100%.

Phil at false 9.

Not a bad shout, that

So why is he out Einstein. You get an one game suspension for 2 yellow cards, which he has derved.

Totting up they said on the telly the other day, I can only go off that

gvardiol has been error prone and at fault a lot recently but with Ake beside him I feel more confident.
However:
Walker isn't at it at all
kev/foden partnership is leaving us open atm and proving haaland any chances
savio see above and zero goal threat



Not a knock either as any team we put out atm would be similar but again 50% isn't functioning atm.

 

[Blue Bogey]

That would be a good result.
A clean sheet should be the priority .

Everton - Premier League

Last 12 - Wins 3, Draws 7, Defeats 2
Goals F-10 and A - 7 (4x 0-0 in last 6 games)

They use Back 5 of Pickford, Young, Tarkowski, Branthwaite, Mykolenko
Young is 39 and we have criticised Walker for being too old now. City need to be careful of Tarkowski at corners he is a corner set piece king even more than Gabriel is at Arsenal.

They do have Harrison and Ndiaye on the wings and I expect them to try and exploit our fullbacks. I think we need to exploit their fullbacks as I consider that to be also Everton’s weakest area.

 

[Eaststander1]

It goes without saying that we need to win this game ....

 

[St Helens Blue (Exiled)]

Ake starts. We win
People simply dont realise what a player he is.
Criminally underated.

True mate but Kev is more rested that gundogan at the minute and I just don’t see Pep throwing the kids in randomly?

 

[Bluemart]

I just want a performance from them that show they care, recently some of them seem to be playing half heartedly.
I know we have had injuries beyond belief but we can’t keep making excuses.
Nobody should play if they are not fit, fill in with the kids!

 

[stonerblue]

Half past fucking seven boxing day morning mate.

wankers.
