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

[MACCA75]

Newcastle have lots of injuries too..

They have about 500 defenders though

Scott Gemmill scores Everton's third goal in their 1-3 win against Newcastle United FC on 17th April 1999.

Oh we could do with a Scot Gemmill now

Every game recently feels like a must win game, and this is no different. It’s gonna be another tight game, and an early goal would do us the world of good I think. Given the injury situation, the only change I would make to the lineup from the other day would be to start Sidibe at RB. Score prediction 2-1, Kean to (finally) score. He’s hoping for a more entertaining match! COYB!

Hahaha I don't want him either, but who is worse, him or Davies? Honestly, Davies was a disgrace against Villa. I hate both of them (in a footballing sense), but we cannot give games to players who have been appalling the game before. At least play Schneiderlin here than swap him back out if he's awful.

If we play Schneiderlin and Delph the ball wont cross the half way line, we will have 90% possession and it will all be in our own half.

I'm still dubious about playing a 35 year old out of position for about the 2nd time in his career.

It's Walter Smith stuff... Actually reverse Smith. My abiding memory of his reign of terror is wondering who he thought could play full back that week.

The good old days of Mr 'Disappointed' himself - we used to guess how many defenders he could squeeze into his starting 11 each week. I think the record came at Blackburn when he shoe horned 7 into the team!!

Stoked! In Merseyside. First time with my son at Goodison tonight.
Staying in the city, looking forward to having a few pints with him on the way in.
COYB!

Oh I know that mate, it's more about the rules regarding flying over residential and built-up areas. Where I currently live the maximum height is 50ft, haha.

got a horrible feeling abar a little 0-1 tonight, that joelinton to score his first goal in abar 5 months

I normally say every home game I fancy us to win handsomely so i'm going for a different approach

Yes, I always worry about opposition players who haven't scored in forever, and 12 year - old debutants. Fingers crossed!

My mate used to work in a pub in Formby where him and Knox drank. He swore they spent all week discussing who to play out of position.

He scored last week mate breaking his slump. So the Everton come to town doesn’t matter tonight haha. We play to our best we win but can we is the question.

Right. We all know who to blame if we fail to win. I love it when scapegoats come on and identify themselves before the event.
