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

[Daveysgingerlovechild]

We played them last at Goodison. Moyes' first game back.

Sorry, I missed out/messed up the "this time last year" bit.

Yeah, owe them for that game too.

This is Everton, get wrecked Villa

Probably best trying to actually read the posts. Free speech is not a passport for racists and sexists and nobody is defending the shooting. But if the man uses 'free speech' to stir up hatred then the result is not a surprise. Trump loves this crap as it distracts from the real problem destroying the lives of the middle and working classes of the west. It is income distribution. The profit of Gross Domestic Product is channeled to a small group who could not possibly have produced tbeir ridiculous share. Sort that and your population will be content. Both Trump and Rachel Reeves are doing the opposite. If you think free speech allows somebody to tell women to do as they are told then I suggest you [Poor language removed] to Afganistan.

‘if you think free speech allows somebody to tell women to do as they are told then i suggest you….( swears) to Afghanistan’.
Your argument is a non-sequitur. You confirm your ignorance by swearing. I defer to JS Mill’s harm principle re: free speech. Afghanistan? Have you ever been there? How would you know?Or are you just parroting the guff you read on Sky? Or The Guardian..

Villa - good manager, team that should finish top half, low on confidence but good new signings.
Everton - good manager, team that should finish top half, full of confidence and very good new signings.
2-0
N'Diaye (if he plays) and KDH.

Villa also missing their first choice midfield it must be remembered.

I’m scared the international break will have derailed us and we’ll start the game half asleep.

This won't be easy at all.

We haven't made the HD our fortress yet and the Brighton game showed how many chances we can give up to good footballing teams on a bigger pitch where there is more space (assuming it is bigger by dimension).

Wolves game showed that, even if we're dominating, we can still concede chances.

Yes these lot haven't started well but they are still a proper outfit. The signings they made on DD would have given them a lift and the international break was probably a handy reset.

I'm not as confident as others, nor would I think that anything other than a win would be unacceptable, for the above reasons.

Regardless, with our new boys we will also create chances. Going for a sneaky 2-1 but can see this being a score draw. Would drop Beto as think we'll want to sit and counter (they don't appear to be able to create chances against a low block) and I'd rather have Baz for that

This all points to Everton win. I’m a bit worried.

Same.

We need the crowd to be hot, but don't think the HD will be there yet

Have to agree with this. Not confident at all here. Villa are a serious outfit and we are giving up too many chances. Hoping for a draw to keep momentum going.

Me too. I reckon if this was the week after Wolves we would have smashed them.

 

[Swagger]

Villa have been a bit of a bok at home. I will go for a draw.

 

[Blue Alert]

I’ve gone from being desperate to see Everton play again - really excited all week - to being worried about how disappointing anything less than a win will be. Gah. There’s no pleasing me.

Villa the only side in the top 4 divisions not to score yet this season.
