What pubs you all going to tomorrow night before the game.

 

[carlos21]

Need a clean sheet here, if not then a 3-1 win.

I agree you there mate.

 

[D410]

If Yaya wakes up we've had it.

 

[The Hibbert Agenda]

Martinez saying absolutely the right thing.
And then there's the responses.
Idiots, all of 'em.
I wonder if any of them have memories of the games referenced.

 

[Kankurette]

I am absolutely terrified.

ETA: re one of the comments on Twitter, Roberto is saying 'we' because he's the smegging manager. I refer to Everton as 'we' for games in which I was not yet alive or a supporter. Jesus. Of all the things you could get mad at him for.

No shame in that. Yaya, Sergio and an ex kopite up against one of the most porous defences in the EPL this season.

Still if we win - It will be a some night and feel like a cup win in itself without the shiny stuff at the end of the game.

Any news on Jagielka? Is he going to be back or is Bob saving him for the FA Cup match?

 

[Blue Cheese]

Well done @ijjysmith, have respect for all of you who try and do these, can't be easy.

Ijjy has been our good luck charm in this comp this year so lets smash these blues.

Figured Dag would need the man advantage to keep it interesting

Need a 2 goal cushion to even have a chance in the 2nd leg

Martinez has said he isn't ready to start, so I imagine he'll be on the bench and then start in the FA Cup.
