Match Thread Everton v WBA, KO 15:00 Sat 20/1/18

Wazza won't be rested. We now have the same issue Man U did i.e. shoehorning him into the side even though he can't run.

You know all about Man U don't you mate.

Leave it please.

Leave it please.

Come on though Groucho. Every post he makes is just a WUM attempt from an obvious man united supporter.

I would bench Bolasie for Walcott and start Lookman until bolasie gets fit

Id play bolaise at home. Get him match fit. Maybe keep him on bench and bring him on away matches until he gets fully match fit.

The Icelandic fella should be playing the 10 role. Needs to see more of the ball. The Wazza (as he's been more recently named) should be moved or rested, whatever.

Rooney does play ok at home against riff raff like these. Bench him against any top side or away matches.

 

[LEONARD]

Start cautiously and slowly, 0-0 after 37 minutes of ennui, Goodison is totally silent.

W.B.A now fancy their chances, and take a 1-0 lead on 43 minutes from a corner.

Fat Sam lays down the law in his half-time team talk.

We come out for the second half, and nothing really changes.

 

[Legend Barry Horne]

Pickford
Kenny Holgate Williams Vlasic
Gueye McCarthy
Walcott Sigurdsson Rooney
Tosun

Bench: Bolasie, DCL, Lookman, Jags, Niasse, Schneiderlin, Robles

Hi All,

Long time reader. Ill be at the game tomorrow for my first ever match at goodison park. Been a fan for over 20 years and I hope to god we win. Especially after the way we played against spurs.

On a side note, whats a recommended pre match routine to get the blood pumped for the game?

How’s this a wind up?

Plenty have said it, are they all Man U fans too?

Full English in town, 3 cups of tea (4 sugars) 19 bus to the match, and a few black beers in Frost's on Walton Road.

Please, allow me to take the credit for that!

However, I must give props to @Bob Latchford for his inspirational post way back in 2017:

I’m a big Theo fan, have been since he broke though at Southampton.
The wife also said he makes the team look less ugly which means she maybe won’t yap as much when the match is on.

Could I suggest the Lisbon pub? A fine establishment

Plenty have said it, you're right there and no, they are not Mancs.


But this one is.

He's always in here ready to slate Rooney but goes missing if Rooney scores.

They're out to get me Groucho

 

[diggerdestroyer]

For me he must go get 3 points. Defensively sound but with pace in attack.

Ive it all sorted as below. No need to worry.

Pickford. Kenny. Holgate. Keane. Id play mccarthy instead of cuco. gana. Rooney in midfield.Siggy as number 10. Bolaise. Walcott. Tosun.


Lookman main lad to come on. Snides if necessary for rooney late on to hold out for a 1 goal win.
