NewEnglandFox Posted 15 December 2015 Posted 15 December 2015 Judging by evertons forum, they are sh*tting themselves & apparently aren't playing well & are poor defensively. Tim Howard is a terrible keeper. They should be rightfully fearing our firepower. However the team and fans are probably very close to breaking emotionally as well as they're coming off 4 league draws. 3 games ago was the Bournemouth 3-3 where they went ahead in stoppage time and then Bournemouth came back. 2 ago was Palace in which they had the most chances but were only able to put in 1. And last weekend was Norwich when they could have scored 5 or 6 in the first half, only scored 1 and Norwich equalized very early on in the 2nd half. I think if we go up 2 they'll fall apart.
CharlieCharles Posted 15 December 2015 Posted 15 December 2015 Going to be goals goals goals.... Neither team is great at defending and both teams are good going forward. Everton 2-3 Leicester
ajthefox Posted 15 December 2015 Posted 15 December 2015 Kasper Simpson, Benalouane, Morgan, Fuchs Mahrez, Kanté, King, Albrighton Vardy, Ulloa This will be one of the toughest games of the season. With their attacking threat in Barkley, Deulofeu and Koné and an in form physical presence up top in Lukaku this is a bad time to break up the consistent CB pairing due to Huth's suspension and it's a blow to lose his physical strength to help counter Lukaku. However, we've got more than enough to play our way in midfield and goals in our team with the form we are in. I can see it being a high scoring game, decided by one goal. Pretty much this really. I think it's all about the first goal. If we can keep them quiet early doors, get to half an hour at 0-0 and then get our necks in front I see no reason why we couldn't go on to win. But if they get ahead and sense weakness in our new CB pairing, Lukaku and Co could score a few and it could be a difficult afternoon. Definitely goals in it. Gonna be optimistic and go 2-3, Vardy and Lukaku both on the scoresheet.
foxes21 Posted 15 December 2015 Posted 15 December 2015 One things for sure, that Delefeu won't have faced a more formidable fullback than fuchs this season.
Fox42 Posted 15 December 2015 Posted 15 December 2015 Both teams have blitzing attackers and leaky defences (apart from their left backs whom are both formidable). 3-3
My Nads Posted 15 December 2015 Posted 15 December 2015 One things for sure, that Delefeu won't have faced a more formidable fullback than fuchs this season. That's why I'm going for a comfortable 2-0 win. I thought Everton looked a good team, but recently they have been bang average. It will be easier than I thought a while back.
My Nads Posted 15 December 2015 Posted 15 December 2015 Nothing at all to worry about here... Norwich 1-1 Everton Everton 1-1 Palace Bournemouth 3-3 Everton Everton 4-0 Villa West Ham 1-1 Everton Everton 6-2 Sunderland Arsenal 2-1 Everton Everton 0-3 Man U
Grewks Posted 15 December 2015 Posted 15 December 2015 Nothing at all to worry about here... Norwich 1-1 Everton Everton 1-1 Palace Bournemouth 3-3 Everton Everton 4-0 Villa West Ham 1-1 Everton Everton 6-2 Sunderland Arsenal 2-1 Everton Everton 0-3 Man U You say there is nothing to worry about....but at the start of the season that would've been an expected/ok return of points for us in those games.
Vacamion Posted 15 December 2015 Posted 15 December 2015 We should be beating mid table teams like these.
jaqo88 Posted 15 December 2015 Posted 15 December 2015 2-2 draw, Lukaku/Barkley , Vardy (2) Both attacks can be devastating at times, and both teams will go for it, Everton are at home so the onus is on them to push forward and I can't imagine a game without us providing a huge threat A point closer to survival
EGBFitness Posted 15 December 2015 Posted 15 December 2015 Everton are a good side and will be hard to play against at their place. I would be happy with a draw for this one. I think if we can stop Delafaou we have a good chance, hopefully Fuchs has him in his back pocket. They are a threat all over and Barkley and Lukaku will cause trouble but think they mainly come through Delafaou
AjcW Posted 15 December 2015 Posted 15 December 2015 Some WEIRD suggestions in here! - We just played and beat the champions with an attacking line up - We've won our last two away games 3-0 - We've scored 9 goals in our last 3 away - Everton are leaking goals No reason to change things, just King and Benny in. Simples.
narboroughblue Posted 15 December 2015 Posted 15 December 2015 We play a narrow back 4 and that isn't ideal against Delefeu who plays very wide. Albrighton is going to have to put in a big shift to help Fuchs out and with Baines now back the same could be said of the other side. Going forwards, as has been the case all season, I expect us to cause them problems but concentration and helping our full backs out could be key. Expect it will be a great spectacle though.
simon789us Posted 15 December 2015 Posted 15 December 2015 Tough game would take a point but hoping for 3
GingerrrFox Posted 15 December 2015 Posted 15 December 2015 Personally would go for Inler over King. Playing against Barry and Cleverley energy isn't going to be an issue and with Kante alongside him it's going to be reduced even more. Inler is similar to Drinkwater in that he has an eye for a pass and has a better range of passing than Kingy, with Everton's fullbacks known for pushing high and wide those cross field passes and through balls in behind to space will be of much use on Saturday.
Guest Posted 15 December 2015 Posted 15 December 2015 Both teams have blitzing attackers and leaky defences (apart from their left backs whom are both formidable). 3-3 we don't have such a leaky defence any longer do we?
Great Boos Up Posted 15 December 2015 Posted 15 December 2015 It's also Arsenal v Man City. We could break away from the pack. Imagine Christmas Day and 3+ points clear at the top! They will score; so lets go hard for the win. What have we got to lose ?
foxfanazer Posted 15 December 2015 Posted 15 December 2015 This is our toughest game since Arsenal imo. Got some dangerous attacking players and are pretty solid in most positions. You just can't write us off though
dylanlegend Posted 15 December 2015 Posted 15 December 2015 Main worry is first game without Huth.... Massive loss. I think I'd go with Benny for Huth and King for Drinky
Julian Joachim Jr Shabadoo Posted 15 December 2015 Posted 15 December 2015 I don't think we'll have any trouble putting 2 or 3 past them. 3-1 to us, Lukaku to get his, Mahrez (x2) and Vardy
desertfox2 Posted 15 December 2015 Posted 15 December 2015 One things for sure, that Delefeu won't have faced a more formidable fullback than fuchs this season. This. If Fuchs can stop delefou and Kante barley we can definitely win this as that's Lukaku without service. I'd play Ulloa mainly for defending set pieces.
