FA Cup Final: Everton vs Chelsea

[Goat]

I predict I will be utterly hammered and will spend the first 20minutes of the game trying to regain my sight. Like the Semi.

It depends how much these Chelsea Rent boys want to win. If we perform and they dont, its ours, if they perform and we dont, its theres. If we both perform, its up to GOD!

As long as our midfield aren't overpowered I reckon 1-0 to us Lescott from a corner.

 

[Nebbiolo]

Defensively, Chelsea are poor these days. But they've got a sound attack. Defensively, we are excellent. But our attack is less good.

GOALS!!

Everton 3 Chelsea 2

This'll be a cracker!

 

[Rugby Toffee]

Wasn't it two 0-0 draws in the league....

 

[Dixie Dean]

I predict Chelsea will come out firing in the first 10 minutes of the match, Drogba will hit the post on one attempt, and Everton will look sluggish. Then out of nowhere, Osman will score right in front of the net, Everton will take control of the game, then Saha will score a brilliant header in the 2nd half, making the final 2 nil. Everton will pass Chelsea ragged, wearing them completely down.
If this sounds like a very recent European match, let me know.....

[Azzbot]

80/1 Hibbert 1st goal scorer

 

[Robert Jarvis]

Notwithstanding our injuries, I predict we will field 11 players.

 

[Basil Fawlty]

It'll be a tight game I reckon 2-1 to us though

 

[bluebloodinmyveins]

I refuse to jinx us with a prediction.

 

[Robert Jarvis]

Exactly, glad someone sees it my way as well.

I never make predictions on results, leave to bookmakers who have of course have Chelsea as favourites.

from NEVILLE: FA CUP WIN IS ONLY THE START | Football Transfer News, Football News, Fixtures, Results, Match Reports, Stats



Phil Neville insists winning the FA Cup with Everton will be his greatest achievement.

The former Manchester United player won 10 major honours at Old Trafford, including the FA Cup, Premier League and Champions League.

But ahead of Saturday's clash with Chelsea, the Everton skipper said: "My theory throughout my career has been that the next one is always the greatest, and this does feel as though it will be the greatest.

"If I win a medal on Saturday it will be the best medal I have won.

"In terms of individual success, for me to lift the FA Cup will be my greatest ever honour, particularly for this club.

"People talk about me being a good Everton captain but for me to be mentioned among the likes of Kevin Ratcliffe and Brian Labone is an honour.

"They are players who have not just won the FA Cup, they have won league championships and European honours, so that is what I have got to do to be mentioned in the same breath.

"But it would be a great start to win the FA Cup and it is time this team had something to show for its efforts.

"I drive to training in the mornings and the music's blasting away and you do visualise yourself holding up the FA Cup. You have got to believe you're going to win."

Neville will lead out Everton to face Chelsea for their first final in 14 years.

And he added: "In those 14 years we have probably not lived up to the past and now, under David Moyes, I think this club is going in the right direction.

"We can restore Everton to where it belongs and that is at the top of English football.

"Regardless of the result on Saturday this has got to be the start of a sustained period of success. It has got to be.

"It is not going to be the end of the journey on Saturday win or lose. This is just the start."
