West Ham v Everton. 7th Nov at 1500.

[Bob Elstone]

Didn't Collins get sent off recently, I was hoping he was banned..

He is a really really really poor premiership player. Always hanging around the poor teams. The blokes a liability.

Infact, if he is banned we should contact the FA and see if they'll rescind it.

West Ham are a quite recent addition to my long list of hated clubs.

I'm utterly petrified that they'll pray on Howard and our inability on crosses.

8-0 Everton

 

[TomDixie]

Howard
Coleman Stones Mori Galloway
McCarthy Barry
Deulofeu Barkley Kone
Lukaku

Robles, Browning, Gibson, Osman, Lennon, Mirallas, Naismith

​

Galloway will add a bit of height to our defence at least.

The concern is West Ham doing everything they can to make it a game based around set pieces, with a deep defence and tight spaces, when really we want them coming at us in an open, end to end, entertaining fixture as we would absolutely ruin them (probably )

Up the Toffees.

 

[Verbal Kint]

Gonna be facing an aerial bombardment here, they will obviously have noticed our inability to concede from set pieces. They will score twice but I can see us doing the same.

2-2

just like Sunderland did with Fat Sam in charge?

No like West Ham will if they have that barge pole up top.

unlike Fletcher who can actually head a ball?

Literally the only thing Carroll can do is head the ball and cause a nuisance against a team that struggles badly with that type of thing.

 

[Boss_Blue]

Any preview containing plane references is a good preview.

 

[AndyC]

Spot on Chico, we really need to adopt this ruthless, mean, nasty, bury 'em attitude more often... Like every game !!
When we play at pace on the counter, we look very potent.
Pace kills.
Ask Arsene... Bayern ran the Gooners stupid last night.

 

[CahillsCornerFlag]

Have to say I'm worried about this one. There no way we'll keep a clean sheet with Carroll against our centre backs, not to mention their big grocky centre backs from corners. Where art thou Joel Robles?

But then if we play on the counter like we did against Sunderland we could be in business.

They'll either cruise to a 3-0 due to calamitous keeping/defending crosses or we'll win 3-2.

 

[Jimmy Flangemoth]

I think Wet Spam might nick this one at their gaff.

 

[toffeejack]

that's classy.

 

[Verbal Kint]

just like Sunderland did with Fat Sam in charge?

Like West Brom did and Liverpool I could go on... It's an obvious weakness. Aerial bombardment is inevitable against a team containing Andy Carroll.

Nothing stirs the spirits like Everton giving someone a good tonking.

Good opening sentence.
May read the rest of it some time.
