Match Thread Chelsea v Everton - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[badloaf]

We need to get right into them from the off and, no matter what the score at half time, come out after the break and do the same again. They’ve got a far better squad than us but they’re not settled yet so going at them hard is our best shot.

I couldn’t care less how we get the points. We can worry about style next season.

Reading that last sentence feels like Groundhog Day..

0-0

I'd take this all day

 

[Shibbywiggles]

Has 0-0 written all over it doesn't it

That’d do me!

Spot on this, looking forward to it. I had the Davies Maupay onslaught to come after 89 mins to put the game to bed.

You're the only one...

Would be great to somehow some way find a way to scrape a point here.

Yes, Chelsea are dire at the moment. However, have you seen us on our travels lately, bar Forest?

0-0 or 1-1 would be an excellent result.

Unfortunately, for us, Potter seems to have settled on a system that long standing Chelsea fans have been calling for for weeks. That said, Thiago being a likely absentee might throw a spanner into that.

Are there any good Everton-friendly pubs around Stamford Bridge for pre-game pints?

 

[GoldenToffee]

Sorry but this is an Expected Defeat and we will lose it. I don't think we'll get smashed like against Arsenal but 2-0 seems about right.

Chelsea are hitting their stride, they are having many chances per game, and I fully expect them to take all of them against us. Fear this could be a cricket score

Objection.

Facts not in evidence.

The White Horse - 2 mins from Parsons Green. The Fiesta Havana - near Fulham Broadway - certainly used to cater for away fans but I’m not sure if it’s still going.
