Match Thread Everton 1-1 West Ham United 29th September 20:00

The only niggle I have in my head is, Moyes will have set his plan to play Potters West Ham, and Moyes being Moyes, won't stray from that. Nuno will know exactly how we'll set up.

Nuno's Forest set up last season was an absolute machine. When they came to Goodison I couldn't believe how good they were, hard to describe his style but they just battled for the ball and seemed keen to punish any mistakes we made. Very different to the Forest the season before. But honestly I'd be surprised if he can do the same at West Ham, Forest have a lot of decent players right now and a big squad and West Ham aren't in the same shape.

1st proper game under the lights of Hill Dixie

Very big game for us, but they all are really.

A win would cement a solid start in the league and get us over the LC defeat.

A draw/defeat would be a huge setback and a big dent in optimism. It's a big game for Moyes.

Yeah, but that West Ham team was rubbish. We have a stronger team and are better on the ball. It should really be a routine win.

Unfortuately there's no such thing as a routine win in the Premier league

Be great to see Barry get one

A goal or two for whichever striker starts would be good.
It seems whoever starts has a stinker. Then the other one comes in for 20 minutes and shows signs of promise. Switch striker for the next game, rinse and repeat.

 

[Nymzee]

Need to score early to get the confidence flowing.

 

[davek]

We need to start off the way we did against Brighton. First 20 minutes we were first to the ball and stretched them; even if they came into the half in the last 20 minutes. And West Ham dont have the talent Brighton have to recover like they did.

 

[anton66]

Not a sell out.

 

[maccavennie]

Grealish to blammo in his first Everton goal and a 3-0 home win.

 

[Benicetoourboys]

Lets make it noisy & get behind the boys.

 

[GoldenToffee]

Going behind to West Ham would really make for a limp atmosphere at the Dick tonight. Got to be in their faces, have the Dick standing to attention and ready to explode with an early goal.
