Match Thread Everton v Chelsea. 12th Sep at 12.45.

[Bobbys Shoe Polish]

Funes Mori to get sent off on his Everton debut today. I heard it in the grape vine.

There goes the "Keep Chico's Ego in Check" strategy out the window.

I voted for Chico in the labour leader contest and he wasn't even in it!!!!

 

[KevMirallas]

No idea what happens here. Hope we win though.

 

[dave abrahams]

He got a direct red as I remember which is a 3 game ban. They played Palace at home after that and he wasn't in that game. I think he has 2 more games left to sit out.

Whether you think he's banned or not, he's in the Chelsea squad for today's game.

I was deeply offended at Mouth-Breather but by Clitoris I was on the Floor.

Terry's banned mate. Remember that Shakespeare play orchestrated by Jose where Terry got sent off against West Brom to lure Stones to fill the void?

But it was all a trap by Kenwright who wanted to make us believe we were selling Stones so that he wouldn't sell Stones.

COME ON YOU BLUES!

LET'S KICK THEM SQUARE IN THE NUTS


3-1 chelsea

Didn't Costa get dragged off for Spain as he looked totally out of sorts?Certainly can see him getting a red. Bit more of a worry is can see him doing something really nasty too.
Pedro worrying me the most at the moment so hope you're right.

This. That's where / when we need our 'hard man' to get in there first. Jags should do but can't / won't, McCarthy despite early promise is no Roy Keane, Barry couldn't catch him anyway ... job for Mo ?

Dead excited for this one. Made up its a dark day and raining, always seems to add to the hostility on days like this. Hope Goodison is bouncing today, probably wishful thinking considering the last year or two but we should be right up for this.

A bit far fetched, that, but I think taking him off at half time v City might have been a message to Stones.

McCarthy and Coleman worked him in tandem last year I reckon we'll try the same thing again today.

 

[Mozza1987]

Got a feeling we will win today! 2 or 3-1 with possibly Stones even scoring. Really looking forward to it and I think the atmosphere will be great with everything that has happened with Chelsea recently. COYB!!!

remember it well, most of it played out right in front of where I was sitting. This is what worries me, Costa won that battle and terrorised the rest of the backline too. Someone has to give it him hard (hopefully fair too) right from the off then get into his head.

It's not beyond the realms of possibility that Mourinho will instruct Costa to get in about Stones, possibly do something nasty as has been suggested, knowing that even if he gets sent off, he can park the proverbialbus which we will struggle to break down.

Leaving for the match now .. see you all there. Let's make some noise.

I just hope they don't batter us...
