Pregame footage just showed Jose posing for pictures with like 5-10 different kids sitting up front which is the last thing I would expect from him. Look on his face was still miserable the whole time of course

..for those that don’t live on Merseyside, it’s proper stormy out there. The weather might impact the game.

Both teams to score and an Everton win 9/1worth a bet

Good to see a bit more positiveness from Sam even if we do get our asses handed to us. Great to see Niasse and Vlasic given a start too. The downside is that if we get battered then you can pretty much guarantee the buses will be recalled for the future and beyond so lets hope we impress and kick some Man U ass for all of our sakes. COYB's !!!

but for Holgate at RB I like that side

Kenny needed a rest

 

[toffeejack]

we have to go at them! That is a united team seriously lacking some firepower and then not much to fear from the bench. Need to keep martial quiet. Fairly happy with our team tbh. Don't get why he's saying about holgate being a centre back and not playing him RB ... then playing him RB a few days later, but maybe kenny needed a tad rest.

I know, but I'd rather have put Keane there - Martial will rag Williams all over the place and he will need someone to cover him, which Keane will not do.

I bet Sam only put this attacking team out to show the everton fans that we cant go this attacking with our current squad, and that when we do we will leak goals.

 

[Cels]

What's going on with Lookman? Is he injured or something?

 

[marnie]

The recliner is waiting, not sure if I shud set it at 2/4 or 3/4 recline for the start of the match.

Don't let any acorns fall from the tree FFS lol

5-5 written all over it

My only fear is that UTD are due a win after 3 draws, but hopefully we can sneak this 1-0. Come on you beautiful Blues!!!!!

Schneiderlin owes us and the team a performance today. If he's found wanting again then both he and Sam need to take the blame.
