Match Thread Everton 3-0 Notts Forest. Sat 6th December

[Ged G]

Anyone know if there's anything going on in town this weekend? I'll set off at 9am if so

There is a game on

Good job you’ve got a 40 man squad that cost £400m to assemble isn’t it Sean. We’ve got two keepers and Eli Campbell on the bench as it stands. Woe is him though, as always. A familiar tale of gasdyching.

Harsh that. He was honest and gracious in his comments.

"You've won a European trophy? You???"

"Sure, you haven't?"

 

[knowing your history]

I honestly have no idea how we'll do in this one. I thought we'd get nothing from Man Utd and Bournemouth away and I was pretty confident going in to the game against Newcastle and was horribly wrong in all three cases. So, on that basis, I am going to predict that we will get absolutely battered by Sean Dyche's samba footballing Notts Forest side!

Way I see it Dyche won't want to get beat on his return and with the midweek wins I think both managers would be fine with a draw. Will be really difficult to get a foothold in midfield unless KDH has a worldly game.

Can see this being an extreme low block 0-0. Sort of game you forget ever happened within 20 minutes of getting back home.

They've got some quality players, massive fan of Gibbs-White and Anderson in particular, but I think if we score early and get the fans on side we could expose their bang average manager.

Apart from trying to make the narrative that he graciously stood down to allow Moyes to come in as a fresh face and revitalise us.

Where it was actually him saying he wasn’t up to it but refusing to stand down to get a massive payout.

The players dwindling? He had them playing like that from day 1.

Patterson back to give Dyche a slap ?

Our midfield is pretty light - Tim did a good job, I guess Garner has to adapt again and take that role with KDH. Alcaraz further forward.

Forest squad is decent enough, we will have to earn this one with grit but still have Ndiaye, Grealish to make the difference - maybe Barry breaks his duck.

Looking forward to seeing KDH and Garner in the pivot with Charley at the 10. Really do think we can cause some problems there even though we lose at lot on the right flank with JOB behind Illy

You had a smoke or something ?

Watching a bit of Cheech and Chong.
Marley playing in the background.

That was the most relaxed, not overly expressive post ive ever read..

With the injuries and suspensions , you know forest and co will be up for it.

Id take a draw bigtime

Looking forward to a game of simple like for like substitutions around the 70th minute mark

Abandoned by his owners by month 4, Dyche never got to go to the new ground, he spent his time as a selling manager, selling players to more fortunate teams.

 

[Pootsy]

Have we thought about McNeill slotting into the pivot with KDH and Alcaraz in the headless chicken roll?

We do play better with Garner at the back. Also leaves JOB at CB.

Their centre is far too strong, that's where the game will be won or lost.

McNeil and Alcaraz together will get run riot.
