I expect us to lose but we could easily win.

I expect us to lose but we could easily win.

Yup. And if not, there's a very good chance of drawing.

Watching Dyche make me feel sick. Has anyone else noticed how he pokes his nose then wipes it on his bald head.

Suspect he does the same with his ginger lined crack when the cameras aren’t watching. (Getting my abuse in now before he ruins my afternoon!).

I watched the highlights of Everton’s win against West Ham and frankly, I’m shatting myself.

Everton will sit back in their half and press us very hard indeed in the midfield. If they gain possession, a long ball will be punted up to a big powerful quick player such as DCL. Then players such as Doucouré and McNeil support that break with pace, power and urgency.

DCL will hang out on whichever wing our fullback has left unguarded as he seeks to bully our defenders off the ball and create havoc. Perhaps Veltman and Milner just sit back and we don’t commit as many players forward?

Dyche has us worked out. The ****!

For heaven's sake people, get a grip!

It's Everton. They're a poor team. Yes, they had a good result recently at West Ham. They lost the game before that, and the one prior they beat Bournemouth. In the previous month, they lost their two home games (Inc Luton). Drew with Sheff Utd. Good result away at Brentford.

In short, they've had 2 good wins away from home this season while their home record is dismal. Overall they've played 10, W3 L6. Goal diff of -4.

Yep, DCL has found some form recently. But come on you weaklings! Gird your loins and get stuck in, and remember, you can tell them all that we stand or fall for Sussex by the sea! Let your hearts be gay FFS!

Except we are always crap against crap teams.

 

[Colonel Mustard]

Except we are always crap against crap teams.

No we're not.

 

[The Grockle]

A narrow loss today I feel. Not convinced we have an answer for teams who sit back and look to counter.

Would just be good to keep the injuries down for next Thursday

 

[Hugo Rune]

No we're not.

I’m confident that RDZ has learnt the lessons from the last Dyche schooling. Will his new ideas work? Let’s see.

 

[Mustafa II]

One thing's for certain, this is definitely going to be a football match.

 

[Marty McFly]

Leaving Bedford area at 8.25am. Heading for Ship & Mitre.

A cracking boozer!

 

[Mexican Seagull]

Clocks globally finally aligned so a breakfast kick off here and Prime will deliver yet another superb matchday experience and the latina football "experts" will be drooling over us again, through with less preference for our brazilean contingent. Time to walk the dog in the balmy morning sunshine prior to kick off. We should win this one!!

 

[Eric the meek]

One thing's for certain, this is definitely going to be a football match.

It might not. It might get postponed for some unforeseen reason.

 

[chickens]

It might not. It might get postponed for some unforeseen reason.

Like the team coach ending up in a different city miles away?

 

[Maxx]

Bart starts

 

[Affy]

Need a big win today. Feels like too long without one in the PL. Plus we owe these buggers

 

[KZNSeagull]

Good side that. We will WIN 3-1

 

[Mustafa II]

Bart starts

f***ing amazing!

Well done lad, let's hope he plays a blinder.

 

[Mustafa II]

Very strong side.

A giant wave of optimism washes over me.

COME ON ALBION

 

[Garry Nelson's Left Foot]

How do we think we're going to line up? 3421?

 

[fly high]

Good side that. We will WIN 3-1

Would prefer a 2 nil win, finally keep a clean sheet in the EPL this season
