Match Thread Everton v Brentford. Preview, Match Report and MotM poll

[JohnRoss23]

I don't have as much confidence in DCL at the moment that some of you seem to.

 

[Iana]

That does make you think we really should win it, except that a certain Danish midfielder was not in their squad that day, but still we have got to believe at Goodison we can do these! COYB

I think it will be a tricky game but not like facing the so called top 4.
Brentford have played 9 away games in 2022 and won 3 and lost 6. The wins were against Norwich,Watford(stoppage time winner) and Chelsea.
Eriksen has played in the 3 victories but also the defeat at Man Utd earlier this month.
Evertonians know this is a massive game for the club and will generate a fantastic atmosphere on the day and I think it will lead to the loudest Spirit of The Blues rendition ever heard at Goodison.
If results go our way before the kick-off the atmosphere will be off the scale.

No!! I'll be in the same hotel knowing my luck. The only bangers I want to see is on that free channel you get under the adult section

Soz, but I’d sacrifice your beauty sleep if it meant Ivan Toney not getting a wink

 

[Charles Hawtrey]

This has the potential to be a celebratory day based on prior results or a nail biting 90 of holding them at bay. As a lifelong Evertonian I know which way I think it will go...

I won’t change 5 at the back because our defence becomes more solid recently.

Pickford

Iwobi Coleman Keane Holgate Mykolenko

Gray Doucouré Allan Richarlison

Calvert-Lewin

Subs: Kenny, Begović, Gomes, Godfrey, Gordon, van der Beek, Branthwaite, Rondon, Alli.

Injured: Patterson, Delph, Mina, Townsend.

[Goat]

Hahahahahahahahaha no

Even I wouldnt be playing Gomes again.

Soz Andre, you sexy, sexy man.

Wasn't he Villa's top scorer last season? I'm not saying he's all that, but I do wonder what is stopping him being considered.

I’m not knocking the guy. Just wondering why he hasn’t been played. Gray has been poor recently. But still no El Ghazi. Not even on the bench.
We do bring in some strange loan signings. And then don’t use them. Guess hes not a Lampard sort or player……

Not a bad team. Just hope that two players in particular are up for the fight. Gray and DCL. I’m sure that they are in their minds up for the fight……..but they just need to show it. I have confidence that the other 9 will give their all. Poor footballers that some of them are. Just give their all.
No passengers this weekend……

The should do mate it's the Greek version of Sky. You should be able to find a bar if not.

 

[Mark Bisson]

We've already beaten them 4-1 at Goodison this season.

I mean, I know nothing is guaranteed and we should've won yesterday, too... but that's a good omen, isn't it?

I had actually forgotten about that cup win, should boost confidence.

I do wonder if there's financial reasons linked to the contract otherwise he must simply be rubbish.

I had to read that again. I wondered what the heck Toney's hobbies had to do with the thread. Wink... makes sense now.
