Everton v Watford. Nov 5th 2017

[RichardP]

I really hope we can win today, even if it is ugly. If we lose then we start to see a big gap appear and risk being cut adrift with Palace.

I am not confident at all but will be cheering for whoever gets to pull on the blue jersey today.

Seeing how they perform and how we do .. i think we will get beat

williams will struggle with troy deeney

and richelson or how ever you spell it will turn kenny inside out , why can't we sign any brazilian hotshots ?

Troy Deeney is suspended.

Starting out in half an hour or so.
I'm expecting a win daft as it sounds. This for no other reason than I stupidly think we are due a break or two today from the footballing gods.
This might be via a couple of good performances from the lads, or even a dubious penalty (remember them?).
COYB

Most pivotal day in clubs history since Coventry city. The players, who I think collectively have got off lightly, need to be on it from minute one, and the crowd will react in kind. The alternative narrative going into the international break doesn't bare thinking about.

 

[PhilM]

A win is vital today and the way we play to achieve such a victory don't really concern me: right now a victory at all costs is what we need.

Nevertheless, as others have mentioned, I feel the players have somewhat got off lightly from criticism so they need to show tenacity today.

We need to get into them from the start, build the crowds support with crunching tackles and play at a much, much higher tempo.

 

[Cork Evertonian]

We'll lose this 1-2. Potato head to score first, Watford to break our hearts in final 20 minutes.

Well let's hope you won't be boasting about being right again, later on today.

Spot on with this.
Not even remotely near Merseyside yet but can already feel the groundswell of importance over this game.
Massively important to get a win today.

Christ, you can't underestimate how huge this game is for us. A home loss here could be a total and utter disaster for us. Looking at the fixture list, this is the game we just absolutely have to win. Watford are on fire at the minute and we still don't even know what our best starting XI is. Dreading this.

Unsworth isnt ending his stint with 4 straight defeats. No matter how cowardly and clueless a lot of of our players have appeared over recent months. Not even when our opponents are the mighty Watford.
Time for all those in the blue shirts to stand up like men for once.

Potato head? I don't even know who he plays for. Give us a clue.

can,t believe i have just turned down a free ticket for the game, HOPE I REGRET IT

 

[AdaBrummieblue]

If we had even a smidgen of form, an iota of belief, a microdot of passion, then we'd thump these. Unfortunately we have nothing to offer and will probs get tanked again. 'koff Everton.

Klaassen and Sandro to start. Calling it.

I'm just glad it's not on TV. I'm a bad nervy, with rage outbursts, watcher at the best of times. Don't think I'd cope today.

 

[lesbattersby]

Going to be a difficult game I feel. I'd like to see lookman starting today but he'll probably continue with Lennon. Hopefully who ever he plays gets us the win. Don't care if it's an og off somebody's ball sack. Just get the win to get out of the bottom 3.

 

[cromofo]

Please win

Score even ffs

 

[Who's_up_for_cumpkins?]

A wins a wins today. However being greedy the one thing I'd like to see is sandro to play, score, and start to settle. The bits n bobs I've seen from last season from la liga he's the type of striker, small nimble, technical I'd love to see make it at Everton. We've not had that many. Plenty of talismanic number 9, but few continental style forwards.
