Match Thread Everton v Aston Villa - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[strummer]

I've quite enjoyed watching villa this season and I'm expecting a good open game here. No grealish is hugely significant and I think James will make the difference. 2 1 to us

Allan to two foot the rat please

Great minds.

no matter what team gets picked you will always find someone in here cry arsing and saying Carlo needs to get his act together.

Personally I am happy with that team but as with every game for us this year, it’s all about whether those lads fancy playing an intense game of football tonight or would rather just play at a lethargic pace.

If we play with energy, that team is more than capable of winning tonight

 

[Zezti]

The longer Davies goes without making an appearance, the better he is in the eyes of some of you

 

[Efcjake]

Nice to see a bench full of lads able to get a round in.

 

[Eggs]

Not surprised its unchanged although not a fan of this midfield. Prefer Davies over Gomes.

...Gomes is a bit hit and miss. He’s been more ‘miss’ than ’hit’ for a while, so he’s due a good one.

feels like the latest in a season for the first match between two teams. and a cazoo derby to boot.

Not 100% fussed with the result as long as it pushes Arsenal down even further the table

A 6-0 win would put Everton above West Ham on goal difference in 5th.

Today's 3 games so far have been 2-0

My money is on 2-0 win for Villa with Barkley to get both.

Everton that.

 

[LeeCarsley]

standard 1-0 Everton win today i reckon. Real Cat-E-Nacho stuff

 

[Carloblues]

Go on Everton it's been Abar 6 months now , go out and put a show on, nice comfortable win for a change.

 

[Saint Domingo]

Good to see Holgate and Godfrey together again, and some genuine options off the bench.

 

[BigBlueConk]

Mings has been in shocking form for them.
He will score two then today.

Allan to two foot the rat please

Have godfrey come with his two feet the other side aswell. Four footer him over the church

Exactly. Our squad is pretty much on a level of ability. Its not like he's leaving anything spectacular out.

A bit hit and miss? When was the last time he put in a performance? I’m not Davies’s biggest fan but he should be in there ahead of Gomes.
