Match Thread Everton V Aston Villa. Sat Sep 13th. 3pm

This will be an interesting one. We played them at home in Moyes' first match and they looked a class above us. Hopefully that won't be the case in this game. I see a tight one, possibly a 1-1.

I am EXPECTING a win here. How it is to feel alive !

 

[PhilEFC]

Good side Villa, but I think we’ll shade it.

 

[BigBeto1]

Even though they have started poorly they have a good team Villa. This will be more indicative of where we are at

 

[Zatara]

Expected win for FC SEXY

I think Grealish destroys them and slots 2 goals + Barry with the 3rd

That's not how I remember it at the time, and the match stats show it being very close. DCL missed a sitter at the end, you might recall.

 

[kiss the crest]

They have just signed Sancho and Elliott 2 players who can cause our full backs trouble of we are not on it

tough game but atmosphere should be rocking and hopefully the blue shinsters give us a show

 

[Jeff Jones]

Is Grealish allowed to play against his original club?
Will be a tough one this as they have not had a win yet. Cannot see being their day but then Hwang hadn't scored in 2025 until he faced Everton...
Fancy us for a 2:1 win here - I have no idea why.

Wow. If that rule applied Don Hutchison would have missed a helluva lot of games.

 

[Walken]

Villa look a state, they should have sold the over performing Watkins when it was viable and freshened up.

That being said I hate games like this and it just feels like they will turn it around against us

is barry any better than DCL

 

[Glasshalffull]

Can't afford any of the instances of comedy defending we've seen up to now against these.

 

[Bally1989]

We are due a win

 

[Blue Neon]

is barry any better than DCL

Will probably know by Christmas.

Villa always been a bit of bogey side for us, but they don't seem to be as strong so far - their window seemed a rush job at the end, Elliott a good signing, but Sancho & Lindelof just feel like rushed desperation signings at the end

Same side as Wolves, hopefully another victory.

Branthwaite can't be far off after the break

Bench should be looking strong, adding Rohl in there now as well
