Everton v NUFC 23rd April 2018

As it's our next game, maybe it's time to discuss our winnable match against Hippo Heed's overpriced lot. We get an early goal and their fans will turn as a lot want him out and his defensive football.

One talking point also is the choice of ref. It's in the link.

Definitely winnable. Everton have won 4 in 16 in the league, we have won 4 in 4 but I accept that might be a distortion of perspective. We have won 8 in 16, our 3 defeats against their 8. They could argue we have lost on every visit to the North West this season.

Since Southgate is going, so that Shelvey does not risk injury in the summer, I hope Rafa starts with Merino and Hayden in midfield, maybe start Clark with Lejeune in defence. In any event, it would be nice to see Slimani start. Personally, I would like to see Murphy get a run out too.

 

[Paul Kannell]

Good chance for Rafa to showcase what he's done here before he moves there in the summer.

I shouldn't say this but in my mind we start favorites for this one

 

[crooktownmags]

That said a point would be good

 

[Harry's Boy]

I always want to beat them. Mate of mine supports them so ‘friendly rivalry’ always heats up round about now.

 

[Toon_NoMatterWot]

Ive a feeling that Slimani will get a start in this one with him being the only change from the last 4 winning games.

With games running out and the need to impress Rafa on making an offer, I reckon he knows Gayle's limitations now.

 

[Toon_NoMatterWot]

I called this last night and for once get Rafa's line up spot on.

 

[Rexn]

Looking at the Everton line up, you have just got to wonder what Rafa would have done with the talent they acquired and how much they spent.

 

[Paul Kannell]

Awful game, should be 1 up mind, awful pass from Perez.

 

[Mcnamee67]

Thank feck for the half time whistle

 

[Toon_NoMatterWot]

Been shit but we're still in this. Thought Everton were gonna score just before half time but if we get one, their fans will turn.

 

[officemonkey]

Can Perez or Lascelles actually hit an accurate pass?!

 

[Paul Kannell]

Yes they both can, you obviously haven’t watched them much.

 

[Toon_power]

This one is boring indeed till now. I noticed i watched my son playing fortnite....hope 2nd half will be better!

 

[officemonkey]

Yes they both can, you obviously haven’t watched them much.

Watched them all night and they’ve both been shit.

 

[officemonkey]

Bramble was more composed on the ball than Lascelles. Suppose he talks a good game though so everyone creams over him.

 

[officemonkey]

Perez and Lascelles will no doubt score now.

 

[Paul Kannell]

Worst Everton side in years this and we’re so casual and not AT IT, fucking wake up and show some pride

 

[Paul Kannell]

Diame done his job tonight, Shelvey been poor
