way down south Posted 31 December, 2016 Share Posted 31 December, 2016 Really looked forward to both previous games, expected a draw against spurs and a comprehensive win from the west brom games, shattered by the results and the manners in which we got them. And now no vvd and the dreaded fonte Maya partnership of last season, an out of form and confidence Forster, a misfiring forward line, jeez! Guess its time for a whipping. I say 3-0 but more likely worse, and by the fat PR*ck too. What a sh*tty week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

washsaint Posted 31 December, 2016 Share Posted 31 December, 2016 No doubt, large rotation but more of the same negative, dull, ponderous crap that we play with virtually no shots. I don't understand....at the start of the season we were creating loads and it was wasteful shooting causing us issues. But we were fast, attacking and good to watch for a number of games. All seems to have gone backwards since then. Doesn't matter who we have up front they will have no service and we will play so slowly that it will give Everton time to reorganize and stifle us. You look at WBA - they broke with pace when countering and looked dangerous. Us - we just looked s***e. Biggest miss will be Boufal. Tadic is awful right now and Martina should never play for us again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M271 Posted 31 December, 2016 Share Posted 31 December, 2016 I thought I read some where that Boufal goes after the Everton game. And Redmond should also be available after his 1 match ban. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lighthouse Posted 31 December, 2016 Share Posted 31 December, 2016 This has turned into a must win game for puel now i fear....... we simply must get a result It's nothing of the sort, don't be a wet lettuce. We're 9th, in no danger of going down and wont be sacking Puel any time soon. I'd go with Forster Cedders - Yoshi - Fonte - Bertrand Clasie - Romeu Redmond - Boufal - Tadic J Rod I know it will be 4-3-3 with JWP in the middle but that's what I'd do.

vectraman Posted 31 December, 2016 Share Posted 31 December, 2016 We are in a rich vein of ****e form. Our best player is now suspended, can't shoot on target, and can't hit a barn door with our crosses. 1-0 Saints written all over it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect away at Swansea at the end of Jan will be the guillotine fixture if we have exited the cups and had a dire month in the league. They'll let him see us through those cup fixtures and take stock after Swansea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TwoPints Posted 1 January, 2017 Share Posted 1 January, 2017 Didn't Everton slap us 7-0 up there once? I believe it was 7-1. I was there for that as I was for the 7-1 thumping by Liverpool. I seem to recall that the Liverpool result came a couple of weeks after we beat Man Utd 6-3 at home. I swore never to go to Souseland again after those two results and I've been true to my word. It seems to have worked as we haven't (yet) let 7 goals in up there since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Posted 1 January, 2017 Share Posted 1 January, 2017 Win and all will be forgiven. Not so sure. The majority of the complaints are to do with style rather than results. I'm not sure a win will solve the problems we've got or answer fan complaints (unless, of course, Puel rips up the tactics we've been using recently).

Our best player is now suspended, can't shoot on target, and can't hit a barn door with our crosses. 1-0 Saints written all over it! Only way I can envisage this happening is if we somehow keep it to 0-0 at half time. Everton haven't been much this year and they will expect to hammer us after the WB result. if we stay tight and the players/crowd get frustrated, you never know. Having said all that and as much as it pains me, Everton to win 2-0! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

benjii Posted 1 January, 2017 Share Posted 1 January, 2017 It would be good if Clasie is fit. He was our best midfielder in recent weeks. Assume Boufal won't start (if he is available?) seeing as he started the last two. I'd be tempted to go with a front three of Long central with Rodriguez and Sims either side. Everton aren't the fastest team and that front three could cause then some problems. They will hit it direct at Lukakau which is a worry without Virgil. We need to accept he will bully Fonte and Yoshida and make sure we've got people ready to win second ball. I'd be tempted to play McQueen, for a bit of extra height, in midfield to do some shielding.
