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

[Timbucktoo]

Looking forward to this one on Saturday, only thing is I`m working in the afternoon so will not be keeping up to date. Grealish up against his old club, Villa looking not so good this season so far, us unbeaten at BMD. I`ll be disappointed if we don`t win this one and go into the derby the following week in flying form.

It's feels great looking forward to us playing this week-end
Just looking at the fixtures all seven London teams playing
In the capital

Since we have had our best start in years I have no expectations for this match. International windows always seem to throw things off. That said, obviously another great opportunity with them really struggling right now. Another win before a few tough matches(with West Ham thrown in) would really ease into the season.

If we don’t win I’d be dissapointed

That’s where I’m at

I want the hill dicky to be a fortress

An impenetrable fortress

Despite me liking the message above, I do just have a feeling, we are feeling good, Villa have had an iffy start, seems like we'll win...

... Can see it being a draw truth be told. Villa are still a fairly better team than us, but we are playing them at a good time.

no games easy
they still are a very good side
and very good manager

Are they really that much better though? Comparing the 2 squads, I can't really see that gulf in quality. Squad depth wise they will hold the edge, but seems like we will be close to complete. Will be a very competitive game, but think/hope we have a very good chance of getting the 3 points.

Just hope I don't prove to be as a bad jinx at our new home, as I was for far too long at Goodison

Rogers looked good for England tonight. Will pose a threat imo, makes Villa's attack click when he's on it.

They have a better striker, better full backs, better centre mids, attacking mids/wingers and centre backs seem a similar level. I also think Martinez and Pickford are at a similar level.

also with no disrespect to moyes, manager wise emery edges it.

Have to admit that I’m impatient for this international break to be over so we can get back to watching our sexy Everton again.

Looking forward to a clean sheet from Pickford and Grealish’s customary 2 assists. Maybe he will score this week too.

Full backs is a position I'd agree on. Oh and striker. Although it's always a question which Beto turns up for a game.

Wouldn't swap N'diaye or Grealish for any of theirs.

Better striker yes, better full backs yes, their good CMs are injured atm and I'd take our attacking 3 over theirs right now easy. Should be a good game I think but I fancy us

 

[brieverton]

You could say every game is a barometer but I do think this is the type of opposition we have to look to beat, at home, if we are looking to make measurable progress this season and threaten to finish around or in the top half.
