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

[MockBu4]

seriously I'm allergic to Magpies don't see anything royal in these birds...
and for me they seem to bring sorrow only, no joy at all, hear that Donovan?!

 

[Jeff Jones]

It might be tempting for Carlo to send him a message and drop Richo, but Newcastle have been so bad for so long that this could be the match
where he plays himself back into form.

 

[messymascot]

Has Carlo hinted at this? Or are we taking it for granted

I was just working on the number of games there is at the minute. I think he is trying to keep everyone fresh.

 

[Rooney_Tunes]

I think it was Olsen going to play even before error. There is no way he drops out completely.

And after the error?

Surely Carlo knows that we have an opportunity here to be Top 4, and if he continues to play the Comedian, that chance exponentially recedes.

Oh well.

He hasn't been playing to his normal standards but in the system we play his work rate means he's hard to drop. As you say I'm sure a goal or two will get him back on track. Hopefully this weekend.

We're putting five past these clowns.

 

[BigBlueConk]

These were equally as crapp the last time we played them, but we managed to be worse.
It is our special power. It stop us fans take anything for granted.
Except the fans who take it for granted.

We have already lost to bad teams this season with performances to match.

So I do not take this for granted.

COYB!

 

[Death]

Olsen is likely to start tomorrow. And not because Jordan cost us the match on Wed. But because he can't handle playing v Newcastle. He needs protection. He would probably be dropped for it regardless. Wtf is that? Like is that our number one? We need to protect his fragile mind from some fixtures? Madness.

 

[steele]

Historically is has been typical Everton to loose this game, when we have the chance of getting into top 4-6. Trust Mr Carlo to change this and demand some winning mentality

These are our top performers in recent weeks, why would you put anyone else in unless ALan was fit?

...Richarlison is arguably our most valuable asset. He carries genuine goal threat from wide position and provides energy, tempo & competitiveness to the team. Leaving him out is folly. Digne is possibly the best LB in the league, it’s his position and it’s where he has to play.

...not in the least bothered by ‘systems’. Whether Richarlison plays out wide or up front, he gets close to DCL and into goal scoring situations. Iwobi needs to do similar from the other side.

 

[hallamblue]

We need to get on the front foot and stay there in this game.

Ordinarily, I would agree, but he has stunk he place out for weeks and weeks. The players I have put there have all turned up and produced to their ability. Can we afford another abject display and effectively have one man upfront as Richie seems incapable of doing anything with the ball?
Digne on the left HAS been putting excellent balls in AND beating a man. We need those things right now
