I hope we try richarlison up front as much as I like tosuns workrate his finishing has cost us

Southall

Tommy Wright Brian Labone Ray Wilson

Trevor Steven Peter Reid Kevin Sheedy

Johnny Morrissey Duncan Ferguson Bob Latchford Dave Thomas

Might get a result with that team

 

[deipnosophist]

Will we see him before Xmas?

Yerry Christmas

Think I would prefer Gary Stevens at RB.

Right.... get this into your skulls

1. WE. WILL. LOSE. TODAY
2. Next week's game against Fulham will be an early relegation 6-pointer.

Agree with point 1, although I think that we will score..
Couldn't disagree more with point 2. With the talent we now have (albeit many of them haven't seen the pitch yet), there isn't the slightest chance that we will be anywhere near a relegation scrap.

As ever these days, not expecting a great deal result wise from the game this afternoon.
All I wish for is signs that we are beginning to make progress again after last week's effort, which by the way was always on the cards.
Given that major signings have yet to make their debuts I want to see just a modicum of better team morale so that we avoid crappy headlines and reviews from the media.

If we start Gueye and Schneiderlin may as well just end the match before it starts.

Arsenal’s midfield is gash but ours is another level. Not a hint of balance anywhere to be seen

 

[marsh]

Surely it can't be worse than last seasons defeat here

 

[billyblue80]

There has to be one day where we win one of these games for gawdsakes!

 

[polish]

Hate those fixtures just as I hate the Merseyside Derby.

We won 3 in last 25 games against Arsenal.

 

[tommytowne]

There has to be one day where we win one of these games for gawdsakes!

My sentiments exactly. Why can't today be one of those days when a totally unexpected result gets thrown up.

this is the truth

Trouble is this is a default of fill in the blanks it seems for any Everton manager even at home. Success rate of this pairing is abysmal.

 

[ADT]

If we concede less than 5 we’re improving
