Match Thread Everton v Brighton - Preview, Match Report and MotM poll

[LostLegend]

Got tickets for this (providing it goes ahead)

Not been to a match under the recent COVID rules. Is your vaccination pass on the NHS app enough or so you need a lateral flow test result as well? Or is it one or the other?

I shan't bother watching the game, but I expect our brave lionhearts to capitulate early on before scoring a late consolation goal...(probably via a Brighton own-goal). So a 1-2 loss is impending. My MotM will be Crab Iwobi.

He’s training with Nigeria at the moment getting ready for The African Nations cup!!

Oh...in that case, Tom (hipster) Davies is my MotM

Just your pass is fine thats if they even ask you

Interesting that the bookmakers can’t call this one. More or less 2/1 for the three potential results which sums it up really. Depends what teams are announced to get a clearer idea of the outcome of this one I think.

Be nice to try and get to within 2 points of the mighty Brighton with a game in hand. Try and keep us from being cut adrift from the mid table sides in January.

If Rafael plans on starting Iwobi then I'm happy for this to get cancelled

Our best performance this season down there so hopefully our second best comes tomorrow

If we can play again with the Chelsea spirit we will win this. But those performances seem to occur only fleetingly. I'm still going 2-1 to us with a noisy crowd in attendance.

Looking forward to an exciting end to end encounter with plenty of mistakes and goals. COYB!

[navidson]

Fingers crossed it goes ahead

 

[Richard Alex]

I’d put Branthwait in the team in fairness instead of Holgate

Everybody seems to have forgotten his performance against Chelsea

 

[Canuck Darryl]

If ever there was a “must win”, this is it.

 

[Igrok]

Inspiring 1-0 win…then go on the run…

Hopefully a significant but non-deadly strain of covid develops amongst the Nigeria players and they're banned from entering England for the next 12 years.
