Match Thread Everton 2-4 Brentford. Sun Jan 4th. 3pm

[CielosGrises]

Expectations are up which doesn't seem to suit us - and realistically we are a bit of a patched up side.

That said, we need to win these to progress and Moyes and staff seem to find ways.

A positive is Dibling and McNeil competing and Grealish back at some point in the game.

 

[Jamo Martinez]

Happy New Year everyone.
Hope we can Kick off with a win.

Especially against peceived "lesser" opposition. When the expectation matches results I'll know we've probably turned a corner.

I think he'll move Jake back to right back, Keane centre half, Mcneil as the 10 with Grealish and Dibling on the wings. If he wants more energy in that 10 spot he'll put Rohl there and Mcneil shoved to the right in place of Dibling.

I'd like to see Jake stay in the centre, his height in those areas is essential and he doesnt 2nd guess what balls he needs to attack as he's more in control centrally.

If Dibling starts, I'd love to see him really up his output in an attacking sense and look a goal threat.

Everton should win this without much trouble. Barry to score at least a goal.

Mate.

 

[StreetEndBlue]

I'm looking forward to giving that RS Jordan Henderson a good booing.

 

[evertony]

Yeah, he was left back

Left there more like.

Tough game this. Not a badly organised outfit by any stretch of the imagination.


And Schade is a smooth operator.

Stick McNeil central this time..
Him, Jack and Dibling all got the football intelligence..
He could easily switch up with jack on occasions when attacking.

Think Rohl would get lost in that position..

Hope we win but there is nothing to say we “should” be winning or even drawing this. They are perfectly capable of getting a result against us even if we play well.

JOB has to stay next to Tarkowski.

Imagine being a brentford player coming to that new stadium and compared to their tinpot.

 

[Canuck Darryl]

It should be interesting. Both teams, sitting back in defensive positions, waiting to get a goal on the counter.
First goal wins, and we have home field advantage ( whatever that means).

Sadly lost on posters under 50 that one
