Match Thread Everton v West Ham Utd - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[hktoffee]

Look, mate, I think you're being overly sensitive and missing the point. When you probably should have said, 'This is a knock out, so I'd play a strong team', you said, 'need to win if we want to progress', which is a given in a cup competition - hence the 'no [Poor language removed], Sherlock' type response. I take the proverbial out of good friends if they ssat stuff like, "I had a verbal conversation by telephone", so no need for you to be offended by this gentle rib-tickling. We're all on the same side, after all.

Argue non-English....just to beat the swear filter.

My fault. Let’s get back to the topic. Maybe there is not much room to play the backups?

 

[Nymzee]

I'm genuinely more excited for our cup games than league games just because I want to see more Niels.

Carlo looking to rest our main midfielders I reckon. Allan, Gomes, Rodríguez and Doucoure are a little too precious to risk.
For me, it will be pretty much the same line up that beat Fleetwood., with maybe Gordon starting.
Looking forward to seeing Brands latest find Nkounkou in action again.

 

[Wat Tyler]

Penalties this

 

[smileychap]

I'd take pens agains this lot (not literally, I mean the game turning out that way). JP's not bad on pens.

Like @Armaghtoffee says its on their website and it's a tenner to watch it mate.

Cheers.

Think we will win, not sure on score but hope its the 90mins, would not want pens v anyone

 

[Rudolf Hucker]

Hoping Carlo fields a full strength team for this one. Our best chance of silverware.

Outside of the 11 who started on Saturday, there’s only Gordon, Nkounkou & Holgate (injured) who fill me with any confidence. We still need at least 4 more in (& hopefully 8-10 out).

International break after the Brighton game, so time to rest then.

 

[DunctheDrunk]

International break.. most of our players will play and usually someone gets injured. Crossing fingers that it will not happen this time. 2xgames a week is a high risk

 

[Carloblues]

Would go near enough full strength

We need a cup, don't want to kill momentum and be boss to get one over on wrinkly head

 

[GwladysBlue]

Going to be another thought game this. They’ll be riding high after that win tonight.

 

[Tigger]

Did it get relegated?

Moyes Potential Replacement

Yep, like Mad Max 2 just as I thought. This thread is a waste land of hate and violence. Martinez..... Just walk away Lennon........ Just walk away Stubbs........ Just walk away Vitor.......... Please sign, and put an end to this madness and violence

Crikey thats some serious vault game.

 

[Abraders]

Tough game, hope we smash them.

 

[joe5494]

They looked good tonight. Gonna be an interesting game, I wouldn’t take a win for granted

 

[UptheTofees]

Wonder if James will play. I am torn on that especially with Brighton coming Saturday
