Subscriber Dan+ 1,918 Posted November 27, 2017 Subscriber Share Posted November 27, 2017 We'll be narrowly beaten I reckon. I think Puel will be a lot more conservative than Shakespeare was. Shakespeare was unlucky in a way last year because our side against Spurs was hugely depleted and with about half an hour left we were actually well in with a shout of getting something - but Kane got their third and it just finished us, we'd clearly fired them up and they ripped us to shreds. I wrote a lot of those players off after that. This time I think we'll be tough to break down, but they'll eventually do it and that'll be that. Unlucky for him to have those two home games in a row and then even Burnley this weekend is hardly the side you want to face at the minute, but shit happens, we didn't win the league through dreading games. 0-1 courtesy of Kane, continuing his utterly predictable record of scoring for fun past us. I think he's got something like 9 goals in 4 games against us or something daft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn’t right yourselves off against Spurs either. You have a good side and are more than capable of taking points against the top sides at home. We've got a shocking record against the top sides this calendar year. In-fact the 3-1 win over you is the only time we've taken any points off any of them. Thankfully I think in the long run we'll fix that, Puel didn't have a bad record against the bigger sides did he? I'm not hugely concerned about us for a while anyway really, Puel's got a decent longer term track record and he's not had a chance to get his own players in yet. While I won't tolerate shite like what happened in this fixture last year I accept you won't see the best of us for a while yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subscriber RandoEFC+ 7,662 Posted November 27, 2017 Subscriber Share Posted November 27, 2017 I don't care how bad we are or whether we have a manager. Expect nothing less than a win against West Ham at home managed by Moyes. As I say it I know I'm a stupid cunt for expecting anything other than a 3-1 loss from this excuse for an Everton side.

Panna King 1,012 Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 7 hours ago, The Palace Fan said: Wenger has been surprisingly quiet following his criticism of Sterling's theatrics in the area given how easy Ramsey went down in the area against Burnley. Because Ramseys was a 100% penalty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no way that's a natural way to fall. The defender took a risk by keeping his arms out but Ramsey definitely tried to deceive the ref there.

Rick 2,276 Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 I think it'll be 2-1 to Everton. Watford should go into this game with confidence, they've more than enough to trouble Utd. Unfortunately, I can see another loss for Newcastle, West Brom will sneak it. Spurs to drop more points by drawing with leicester. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honey Honey 3,767 Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 We have to win tonight at West Brom, having lost at home to Bournemouth and Watford we have to make up for it with an away win, otherwise we are getting dragged into the dogfight. 3 defeats in a row since abandoning the Rafa way and trying 442 instead. Time to go back and accept 442 is too defensively vulnerable for a side like ours. Personally I would try Merino or Shelvey behind Gayle, but I think Rafa will go back to Ayoze Perez behind Joselu. Joselu will score 5 goals a season at this rate, time to drop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Stan 18,383 Posted November 28, 2017 Author Administrator Share Posted November 28, 2017 Really not looking forward to tonight. Don't think it'll even be a contest for Spurs. Kane and Son to score. The former with another hat-trick probably. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honey Honey 3,767 Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 Rafa makes 5 changes Darlow in for Elliott in goal, Shelvey and Diame out, Merino and Hayden in, Perez replaces Gayle, Mbemba replaces Manquillo. Howay the lads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subscriber Dan+ 1,918 Posted November 28, 2017 Subscriber Share Posted November 28, 2017 Schmeichel Simpson - Morgan - Maguire - Chilwell Mahrez - Iborra - Ndidi - Albrighton Okazaki Vardy Fuchs not available because of his daughter's birth. Gray dropped. Iheanacho not in the XI yet youngster Hamza Choudhury is. Puel not a big fan by looks of it. I've not been impressed myself to be honest. It's similar to the sort of side Shakespeare would name but I'd like to think the football will be a lot better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We started ok but got worse as the half went on. West Brom were getting better but weren't great. Got to show some character now. If we lose this it will be 5 in a row with Chelsea away next.
