HK85 Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 Probably expect us to see the home fans off win a win Friday night. Last game as a home player at Goodison for Lukaku and Barkley. Wouldn't mind seeing Lukaku get that golden boot so hopefully he scores. Schneiderlin is back training as well which is good for the spectacle. Could watch just him for 90 minutes.

Subscriber Dan+ Posted May 10, 2017 Subscriber Share Posted May 10, 2017 Expect us to lose but we don't generally do too badly against Man City. Unsure how it's ended up on TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toony Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 Title will be sorted this weekend and wouldn't be surprised if the relegation battle was as well. Got to fancy an improved Swansea to beat Sunderland which would mean if Palace beat Hull it's all over before the final day, which would be a shame.

True Blue Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 Buzzing my tits off for tomorrow, win and it is done. Hope the lads are fired up, with West Bromwich in a disaster form without a win in the last five we should look to end it. If by any means we draw/lose we could hold it for the weekend if Spurs slip or win it on Monday against Watford. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
True Blue Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 Just now, Cannabis said: I'd be shocked if you don't do it against West Brom as they've been poor for a while now. It'd be nice to win at Stamford Bridge but I'm sure Conte would rather it was done and dusted. To be honest from the fixtures after United away i only feared we would drop points against Everton away, now we are 7 clear and even if we drew all our remaining games it would be settled. Think the boys will be fired up and get it done, we can then rotate the squad a bit ahead of the Fa Cup final. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a season for Conte if you get the double and to think he seemed to start rather poorly. Last manager that did the double with Chelsea got sacked.

Lukaku yes, but for me Barkley is easily replaceable. From the outside, I can sort of understand why people think that. Unless he plays a 60 yard assist or puts one in the top corner from outside the box he doesn't feature much on highlight reels. But he is vital to our team. Since the turn of the year anyway and when our form picked up. Gylfi could well be his replacement (we'd still need someone else) but he doesn't have the qualities Ross has and vice versa. Think they'd be perfect together, actually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give me Gylfi any day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well yeah, what other big games are Everton ever involved in? Im not saying he's a bad player or that he doesn't have his moments but he is not a top level footballer. I don't even think he's Everton level. Maybe, but only just! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big games are entirely dependent on the situation you're in, surely? Swansea's game against us on Saturday was a big game for them, not us. Games for us against any of the London sides aren't big, there's absolutely nothing there, no rivalry, hardly anything at stake unless in the cup, which Ross was excellent in against Chelsea btw. They're about as big as a game against West Ham. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously, I'm not having a go at Everton. I genuinely believe you should cash in because you can get better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He plays the occasion rather than the game against Liverpool, always gets caught up in it. He's not the first to do that and won't be the last. That will come with age and more experience. I know you aren't, I've had similar talks with mates who support others clubs a few times and I always say unless you watch us consistently you can't really tell how good and important he is to us.

Administrator Stan Posted May 11, 2017 Author Administrator Share Posted May 11, 2017 think a definite loss on the cards for us on Saturday. Morgan and Huth both out. Drinkwater out for the season. Which means our defence will probably be Benalouane and maybe Amartey/Fuchs at CB, Chilwell at LB. Gabriel Jesus, Sane, Silva might have a field day. Think Aguero is out.

One season without a trophy and you're gone, hopefully after all these managers Roman learned a lesson. What's worst is that we finished 2nd Not to mention we sold Joe Cole, Deco, Carvalho, Ballack, and Belletti. And our board only replaced them with....wait for it....Ramires. It's no surprised we struggled immensely. Our board made the same mistake in 2015, failing to strengthen after a title win. Because we win the title it papers over the cracks of our squad's frailties. This led us to make insane panic buys in January for Torres and Luiz. Praying to fuck the board have learned their lesson this time around as we are in need of strengthening in the summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schmeichel Simpson - Benalouane - Fuchs Albrighton - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Chilwell Ndidi - Amartey Mahrez Slimani - Vardy Could be a disaster. Could work. Similar to the side that played that second half against Atletico. It's a different scenario though admittedly. If we go 4-4-2 with King and a partnership at the back like Benalouane and Amartey I think we'll get battered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
