Well you can but I get the point.

Russell Martin has similar vibes to Gary O'Neill.

The kind of guy you don't want helping your drunk sister get in the taxi

Big Saturday for the relegation candidates. We were poor against them in the league cup though, which is a worry, but hoping for result. Fingers crossed Dom can bag a few for once. Surely Branthwaite to start if he's fit

Wouldn't take the league cup game into account too much. Both starting teams were vastly changed for that game. I'm more confident of a decent performance away from home than at Goodison. Think we win this.

Great opportunity to pull further clear of the foot of the table against a team without a PL win. Need to put the strongest eleven out and go for the win. Shame we have Sean “Call me negative” Dyche at the helm

Never seem to capitalise on opportunities to pull away from the bottom 3 in recent seasons. Hopefully today be different

Southampton have one point after nine games and have lost the last four.

We're unbeaten in five games.

A decent win for the Blues (even if we go behind).

If Dyche picks his favourite mates today & fails, there will be meltdown on here, & he needs to go if he plays Harrison & Doucs .... plus no adequate replacement for O'Neil.... sadly I think this will be the case -

They’re nailed on to start, he’ll use the excuse of not prem fit for not starting Lindstrom, same old guff from him week in week out, sick of him.

Not enough time on the grass

I think he's gonna go with Branthwaite and Keane today.

I think he's gonna go with Branthwaite and Keane today.

I think that might be a decent pairing, Tarks has been a bit off this season so why not, Dare I say that Keane has been ok last few outings.

Step up Keane with a 40 yard volley into his own net

I think he's gonna go with Branthwaite and Keane today.

Surely Branthwaite starts?

It would be Everton not to capitalise on this opportunity to pull away from the relegation battle early and instead hand Soton their first 3 pointer of the campaign. It is hard to see it happening logically but there is that special something about being an Everton fan that gives you a nagging fear at the back of your mind.

It would all be on Dyche if we lose here.

regardless - UTFT!!!!
