Match Thread Everton v Tottenham Hotspur.- FA Cup 5th Rd.- Wednesday - 8.15pm

[blue1948]

The cup is King tied.

Your tie is a cup cake.

Even with Kane they're in a real bad patch, Be disappointing if we don't do some damage here, Ripe for the taking.

They are an entirely different team with Kane though, as reliant on him as any team are on any player.

We match up quite badly with Spurs because they do not look to be overly attacking and look to counter attack with extremely clinical forwards. That's why they are so toothless and dull to watch when missing one of Son or Kane. We need to make sure we take our own chances when they come tonight. We might only get 2 or 3 opportunities and need to take them.

Grahame Stewart on TS in a moment to remember the 95 semi with H&J. H is, of course, a Spurs fan.

Nah,ratters came through the youth system with us Eggs.

...believe it or not, I used to watch him in those Academy days, I was just surprised another poster thought we bought him for LB.

its spurs, not newcastle

I hope to see tip-top defensive discipline today.* COYB!

Containing Son will be key. Let's just not assign Gomes to the task.


* I won't, though, as I'll be on an audio-only format. Tarnation!

In the main we don’t do that well against them.

believe in the magic of the cup.

If you had told me at full time after the disappointment of '89 we would only win the cup again 1 more time in the next 300 years I would have fallen to pieces on the spot. Fortunately, I am just falling to pieces gradually.

 

[RomanReigns]

i would go with

Olsen
Godfrey
Keane
Mina
Digne
Doucoure
Davies
Gomes
James / Iwobi
Richarlison
DCL

Started the day thinking we are gonna do this but as the day goes on I get less confident, is this what Everton does to all of us?
