We'll lose 5 on the bounce soon enough. It's the Everton way...
Not if Villa win tonight.A draw keeps us top.
WE SHALL NOT
WE SHAL NOT BE MOVED
Not if Villa win tonight.
I think we are relying on Allan and Douc having a big big pair of performances on Sunday in the absence of James/Rich. If they can sustain 90 mins of cover of the line behind them - one of whom is a novice - then we still have the foundations for a solid and tight display. We will need this with Ings.
Assuming Godfrey starts RB then his forward runs last week offer some hope for advanced movement and some service for DCL. Am hoping Carlo starts Siggy rather than Gomes (who stunk out the derby) as we have also lost our dead-ball / corner threat in the absence of James. A draw looks the most likely outcome however this is a challenge for Carlo and his staff to coax an unexpected 8 out of 10 performance and perhaps a goal/assist out of an Iwobi or a Bernard.
If we are to push for the very top positions, this is a fixture that the RS/City would win without question. That's the bar now.
I wonder if Villa forums have a Champions thread haha cringe
This one by goat is tongue in cheek but there have been some serious ones as well hahaIt's all tongue in cheek ha if they don't then they don't have much sense of humour.
