Sharp wit there, David. And Derek, you can bet your left nut he wouldn’t change it. If only he could find it. And Mark has talked me into his eleven. Anyone know if OBrien and AMN, well fuck, I will look it up. Yeah, the played together at Lyon. So Mark is onto something there. They were actually on the right together.

They will take it away after you announce it, or maybe Michael is just in on me. 😉

Yes, I just gave myself one to see.

Not that either of us have a clue what it might actually turn out to be, but hopefully, one day soon, Moyes will stumble onto his Best 11, recognise the fact and resist any and all temptations to then tinker with it…not holding my breath.

The only way Grealish would consider ‘going to No 10’ was if Burnham and Reidy were hosting a reception with a free bar…much too much like hard word for our laid back midnight jack

Note to eds. Is it possible to give your own post a thumbs up?

I think what I must’ve had at the back of my mind, John, was this that we reported in July: “The club announced a sweeping restructure that completely abolishes the traditional U21 Head Coach role.” — that went, along with Paul Tait. But now, guess what? Dave Hughes is listed as U21 head Coach… as well as Head of Academy Player Development. ps: Any chance you could click on Account (upper right) and add your Last Name to your Display name? Thanks.

No need for the insults Pep. You just pick soundbites you have read and work them into a post. Harmless fun i suppose.

John we’re above them look at the table

John Collins, didn’t get a reply button . If you didn’t understand What I said then toughski shitski w⚓

I hope it happens Paul

Yet they are still above us in the table?

What position in the table will we be at in May Joel? Do you think he will improve on last seasons 13th?

Dont assume mark you know Moyes is playing a game . I dont see Hackney getting in ahead of Harrison not just yet even though i fancy Hackney is hovering with intent . George will not start unless some late injuries and we dont want any of them mark. O Brien has no chance of playing ahead of KEENO i know that for sure . So get off the DRINK go to bed and wake up to our world Mark ENJOY.

Not with you there Jonathan. Can you explain your tactical thinking please.

Look, they’re a good team with an impressive manager. Theyve solved the inexperience issue with Martinez, Henderson and Wellbeck. Its a good side. It perhaps doesn’t reflect the crazy amount of money that they’ve splurged, but it will be tough. That said, they do still give away stupid goals, but it’ll need a fantastic rear guard effort to sneak this one. A 12.30 kick off doesnt help the atmosphere.

Good side Mark. Good 2 & 3, all 5 are interchangeable to suit tactical need. Will DM think that way?

Pickford Rohl Tarks O’Brien AMN Garner Hackney George KDH Grealish Barry (Assuming Branthwaite and Myko are out) We can win this.

Enjoy the day Rocco – it’s awesome!

He’s is trying to win… Again this is cliche ridden comment that I honestly think comes from fans that simply – for some reason I don’t understand- hate Moyes. Deferring he does for them is not good enough

You’re predicting something that’s irrelevant right now. He has us fifth with no striker (or one who’s missing so many others we’d be even higher than fifth?) and a paper thin squad. Who do you want ??

Superb stuff Mark. First 10 minutes do a veiled Norman Hunter and don’t get caught. Tomorrow will be about attitude. Those that GROWL loudest will win

I’m afraid I’m not watching the game Michael but I never get the feeling I’m going to see any inspirational content from the team but see two or three individuals who give me the impression they might get into the first team squad, Graham obviously, Olayiwola and maybe Carrington can take the chance that has been offered to him if he can prove that the long injury he has had is no longer a handicap to him.

Sleep well international Evertonian

Well i’ve read some rubbish on TW but this lot beats it all you have all give in long before the game starts . Well i believe Everton have a very good chance of 3 pts you see we are ok at manageing games and we will dictate the pace and tempo of the game for sure. You see we all know are team are fighters and can also play a bit. i’m not a lover of Moyes but you know he will have got right into this lot and we will run our socks off and we will see if Chelsea fancies it . I’ve said it before if you dont bring your A game then Everton will find you out i will tell you . UTFT and lets get behind them .

Patterson had a good game but at 21 he will probably never make the 1st team. Graham has pace but needs wide open spaces which he won’t get in the first 80 mins in the Premier League. None of the others stood out and for the last 20+ minutes it was all ‘boro. But a win is a win.

Get ya knives ready lads , we’re going to a gunfight !!!!

Like watching the 1st team. KITAP1

Thanks so much for the kind words, friends! Hey David, in that case, I’d probably have to move to Liverpool. 😉 The journey today—by car, plane, train and bus—took over 8 hours. And I need my beauty sleep!

Think this is classic moyes disinformation. He’s on par with Trump when it comes to mixed messages. He also said myko could play, norgaard could play some part too. Wouldn’t be surprised to see same as last week if myko can’t start !

We should find out a lot more about Everton, tomorrow. It depends on many things, like who starts? How many square pegs are used? If we play with enough intensity? Have we got enough to compete with Chelsea, if they really turn up? So many different things could happen, but we have been playing with a lot of spirit and togetherness, so hopefully we pick up another decent result tomorrow, and keep building on the momentum🤞

No reply below your question about Brazil and White, Jonathan, but I was just being facetious because of the relationship Moshiri, once had with Jim White, I remember watching the dammed United, and because I was once in the same environment as Brian Clough, I personally think it is near impossible for anyone to portray him anywhere near like the way I used to see him, operating mate.

Poor corner from that redhead. Why isn’t he in the area, sniffing out goal chances? Is it me, Dave, or do these U21 games look to be more competitive than we’ve seen in recent years? Both sides going for it. No shirking.

Scott you sound scared well so far Chelski have lost 3 nil against Brentford . Drawn 2 2 at home to Hull . Scrambled home 3 2 against the worst team in the prem at the moment Fulham . Hardly makes them world beaters come from behind the curtains theres nothing to be scared of.

Right now he has us at 5th spot and has drawn us away from relegation when we were at Goodison last season. He clearly loves The Club 💙⚽ I love Moyes. His past is Great with us.

Tell me any manager after Moyes first spell that has done better and won something? Go on, tell me.

Now 2-1 to the blues—3 guesses who scored—he’s got red hair!

If he plays braithwaite left back and Keane in the middle with Tarks I’m not watching it. I’ll go bookie and place a heavy bet on Chelsea . Like buying money

Teamsheet says Number 3 is Ezra Carrington but Dazza and Snods keep calling him Josh van Schoor, who should be Number 14 on the bench! They finally got it right in the second half.

I can Paul from he’s point of view, but then again would he want all the hassle and would he be allowed to. I can’t really see it happening though, I think we have had enough controversy to last two life times.

Yes Rocco. Hope you enjoy your trip my friend. You know you have to come every week if it’s a win ?

Absolutely how I see it mate. I fear if we don’t try and compete with them, and try and win, they will overrun us and could be a bad day. Think you have to make it a battle against them, they could rip us to bits if they are on form and up for it, but let them know they will have to fight for it at least.

Hi Tony, always read your posts as you’ve always got something thoughtful to say. But my curiosity is tickled when you speak about Brazil and white as if they’re different. I’d say they were as different as two different cheeks on the same arse. They both say what they are told to say or they end up like Matt le Tiss. Ps did you enjoy the film Dammed Utd with Michael Sheen as our Brian

Some astute people have used their own kind of logic, to say that nobody just writes off nearly half a billion quid, Paul, but I think these rumours have come from Allan Brazil, on talksport, but if they had come from Jim White, then I think a lot more people would have sat up and listened!

They were in a very different, difficult place when we walloped them last year. I’d expect a very different game this time. They have leaked goals, but the little RS seems to be getting on top of that. No ones expecting us to win, I’d like us to have a go to win it .

Isn’t this thread about tomorrows game ?

Professional footballers, don’t miss games because they got a dead leg the week before. Hopefully Jarod plays, but definitely not as a fullback

Come on Rocco, fuck the red off mate, and just get a big flag of The Gate!

I see Usmanov is being linked with buying us again. Can anyone really see this happening?

Hi Scott, not really negative but definitely a good dose of realism. I think that a lot of us are hoping for the saying ” a funny old game ” rings true for us tomorrow
