Any word on injuries?
Richarlison
Allan
Coleman

100% agree - 1230 Saturday seems mental, BT's choice obviously. If it is a dull lethargic 0-0 (my bet) they'll look a bit daft

Strange choice of time. Glad Allan and Doucoure get rested up in midfield. I suspect we sit deep and don't try to implement a high octane game plan. Hopefully they try the opposite.

All should be goof to go

We’ve picked up maximum points quarter final of the league cup sometimes playing half with strength teams. If we lose this we lose this but we will have a full strength team hopefully and if we don’t atleast give them a hell of a game. If we muster up an abysmal performance we will never ever ever shake that derby inferiority complex.

Please get at them blues.

There's no inferiority complex. The squad changes year on year and most of this team hasn't lost the derby that often.

We've played them 19 times since we beat them but 11 of them have been draws.

Everton arnt we

We need to win this. Just to watch all the mutant heads fall off. Believe me, if we win this, somebody will probably get murdered....

Again.

10 years is disgraceful, 11 would be unbearable after our start and them getting snotted by Villa. Commence operation Goodison mauling.

I'm concerned about James, Mina, and Richarlison not getting back in time to play, or to play well. Brazil's last game is the the evening of Tuesday the 13th in Peru. Same date for Colombia, in Chile. Them's some long-ass flights to be ready for a game on Saturday the 17th at Goodison..

Apart from the fact James now plays for us, it is no different to the last 100 international breaks. It is fine.

apparently all the South Americans are going to be a bit sleepy.

It's not like these lads fly Ryanair either.

Just read a report about Liverpool's 4th goalkeeper who has been recommended by Allison's brother, Muriel. What is it with those Beckers?

 

[EFC-FCN]

Godfrey can cover Mina but we have no one available to cover James or Richarlison.

Worst case scenario is they start from the bench and we can stay in the game until half time and bring them on 2nd half.

I do think they will limit his minutes against Venezuela though, they're not a very strong team and they'll want him fit and full of energy for the Chile game.

Aaah, the simple ways of times gone by, when Dixie Dean got stone drunk in The Winslow on friday night, slept it off in the pub, and the next day scored a hat-trick against Liverpool

Oh but when Darron Gibson does it and knocks over a cyclist driving home drunk on a Tuesday morning it's not ok? God, the double standards in this place.

A different era and attitudes.

Bit of a difference between getting drunk and sleeping it off in the pub, and getting drunk then going for a drive don't you think?
