have the options outwide if Gray or Gordon start blowing. Move Iwobi or Maupay out there is probably best we have.

That's right. We have to aim to hit them hard from the off, an early goal in our favour would settle a lot of nerves and would hopefully give us the impetus to secure the win.

Subs Bench for Sunday could have Garner, Calvert Lewin, Keane,Davies, Coleman,McNeill, Vinagre ,Doucoure, Allan,Mills and a goalkeeper.

11 players, maybe nobody will notice.

It'll be nice to have some good options from the bench for a change!

Captain Alex Iwobi

 

[Mashtray]

2-0 to the evs.

Counter attacking magic, Gray and Iwobi with his first goal on the season
