Match Thread Newcastle 0-1 Everton, Sun, 25 May, 16.00

It’lL be interesting to see how Moyes motivates the team for this one, given that the table position is fixed and most of the players will know their contract situation by now.

I hope it's not on the beach. Yes we cannot win any more prize money, but there will be players in their final ever game for us wanting to go out with a victory. Pickford won't want to lose to these, and it's the strikers' last chance to stake a claim for next season if there is any indecision about whether any of them are being kept, sold or released. Hope we go up there and do a good ol' fashioned job on them: 2-0 to us with a Doucoure goal just after half time and a Michael Keane drop kick into the postage stamp area of the goal after 90+6 minutes.

Also there will be a packed away end and the players are supposed to be professional

would love it if we stopped them getting champions league

Pickford absolutely despises them with a passion. There will be no greater incentive for him than to cost them a CL place and then go on his jollies absolutely buzzing with himself.

 

[Toffeeslam]

This is a nothing game for us which will mean getting tonked by them.

I just get 5-0 at the emirates vibe under Lampard with us on the beach and them chasing a Champions league place.

Hope not

Can imagine his grid at the final whistle if he costs them a CL spot.

Dread this game. Could be a thrashing in front of a triumphant full house with some of our players on their last appearance for Everton. I know the result means nothing to us but I hope we try not to get battered.

Last season?

We couldn't possibly move up or down any places on the last day last season? fair enough.

Hope not

i remember when we lost 5-0 to man city when we still could have got into Europe on the final day of the season and they had already won the league

 

[Benny Blue]

Already heard Moyes saying last week the season wasn't over after the last game at Goodison. Getting the players motivated for this one and a result would be a very good sign for the manager.

He's a brilliant manager, and he'll give our club back after what Moshiri has done to Everton over one of the worst periods in our history.

 

[Toffe3m4n]

May as well go 'full strength' for it really. No reason not to, despite it being a dead rubber. It's not like the squad is flush with other options anyway..

Can't see the barcodes missing out on CL .
Whatever happens.

 

[GoldenToffee]

Not really a decent defensive unit able to be fielded tbh but this might be as good as we can do.

Pickford
Patterson-O'Brien-Keane-Mykolenko
Gueye-Garner
Alcaraz
McNeil-Beto-Ndiaye​

 

[Groucho]

Ok so now this does not matter in the slightest, we’ve secured 13th place prize money and cannot reach 12th, I’d play Keane and Pickford up front with Begovic in goal.

It’d either be the best game played outfield by a goalie or the quickest red card ever.

Their forums were full of 'last game of season to send them down' when the fixtures were out. Wouldnt it be ironic if we stopped them getting CL next season?
