Only good thing if we have to start Morgan tomorrow is that Burnley hardly attack at pace.

 

[blue to the bone]

Yeah still wouldn’t be sure you will see him going in for challenges etc with the injury he has come back from

If he doesn't he may as well retire..

I would be satisfied with a draw but sadly, I can’t see us getting anything from these. Chris Wood to score the 2-1 winner for them.

its a good job cos a card board cut out would do a better job..

From the Telegraph: The manager said it was too early to say whether Andre Gomes will be fit after the on-loan midfielder suffered a knee strain in the first half against Spurs. Idrissa Gueye is nearing fitness, however.

This game won't be won in the midfield lets be honest it's going to be a huge number of long balls by them and whether we can counter quickly. Saying that I would feel more confident if Gana is back.

they are going to be chucking crosses in at every opportunity..

coleman is a weak link, he is going to need some quality cover tomorrow.

I wont be satisfied with anything but a win in this. I know we have been poor since the RS fluked it and were proper embarrassing against Spurs but we have showed against the RS and some games previous that we are capable of much more and can compete even against the best teams in this league. We are playing a team that have only won 3 games so far and have had more goals scored against them than games played i.e conceded 20. No free passes for lack of confidence, transition period or injuries for this match imo. If the blues cannot get motivated and play passionately, tactfully and skilfully against a team who have been as crud as these have been all season then you have to wonder why we are even bothering because that is not forward progression in any sense of the word.

We are owed a good showing and its about time we gave someone that good tonking like we know we are capable of doing.

Plus i want to watch MOTD on Boxing day. lol

Queue the fume tomorrow evening.

That we are even interested in this despite the garbage thats been served up lately is a testament to Evertonians everywhere.

Evertonians 1 Everton 0

Just win this in any fashion. If I forget about it happening in 3 months that's honestly great.
