Vs Everton build up

[Mattshark]

we ain't mighty far from it ...... you seem to be quite happy with our form this season ......who cares if we raise are game for big matches ......we should do it for every game........they way your talking is as if were on some hot winning streak

I'm pretty sure results show we haven't done that.

Derbies are won by the hungrier team - end of.

They wont be hungrier than us. Theres not really any logic or past history that supports a defeat.

Well their is form, we need to show far more spirit and determination than we did on Saturday. If not we are in trouble.

[Chris]

Well their is form

Very true. We've only lost 1 at home all season and they've only won 1 of their last 7 away games in the League. Doesnt really support an Everton win.

Derbies are won by the hungrier team - end of. Look at how they beat Spurs - I'm sorry I'm just calling it like it is. I wish Kenny spent his transfer budget more wisely & I could actually have happy thoughts about my beloved football club for a change ffs!
We are heading for a 7th or even 8th place finish in the league which the Carling Cup & FA Cup combined cannot hide! It's not good enough & anyone who thinks it is, is absolutely crazy...

If we do a cup double then I’ll consider the season a success.

I don’t think we’d have made much of an impact in the CL next year anyway so for selfish reasons I’d be happy with the two cups this year instead.

And I don’t need lectured on the significance of CL qualification, I know how important it is.

Yes but we have also only won 4 at home and they have are in significantly better form than we are at present. This why we really need to up our game, anything but a win will be bad for us.

Imo Bellamy will not start this one as he only had 2 days of rest and I think Maxi is lost "soul".

I personally expect Downing and Kuyt to start instead of those 2.

although i think Kuyt will definitely start. Has great record vs Everton

I agree guys.

I have a feeling that Kuyt & Downing will come in as Bellamy & Maxi will be benched. I also think that Carroll could be benched again and Adam start in midfield.

Edit - Carra will come in for Coates too.

I know, wasn't saying we'll win, just theres not really any logic behind saying we will lose. They are going alright and dont concede many, all their good results are at Goodison though.

I don't think we'll lose, unless we play like we did at the weekend. I think a draw is very likely though.

I really hope he is benched not only because he has been piss poor lately but there is a real danger of him seeing red in this game

Dowd is ref and he has been known to love a Red, only 4 this season but 12 last

----------Reina--------------
Kelly Skrtel Coates Enrique
------Gerrard Shelvey------
Bellamy ----Suarez----Maxi
----------Carroll------------

He's definitely a walking red, much like he has been for most of the season. And if Dowd is that red card happy then the clumsy ******* won't finish the match.

My team:

Reina
Kelly - Skrtel - Coates - Enrique
Spearing
Henderon - Gerrard
Suarez - Carroll - Maxi

Good team that
