[Milk]

So according to some on here we needn't bother turning up and just give the points to city? That's the spirit !!

Jesus .......

Jesus .......

Yes mate?

Prediction is an optimistic 2-1 to us, after going a goal down. Equaliser just after half time and a very late winner

For some reason I feel this will be a high scoring game. 3-3.

0 - 2 to the Eve

Rooney 1 Baines 1

Come on Everton

Replace Klassen with Davies for this one I think, and I suspect Sandro will start if he's fit. Would really like to see Lookman given a go in the first half though. We'll need some pace on the counter tomorrow.

I was half and half with Klassen and Davies tbh.

If Sandro isn't 100% he shouldn't play. If he is, I would put him in there for Mirallas.

can see rooney havin' an absolute cracker here in my magic crystal (meth)bowl. 3-2 win. c'mon!

Pickford
Martina Keane Williams Baines
Gueye Schneiderlin
Klaassen Rooney Sigurdsson
Sandro
​

Hoping Sandro was given the game off v Split to regain full fitness, while Schneiderlin and Klaassen only played a half each (Klaassen an hour) and Sigurdsson should have enough to give us a good 45 minutes before being replaced by Davies or Mirallas or Lookman. Defence didn't have to do anything against Split and should be all fully fit.

Pickford
Keane....Jags....Williams
Davies.......................Baines
Morgan.....Gana
Klaassen
Rooney...Sandro​

Depending on how the game pans out I can see Sig, DCL & Martina being introduced within the final 20 minutes.

No doubt DCL will play from the start Ronko's love child.

No doubt DCL will play from the start Ronko's love child.

Think he'd be better off saving him until both he and Sigurdsson are on the pitch together, though I don't disagree with you.

 

[Nymzee]

No way would I start Martina tonight Jesus wept.

 

[cromofo]

We need Sandro and Lookman/Mirallas from the start. We're effed without pace.

I can see Pickford delivering some nice balls on the counter.

In Ronko we trust.

 

[ad4amt]

INTO THESE EVERTON, DESE ARE SH**E DESE........

2-0 city

 

[yakublue]

I think he'll start the team that finished the game against Stoke.

Koeman will start DCL because the system he wants to play needs a target man and he's the closest thing we've got.

Sigurdsson to come on after 60 mins.

I feel confident in our defence and if we can limit them to 1 goal we might sneak a point or 3. Feel a lot less confident about us going forward but we do have players that can make things happen so who knows.

COYB.
