Match Thread Everton 2-2 Man United. Sat Feb 22nd. 12.30.

[GoldenToffee]

Quick start get two goals up and I fully expect them to fold.

They are already bereft of confidence, have been told they're crap by their manager (we saw how our players reacted to that then Dyche was constantly belittling them) and loads of their players know they've got no role to play there next season.

Gerrup em, geeetcha.

 

[Terrarian]

We still seem to treat these as though fergie is still managing them. They're rubbish at the minute, we need to shift the inferiority complex and get into them.

 

[ValBlue]

As ever, it’s important to score first here. They’re a team woefully low on confidence but probably just enough ability to hurt us in moments if we get complacent. If we can go 1-0 up relatively early, think the arse will fall out of them.

 

[Cels]

With Ruben Amorim coming out with confidence building statements like the one below, I would say there has never been a better time to play this lot.

"I have a lot of problems," Amorim told Sky Sports. "My job is so hard but I am here to continue my job to the next week with my beliefs and I will try to win again."

Thing with Amorim is he uses stuff from his old club that was the right way for them. But is not the right way for Man Utd. Ive said it before and will always stick to it. Any so called good manager should be able to get the best out of so called players that are claimed not the best (to be in the starting line up etc). All the thing about them getting say to the summer and getting who he may want may make no different if he plays pretty much the same system, as doubt they will be able to get as many players as they may want. You can play same system but tweak it a touch, they dont really seem to

Going to be one of THOSE games this. Everton win 3-0. United win 3-0. OR a boring 0-0 draw. In other words - Avent a clue!

I guess the only real decision is Doucoure or Alcaraz assuming nobody else back from injury.

I hope we treat them like the bottom half team they are and pick the ball player rather than the work horse.

 

[Rob17896]

I agree. Man U is ripe for the taking. We’re trending up and they’re falling. Great time to get some points. Love seeing them struggle.

We are thin on the ground for players so don't think it is easy, it is not.

He must pick Alcaraz ahead of Doucs.
He did enough at Palace to justify that.

Please win. Amorim could easily be gone in the summer. In fact, I think he wants to go back to Sporting

This is Churchill 'we'll fight them on the beaches' levels of fighting talk. Imaging hearing that as a player. Basically you're all s***e but I'll do my best with you.

Come on Everton, we can 100% win this one.

 

[Voodoo Billy]

Players and fans owe Moyes for what he's accomplished during the past few weeks. He'd love to get one over on this lot. Early start but let's give them a lively welcome and make the most of their low confidence levels. UTFT

 

[witchdoc187]

Can't see Bruno being there much longer especially if we smash them. Although they're useless you'd want to see an improvement from the new manager and they have gone backwards.

 

[rochdaleblue]

United at goodison is never an easy game for us. Don’t think this will be as easy as many are suggesting.

Quite something the way that club seems to just be surrendering.

Top down it’s collapsing under its own weight and no one seems able or especially willing to stop it. There’s no sign of where the bottom is.

Where’s the fight?
