Match Thread Everton v Liverpool - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[Can't buy class]

Not been this excited about a derby for years, as long as we actually turn up and play unlike most of the previous games then we will be fine. We have a team full of confidence and players who can pick a cross/pass which isn't sideways or backwards.

Have a great time watching the game blues safe in the knowledge we now have a winning mentality and one of the most free scoring teams in the league.

Nervous already.

 

[Terrarian]

Nervous today, haven't really had this feeling for quite a long time, hopefully it's a sign things are turning around at last.

What time is everyone having their first drink? Think I’m going to go for half 11.

 

[Seathestars]

Derby's are just pure heart attack gear.
Not even sure why I watch, they should carry a health warning

last season we were 10 points after 10 games on a -6 GD haha what a a turnaround

 

[Nymzee]

The two week break has really deflated my optimism.

The two week break has really deflated my optimism.

I think its helped the team but yeah i get what your saying, it feels like the momentum has been interrupted.

 

[JLW]

Think it will be the team we expect with Gylfi instead of Gomes.

 

[f.t.r.s]

The fact that sky are focusing on the old firm and you have to go looking for anything about our game shows that they're worried about us today

 

[Stephen Gibson]

Can't sleep. Fully awake now. Expecting big things from Allan & Doucoure today. They need to be work horses to help out the potentially tired legs of James & Richy. Got to hope Mane isn't 100% as he makes them lot tick. We need Sigurdsson to be on it too if/when he comes on as i can't see James doing 90. I reckon DCL will have an extra bit of spring in his play as he knows there will be some service to him unlike England. Seamus will give everything no doubt & Yerri's fist shaking when winning tackles needs to become a regular thing as him & Allan both doing that sends a message of war to any opposition. Gomes needs to watch the many fouls he conceeds every game. In a derby the RS will be screaming for cards & probably get them because Everton that. If Jordon Pickford makes a goal scoring error today then i think he might be done. He HAS to have a big game today.
Please win this one Everton. Please.

 

[Nymzee]

This game has never been about a talent divide only a mentality. Let’s hope the new boys can inspire the existing players or whether they’ll wilt away. I think no fans there will really help us though as it has all season.
