Can is going to get targeted big time here. I hope him and Clyne are back on their game. Also, Moreno needs to not leave massive gaps in behind, Delofeou will expose him.

I think that's the best 11 we can put out in the most sensible formation. Can't complain here.

This could be a very memorable Derby for the neutrals & the winners.

Our defence is shite, as we know, there's looks weak as fuck with that side, so we could well see a silly scoreline.

I'd prefer Rossiter to Lucas, more mobile, better passer, better going forward. Still, I think Lucas will do a good job.

I was worrying that Rossiter would play & then be sent off though. I think it's a genuine concern with the type of player he is, the age, & the fact he's a local lad, & don't doubt it influenced the selection.

 

[Jack D Rips]

Would have to say that their defence doesn't look all that clever either. But their midfield will probable do a better job protecting it than ours will for us.

3-2.

McCarthy/Barry == Milner/Lucas

I see the two teams being pretty much even but our combination of Coutinho/Sturridge/Ings being superior if they turn up

 

[Halmeister]

We will hardly get in their half to test their defence.

 

[Leo]

We'll win 3-2.

 

[cloggypop]

We will twat them. It's what happens in the derby.

 

[Halmeister]

Rodgers has only won one derby. And he had Suarez then.

 

[Halmeister]

They haven't beaten us for 5 years... we went through a similar run in the 90s. This is where they turn it round. Our players are shit, but not only shit, gutless. Best we can hope for is a draw.

 

[Red Mullet]

Studge came on as a sub and scored the winner, didn't he?

 

[cloggypop]

Everton have won 3 out of the last 31 league derbies.

No that was an equaliser. 3-3

 

[FoxForceFive]

They've won three of the last thirty one derby's.

Three out of the last seventeen at Goodison.

You're really taking this mantle on, aren't you?

Maybe that is so. He does seem to have a good head on his shoulders though.

Someone has to.

Isn't there a private thread somewhere for you, Arn and RedNinja to stroke each other ?

Never underestimate the power of that which cannot be mentioned...

I'm not as bad as them, surely!?

CAREFUL!!!!!!

That's it. You've ruined everything.
