Subscriber RandoEFC+ Posted November 8 Subscriber Posted November 8 Lose this and I think over 99% of our fanbase will be united in wanting Dyche out. He deserves credit for keeping us up the last two seasons but this season he's the main cause of us having to worry about relegation in the first place. He's entering his Allardyce era now where he knows he isn't going to be offered a new contract at the end of this season so it's self-preservation. He's done enough in his time at Everton to paint a good picture of himself because he talks a good game. We did win at West Ham last season though so hopefully we can repeat it and chug along for a bit longer. Quote
Gunnersaurus Posted November 8 Posted November 8 @CaaC (John) predicted us to draw this game. He predicted us to win the league but never predicts us to win. I think someone needs to explain the rules to him. I think you get confused a bit easier after you reach that first century P.s. You know I love you John xx Quote

Administrator Stan Posted November 9 Author Administrator Posted November 9 I think our game will end up in a similar fashion as the Cup game recently. We'll get dominated for majority of the game. They have enough quality in front of goal to get the game killed off. We'll have a positive spell where we may score one or two, but by then the game will be done. I was surprised how strong Man Utd went in their game on Thursday though. But I think fans and their team will want to end on a win for Van Nistelrooy's last game in charge for now. Quote
Happy Blue Posted November 9 Posted November 9 Lose this and it's 4 defeats in a row Dias joins the injured list, we don't have single fully fit CB so might see Simpson-Pusey again, Stones has a late fitness test, 25% chance of passing it, we cant get to January fast enough Quote
Subscriber RandoEFC+ Posted November 9 Subscriber Posted November 9 Diabolical lack of quality on display from both sides. We've been the better team but we don't know how to create chances outside of set pieces. Similar to the Southampton game so I expect we'll end up losing 1-0 again. Lopetegui surely won't make it to Christmas. How he's got West Ham playing this poorly and short of confidence with some of the players he has at his disposal I don't know. Quote

West Ham's individual quality is so good. Even an average manager should be getting a tune out of them. I'm surprised West Ham opted for Lopetegui considering his performance at Wolves. Quote
Subscriber RandoEFC+ Posted November 9 Subscriber Posted November 9 Missed parts of the second half but looks like it continued in the same vein. Not a bad point but not a good one either. We've now played Ipswich, Bournemouth, West Ham, Southampton, Leicester, Palace and Fulham and only managed 2 wins. Quote
Happy Blue Posted November 9 Posted November 9 Walker & Pusey at CB no cover in midfield with Kova & Gundo, will be lucky not to get beat again today Quote
Subscriber RandoEFC+ Posted November 9 Subscriber Posted November 9 Brighton will fancy this match I think. If City drop points here and Liverpool win later I think Liverpool take over as favourites for the league to be honest. Quote
Reluctant Striker Posted November 9 Posted November 9 Ask any Wolves / West Midlands fan whether West Ham or Forest got their last manager appointment right, it would be 70%-80% for Forest. Quote
Reluctant Striker Posted November 9 Posted November 9 Liverpool vs Villa ? Feels like the wheels are in danger of coming off the extraordinary Unai wagon. He's taken us so far, so quickly, I think he will be immune from too much pressure for some time. But today, at very, very best Villa find a bit of form & squeak a narrow win, or battle for a point. Or, it gets embarrassing. Almost Man United style. Quote

Dave Posted November 9 Posted November 9 I said on here a month or so back that as long as we're not cut adrift of 17th by Christmas we will be fine. Our six fixtures before Christmas: Aston Villa (A) Newcastle (H) Ipswich (A) Man City (H) Brighton (A) Arsenal (H) Yikes. It's Bournemouth (A) and Southampton (H) before the new year. So we may be looking at 13 points at the end of the year. Quote
