Match Thread Everton V Liverpool. Sun April 19. 2pm

[when i score we riot]

We go into this game in 10th place which seems a bit harsh

If we win this, we're out of the weekend in 6th, above Chelsea, two points behind the vermin in 5th.

Been a long time since our own fate was in our hands like this.

And there's been a very very big lot of times when we bottled situations like these.

Has there ever been a situation where we haven’t bottled it? Combine that with Moyes pathological inability to beat Liverpool no matter how crap they are and tomorrow is only going one way.

That's what makes me think we'll not win. That and our history of not winning the derby

At last, a more positive post about tomorrow!

He's won 4 games against them while at everton he draws more than he loses it's his record at a field that's abysmal , so I think we have a chance

Results generally went our way today, and the kopites at work have been bricking it all week. It's in our hands, but we've been here many times over the decades. New stadium, new era. If ever there was a time to shift momentum, this is it.

Don't really buy this bottling it narrative when it's pretty much just down to us being an inconsistent mid table team.

Also throw in that Moyes has 4 times as many wins as any other manager since Walter Smith. Granted he's had a few more goes than the others but I don't think it's Moyes who's the problem. Just the fact that unfortunately they are a very good team and for a lot of that time we haven't been.

Don't play ultra defensive and take the game to them similar to how we played against Chelsea and I think a win or at least a draw is very feasible

Chelsea 64% possession that game to our 36%. Don't be expecting to go out and dominate tomorrow, but we do have to be assertive and take the game to them when the chance presents itself.

We're miles better when we don't have the ball.

They've got to be chomping at the bit surely? Great day of results and a win puts us in an incredible position.

It's nice going into this without the fear of relegation in the background, just hope we go at them properly from the off and not let them dictate any tempo and kill the atmosphere quickly.
