Thing is RS will be in our face whatever happens. Say we get a result they will sarcastically thank us for helping win them the league. If we lose they will say we rolled over even though they all say we are garbage.
 
My starting line up and subs:

Pickford
Kenny Keane Zouma Digne
Gomes
Davies Gana
Bernard
Cenk Richarlson
Virginia
McCarthy
Lookman
DCL
Schniederlin
Jags/Mina
Coleman

  • Digne returns from suspension
  • Sigurdsson told to stay home
  • Kenny gets the start
  • Gana brought back in
  • New formation:
    • Overload the mid and don’t allow them to play through the center
    • Gomes stays home as the deep playmaker providing a link between defense and mid
    • Gana/Davies allowed to roam wider and cover fullbacks on defense but stay narrower on the attack
    • Fullbacks to push forward into spaces left by Gana and Davies pinning back their wingers/ requiring more support from their fullbacks
    • Bernard has complete freedom to show up where needed and link mid to attack
    • Cenk pushes the line deep while Richarlson plays just off him and in front of the line
  • Subs:
    • Lookman on for Bernard/Cenk for better link up/formation change
    • McCarthy on for Bernard if somehow tied or winning to tighten up the midfield
    • DCL on for Cenk if not performing and keeping formation
    • Virginia, Schniederlin, Coleman, Jags/Mina all unused subs

Pep won,t care what team he puts out! Any team selection will beat us
 
To be honest I wouldn't care if Watford get something as well, for this reason and to add to the abuse he is going to deservedly get on Saturday

Watford will beat us - the small time beauts have fabricated some one side rivalry and they'll be rocking at home - Silva and our spineless lot will crumble.

I just hope he gets punted before the derby and we give it Royle until the end of the season.

Royles 1st game in charge against the RS at a rocking Goodison. That should be the reality however we all know our coward board will let Marco stay on and we get pumped 0-3 by the RS.
