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

[Ian]

we're like a battered wife.

I know it was the same the last 500 times but this time I swear it'll be different.

**WHACK***

BUT I STILL LOVE THEM

A disturbingly accurate analogy!

We might actually win this today. Not sure it is going to be pretty but i think Dyche has the tactical nous to get us over the line at home.

Either way, COYB's

For all the positive influence he's had, I'm not sure Dyche has more tactical nous than Emery.

Dick, maybe; Unai, no.

I feel more nervous today than last week, not sure why

i feel exactly the same a lot more nervous

it’s the players they have to ours

 

[matty1878]

Arenal have pace all through the team.

Leeds have pace in Gnonto and others.

We’ve got this

hope so

I feel more nervous today than last week, not sure why

Me too and it's because I'm worried that Barron Von Greenback is going to show his face and it will cause issues and distract away from the team.

Good afternoon pisslizards. Just to ask that when you don’t get your three points you think you’re entitled to today that you react in an adult manner please.

Thank you and up the toffees.

Interesting morning for me, I Was in the same hotel as villa, then was in the lift with Douglas Louis, got out thinking it was the ground floor and followed him thinking he was going to reception and accidentally walked into the villa pre match briefing, and I had my Everton coat on, then John Duran gave me the weirdest of looks and I got escorted out of the room, oops.

I expect the same as ever. Balanced polite discussions about where we went wrong with constructive criticism of the players where necessary

We haven't beat Villa for a long time, fingers crossed for today, need a result

You could of pressed the emergency button..

Everton are still shot through with weaknesses but I no longer feel sick on match days. Excelsior.

COYB, let's acknowledge Pickford's new contract by keeping a clean sheet.

 

[ForeverEverton]

I`m hoping Simms starts, I thought he done well in his cameo last week...

As for the result................

Very hard game, we have a terrible record against these and I am surrounded by the mutants as I live in Staffordshire which makes it worse. Would take a draw to keep things rolling as 9 points from 12 is just too good to be true.

1-1
