Everton Pre-Match Thread

[BlakeTheBlue]

Apologies if the wrong place but am in the US for this -anyone know a website that lists where games are shown?

Being such a good lad, i wouldn't rightly know of such places... But if i did, i would suggest you type Wiziwig football into google and take it from there :D

I'm too optimistic for this one. Don't like that feeling.

youve won nowt yet, and you'll have one hell of a game at goodison. your overconfident on here youve l earned nowt from this season?? it will bite u on the bum like it did us...

Where do you get the idea that we are overconfident. You people delude yourselves about absolutely everything, don't you. Go and light a fucking candle.

I am just hoping Martinez and the curse of the 5-3-2/5-4-1 doesn't strike. Seems like he is less keen on an Alcaraz and Stones centre back pairing so he went for three at the back vs Southampton. With Barry ineligible he may look to play a similar way and use Baines and Coleman in more advanced roles so I think our 4-4-2 will expose that and we will find space in behind with Aguero running the channels.

 

[sambo86]

I'm just glad the way we beat Palace- so fuck souness and his shit banter about how we should have put on a show. The fact that the performance was solid and professional until the ends means we have complete focus as a similar performance I believe will beat Everton. If we'd have won 5-2 for instance - complacency would creep in added to that we'd have had our defence breached twice. As for getting excited I think we all are deep down- why wouldn't we be- we just handle it differently- some show it in over confidence and others like me keep it contained and put on realistic front as we know it wouldnt be surprising to go there and lose 1-0. But anyway keep the faith boys- we've waited for this for a long time- the players have their mojo back and sergio looks desperate to bag a couple. 2 titles in three years is what dreams are made of. CTID!!

 

[Chrisdunk]

We better not bottle the fucking title. Chelsea have already bailed us out immensely and now we have the backing of more than half the country.

Haha who is this baby? Signs up the day after Chelsea slapped their bums to tell us we're overconfident? After they've been welcoming the team bus, crowning their team of champions, writing poems and talking about fate, destiny, god etc for weeks!

And best of all he comes on with trophy counts in his screen name as if that makes him better than us. The level of butthurt this guy/girl is showing is immense.

I can't see overconfidence on here all I can see is delight at having the chance of winning the title back in our own hands. There's a huge difference between the way both sets of supporters have acted these last couple of months.

and so say all of us,not one person associated with mcfc ,takes anything for granted ,any Liverpool fans who think we are over confident or arrogant,understands nothing of the mindset of city fans ,its only Liverpool,utd,and arsenal,fans
who seem to have no understanding,of our mentality,funny that,.
I suppose that's what sitting in ivory towers for decades does for you ,lets hope we never ,end up with our heads up our arses

Hi Guys,

I'm an Everton fan and I've already done a few replies in this thread....

Just been chatting to a lot of Evertonians through the day on grand old team forum (Everton forum) and general feeling is below from the forum.

"Honestly I hate lfc so f*cking much, their fans, manager, players. I luckily don't live there and still hate them, that fat [Poor language removed] of redmentv I just wanna [Poor language removed] on his face. I feel for what it must be like for the blues living there having to put up with them, and blues living in liverpool hoping for a city win shouldn't even be questioned, it's the right outcome to hope for. The joy it will bring me seeing kopites crying end of the season and just to know our game vs city influenced it, I would f*cking love it." - Matthew mcdonnell

"None of us want Liverpool winning the league and we all want Everton to do as well as possible.
Messed up that it's ended up like this." - ijjysmith

"No one remembers who comes 5th/6th/7th they only remember who wins the league, it's a sacrifice we should be willing to take. We beat Hull we finish 5th simple, we lose to City we stop the RS from winning the league. Hull will be worrying about their Cup Final in 5 days time when we meet them at the KC.- Muzumbu

"It would have been so much simpler if flippin' Kompany hadn't set up that goal at The Pit" - Khalekan

"I know it's very unlikely but can you imagine if Newcastle got something from Arsenal tonight?" - snipellis11

"A Newcastle win and we have to beat City, like. It completely changes everything. Unfortunately Newcastle look as likely as winning at Arsenal as they do on have a reasoned non delusion view on their place in english football." - Allezfan

"I will never want us to lose a game, but i must say that if City beat us and win the league on goal difference, well :-)" - jrj

"They could, but realistically us beating City would give them massive impetus and I just can't see them throwing it away again.
Then again, I couldn't see them losing to Chelsea either. All I know is that at this stage I want Liverpool stopped from taking that title at all costs if Arsenal win later." - Tubey

"Call me a bitter Evertonian, but if Arsenal win tonight I'll be enjoying a verse or two of Blue Moon on Saturday" - snipellis11

So as you can see guys were not looking forward to Saturday ourselves.

Correction, our captain wasn't crying thinking he'd won it with 5 to go

Your belief in Everton is great, I hope they don't roll over as most liverpool fans believe, would leave a sour taste to be honest, however, your gut is telling you the right answer, you fucked up big time Sunday letting us back in, we won't mess it up again laAaaaaa

 

[Pam]

we have the backing of more than half the country.

Although no fucker in the media is willing to admit this. Jose's reaction to the second goal says it all, though. They have made themselves very unpopular in many quarters.

 

[Marvin]

Lee Probert has been appointed as referee

Haha!
The irony of it.
Seem to remember your boys being a tad confident till yesterday.
Talk about calling the pot black and all that.
Confidence is something most of us have had very little of over the last 40 yrs....
It must be pretty miserable having to rely on your Evertonian buddies to bail you out of this one!!

 

[stan bowles]

Everyone getting ahead of themselves again. This is Everton away - a place we've really struggled at in recent years with a manager who knows how to set up his teams to beat us. This is going to be a so tough. Everton will produce a reaction to their recent defeats and we better be ready for them. We'll need to be right at it from the word go.

 

[Vincents Tackle]

I'm predicting a week where all the Liverpool pundits and journos come out with comments designed to put the pressure well and truly on us by trying to highlight how disappointing it would be if Everton didnt give it their all on Saturday.

I imagine this will be started by Carragher tonight once he has finished slating Mourinho and Chelsea.

As we've seen, this crap makes fuck all difference. Mourinho stated he would play a weakened team. Liverpool knew that. It would have been a big boost to them. Mourinho duly obliged - and he still won comfortably.

Is distin out?

Who else is expected to be out with injury or suspension?

Barry will be a big miss for them been immense for them

 

[Tricky_Trev]

Would be fucking ace if Arsenal win tonight. Don't want Everton getting a pre-match boost.

 

[Rammyblues]

Agreed for me Barry has been the difference for them and without him provided we turn up, provided we don't make stupid mistakes, provided we want the 3 points I can actually for once, without the hatred Moyes used to instill in the players, we might just suceed.

Yep. Their captain wept tears of joy with a full five games to go. Thousands of them have taken to chasing down the team bus before every home game, singing we're going to win the league and setting off flares. We didn't do this for the last few games of 2011/2012 until the thing was won.

I bet they've been mithering the Pope to persuade him that their foregone conclusion of a title win be accorded formal miracle status. Also,some of them will have been to Lourdes no doubt to give praise and thanks to the Black Madonna for making them champions with 3 games to spare.

Clearly, it was their manifest, chicken counting destiny to win the league on the 25th anniversary of Hillsborough. I wonder if Juventus will win their own league whenever the 25th anniversary of Heysel is.

They may still win it, of course, but fewer and fewer people will be able to stomach that.
