Match Thread Liverpool v Everton : Sunday 24th April 2022 : Kick Off 4.30pm

[judge]

As I've said previously, the sum of all our parts are far greater than Burnley's, but we don't match what we offer as a collective. They play more like a team.

As fans we've got very little belief regarding today's performance due to their performances; I hope they have as little belief otherwise it's already a loss.

The RS will play a strong team today as a win is vital for them with the hope they can bring key players off around 50-60 mins if they're comfortable.

I'm not sure that the sum of all our parts is greater than Burmey's. We tend to believe that our payers are better footballers than the evidence suggests (think Gomes, Gordon, DCL) and have done this for many years (Deulofeu, Besic, Walcott). I don't think we're alone in this. I can't see Premier League clubs lining up to sign many of the current squad when we go down and, unfortunately, looking at the respective fixtures and Lampard's limitations as a manager, i think we will go down. This lot are useless not through lack of trying/desire (they play football and, like 99.9% of people who play football, they want to win). They are useless because.....they're useless (and we've had/have useless managers to up the uselessness quotient)!

Win this and somehow these losers will go down as legends, COYB

 

[Caolam]

Does anyone remember when we were able to bring a knife to a gun fight, if only we had held on to that knife and not swapped it for a tea spoon.

 

[Khalekan]

It never fails.

No matter how dire our form might be at any given time over the past fifty years or more, I always wake up on Derby Day filled with optimism and excitement.

RS 1 EFC 2

Sky just said Everton have won just one of 44 derbies this century. Of course they could have said Everton won this fixture last season but that would not be derogatory would it

That’s not true though is it. I can think of three off the top of my head.

 

[Blue 1]

I ain't gonna torture myself with this.

 

[blueconverse]

Don't even feel normal derby day nerves. The players and board have really lowered my expectations

 

[Saint Domingo]

I honestly reckon we will let them score in the first 5 minutes and the game will be over as a contest by the 15th minute

Fully anticipating that we’ll concede from the first set piece

Out on the cocktails later with my brother who's a Red - hopefully I won't have chinned him by the end of the day.

COYB 1-1 to the good guys.

Well I mean that’s not even right is it. Since 2000 we’ve won far more than one. It’s probably one this decade (if the decade started after our win in 2010) or it’s two.

Yeah I'm like this, some people ae going to lose the plot later, focus on Chelsea next week back at Goodison, today isn't going to define our season.

 

[Saint Domingo]

Funny how our win last season is reported as somehow not a real one because there were no fans there but their title win also in front of no fans was the greatest title win of all time

Not just Sky but the Echo too, they will be desperate to publish some dirt to punish us

 

[BigDunc'sFod]

I'd settle for a tight 2-0 win today
