Match Thread Everton 2-0 Liverpool - Chat, Match Report and MotM Poll

[GN!]

I want us to get stuck in.

Wake me up when it's over.

Not watched a derby since the Origi one where I left the house just before he scored thinking it was a draw, the law of averages must mean we win one sometime ffs, we must have one of the worst local derby records out there. Would be tempted to put Garner at RB, move Doucoure to the middle and maybe Gomez in the advanced midfield role - this would all be meaningless if we just hoof it obviously

GK - Pickford
RB - Garner
CB - Tarkowski
CB - Branthwaite
LB - Mykolenko
CM - Gueye
CM - Doucoure
CM - Onana
LWS - Mcneil
RWS - Harrison
ST - DCL

433, stifle them, out work them, out run them, win your personal battles and then help your teammates win theirs.

If Dyche the kopite can shithouse us any kind of result on Wednesday night, then im all aboard the ginger-megasnore bore bus til the end of the season at least - he will have earned that tbh.

….they are dynamite in the top third, especially with Jota back. If Pickford has a worldy and we ride our luck I can see us needing to score 2 goals to have a chance of getting anything.

DCL won’t play, Beto can’t play so I expect Chermiti to start. I can’t see us getting anything.

A draw would be good for two reasons but it is hard to see.

 

[tonyhorne]

I was going to say we should, for a number of reasons, just field a second-string team but then I realised that's all we've got ...

3-5-1-1. Don't give them any space in the midfield and use the width of the pitch. Sit with 5 at the back when under pressure.

Que the VAR over-correction in this game against us

 

[edge]

I know one thing I don't want young in the side, one slip up and it's a pen or sending off after all this publicity.
Realistically they should win , they are better than Chelsea and look what they did to us?
we should just get right into them , and hope we get a sneaky goal of two.
Going for McNeil and Harrision 2-0

 

[hallamblue]

Just hope Dyche doesn't repeat the plan against Chelsea of pushing onto them. They score a lot of their goals on the counter or after mistakes. If we sit in a low block and ask them to break us down we have a chance of a 0-0. If DCL is available his hold up play will be vital otherwise the pressure will be too great

 

[Evertonthat]

I just don't want to see us try and take them on at their own game and get destroyed (ala Chelsea). I'd take a full bore Dyche ball 0-0 right now. That derails their title hopes and nudges us 6 points clear of Luton with a much better goal difference.

Be really pleased with a point, especially with them having pretty much a full side available now.

Cant play Young in this, but ive a feeling Dyche will just be stubborn and start him anyway. Diaz killed him at anfield, he's already a walking yellow card in most games, even more so in this. Im no Godfrey fan, but he has to start this one I think.​
