Match Thread Everton v Leicester City - Preview, Report and MotM Poll

[Toffeelover]

Players will be too tired to play!!!!!!!!!!! Just ask Silva.

BTW Vardy is a voodoo for us!

 

[Billefc]

They’re in a poor run of form so I fully expect that to end. Silva may as well start with his 7 attackers and bring on defenders as we concede to mix it up a bit

Before yesterday, they had just beaten Chelsea and City, I long for us to have a poor run of form like that !

2-3 Leicester win

 

[brieverton]

It's the sort of game we'll win and all will be well again.

That's a concern of sorts - it's not the disappointment of losing its getting sucked back in by winning.

Danger territory for Silva though - nothing much to be gained by a home win here but a defeat is a knife in the back. Just one knife but they all add up.

They (EFC) won't make it easy but I'll say 2-1 win.

Lose-win-lose-win. Love them-love them not.

12:30 on New Years Day is a pisser.

 

[LEONARD]

Following another piss poor performance, EITC will announce an new and exciting initiative.

Everton will be setting up a 10 room retirement home in Kirkdale for distressed lighthouse keepers.

What a club!!!!!

Crikey, do we have to endure us again so soon, enough to drive me back to drinking these clowns this month.

I've just stopped drinking too. Got my bottles of 'St Peters Without' for tomorrow night. The last thing I want this News Years Day is a hangover!

 

[TyphooToffee]

We'll win this

My thoughts exactly. The first double of the season but not the last.

 

[TyphooToffee]

It's the last of the ridiculous Christmas fixtures. We are playing twice a week while other leagues enjoy a winter break.

There will be lots of tired legs on both sides. It will be survival of the fittest - or perhaps the luckiest.

And then we can look forward to Lincoln on Saturday - who should Silva pick for that?

Won't be our strongest line up, that's for sure, but shouldn't need to be.

 

[TyphooToffee]

Who even cares anymore?

I for one.

 

[TyphooToffee]

It's Goodison, it's Evertonians, will be flat regardless of kick off time, league position or any other circumstance imaginable

Whenever I go to away games there is always lots of noise and a great atmosphere among traveling Blues. Shame if the home games are quiet.

Given the likely second string run out against Lincoln, we should be throwing out our best (theoretical...) XI here. My pick would be:

Pickford

Coleman*
Keane
Mina
Digne

Gana
Gomes

Bernard
Siggy
Richarlison

DCL

*I’d actually advocate playing JJK but don’t think that’s going to happen.

Richarlison’s relative disappearing act has come at CF so I would like to see him back out wide. I realise DCL isn’t pulling up massive trees himself but he may do better with a good 3 behind him.

I just really, REALLY want Walcott out of the team.

No Zouma..Vardy will kill Mina and Keane.

12.30 New Years Day and nearly all the other teams are playing the night after,yet another example of weakness from those above to let this happen.....we have had the least amount of recovery time out of all the premiership teams

 

[Jamo Martinez]

Before yesterday, they had just beaten Chelsea and City, I long for us to have a poor run of form like that !

They only beat top 6 teams. We'll be fine.
