We always beat this lot at home. Today will be no different.

He’s our best central midfielder by an absolute mile, I wouldn’t be moving him from there whatsoever. Everton have needed a “temporary” right back for about 5 years now as well

Yeah long term absolutely not. Tim is in a rich vein of form though and one would hope we've brought Armstrong back to play.

We would miss Garner in the middle dont get me wrong, but it's a home game against Brentford. I want to see us play on the front foot, and having Garner at right back has been transformational for us in that regard previously this season.

Not saying that line up will cost us the game, but it certainly kills a lot of pre-game excitement and anticipation.

My number 10 there

6 layers on the top half. Ski thermals under my jeans. Inside the concourse feels freezing.

Hopefully a few goals will get things warmer

How’s the weather?

Could be the game has come too quick for Patterson given lack of minutes.

Probably. Especially with 2 more in the next 6 days. Managing the squad. Same for rohl

I think Brentford are actually a decent side and it will take a moment of magic to get though the lines. Hopefully I’m wrong but I predict us struggling to break them down today

I think my right back pick of last year 'Kayode' will put Grealish through his paces today.

My hope is with Dibling down the right against Hickey.

 

[Joey66]

For me today requires our strongest team Joe.

I'd say that's our Strongest team, Defensively anyway.

Maybe but that team never looked like scoring at Burnley....

Wouldn't you rather have a positive manager who made every game something to look forward to - an opportunity, a joy to behold the lads in blue jerseys stepping across the white line again - rather than Sgt Maj. Moyes preparing us for a game like we're going over the top in the Battle of the Somme?

I remember we had one of those. The one who described Tom Cleverly as world class and every crap performance as 'phenomenal.' It was nice for a year, then not so much.

Barry with a 'kin hat trick today imo. First goal after 9 minutes.

 

[tantavisiteler]

Why no Röhl?
