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

As for the game I think you'll sneak it 2-1 with neither team playing particularly well. We'll start well without taking our chances and then concede just before half time. You'll score again at around 70 minutes. we'll get one back with 10 minutes to go, dominate until the final whistle but won't get the equaliser

think we should give it a go at FA Cup this year. I hope Marco doesnt play a weak side as he did with League Cup

This 100%

We HAVE to rotate our team when we get the opportunity, otherwise we will just knacker out our first XI for the second half of the season. If our second string can’t put away a League Two side, we deserve to go out of the cup, tbf.

Another game, another disappointment.
The 7th place trophy is probably out of our reach this season lads.

COYB!

Our 2nd string would lose. The players are not good enough to beat mighty Lincoln.
Along the lines of Stek, Jags, Kenny, Baines, Keane, Schnides, Davies, Dowell, DCL, Lookman, Cenk

They might get a draw to be fair.

Ok, sneak a 1-0 home win.

Sounds like a world class performance from us so I will take that. Can I request the goalscorers for Everton as well

Rest players for Lincoln.

League was over when we drew with Newcastle and Watford.

It's FA Cup or nothing.

My only concern with the FA Cup is that its now become more important for the top 6 since Man City have essentially monopolised the league.

Teams like Chelsea, Spurs, Arsenal and Utd will be going all out to win it as they know they have no chance of the league.

Us being so inconsistent is also a concern.

I would love a good cup run this year, I would even go as far to say its essential when you consider the RS have a real chance of winning the league.

A semi final (and hopefully final) at wembley is exactly what the fans need to breathe some life back in to us as its all a bit flat at the moment.

not being funny but has Coleman ever been that good? I have always thought he was a lot more effort than talent. Decent at his best and his best is gone. Will always respect his effort and attitude but needs replacing now.

Makes me laugh posts like this. I am gutted with what that injury has done to Coleman. There is no doubt its taken away alot of his game. But its always the case that fans only remember your last performance. Not only was he a cracking player pre-injury he was one of the few players weve had in 20 years with a winning mentality. For 4 or 5 years you could argue our best player with Baines. Its a joke people dont see past the last game. I am not being funny butnif you cant remember how good he was you don't understand much about what happens on a football pitch, at any level

What cups are we talking about? We can’t beat TOP 6 teams...so unreal...

Well said mate

At the end of the day this club should be all about winning trophies. You don't get a trophy for finishing 8-10. You do get a trophy for winning the FA Cup.
