This is one of those games where if we get off to yet another slow start, it'll encourage them. See the Arsenal game for details.

We should win, but it'll be a tough one if we make it hard for ourselves in the first 30.

Just come out the blocks fast and press them high up the pitch early on
 

Who Isn't getting on the bench today very interesting Lennon McCarthy Barry jags surely Valencia is as one of or only attacking options
 
Does anyone know of any pubs by goodison showing this game? Haven't got a ticket but will be having a bevy by the ground before the game
 

...I know it's a cliche but there really isn't any easy games for us in this league. I know we thumped City but generally our matches have been very tight and we are right to not underestimate any opposition. Saying that, I'm feeling more positive about our team than I have done in a long time but I would never take a football match for granted and we have to respect Bournemouth.
Slow starts all the time though. If a team get their noses in front like Swansea did they can hurt us.

I get the feeling on the thread there's a lot of disrespect for Bournemouth and that isn't wise, imo.
 
No mate, we should be going into this game absolutely terrified of the super confident Bournemouth who are coming here according to you full of confidence expecting to easily beat us


It's not last year yanno, were actually good at home again mate not one of the worst in the league, but yeah Bournemouth fresh off the back of shipping 28 in the last 12 games and us off the back of two games against saints and city where we won 7-0, i can totally see how Bournemouth will be arriving fully confident of the result.

See you at full time mate, where if we as i expect have had a pretty big win then you will no doubt have a multitude of excuses about how Bournemouth are actually crap, how we got lucky, how the wind effected Bournemouth (or rain, or sunlight or clouds), or where the park end made Koeman make team selections thus removing any credit for the performance.

On the rare chance you would actually give credit after it ofc, then fully expect you within 12 hours to be finidng something else to slate the manager, the club and everything about the team about.

Carry on mate, your doing a sterling job.

But hey we could lose it as anythign is possible, in which case you will be on using it as much as you can do to support all your negative posts about the manager, whatever makes you happy i suppose
You ok?
 
From the BBC match preview - "Bournemouth will travel to Goodison Park with no great expectation that they'll end their record of having lost every game they've ever played there." Uh oh - the scene is set for us to 'do an Everton'! TBF we should expect to win today, but I hope the team don't go into with the attitude that they only need to turn up to collect the points. I think we've seen an end to that post-Leicester, and they've seen the benefits of putting in a shift. More of the same please Blues!

It's like someone put exactly the same points through separate @Eggs and @davek filters. The two results are above! ;) :lol:

Plus they haven't won in 2017 yet either...1-0 Bournemouth it is then!
