Everton V West Ham United

away in Merseyside, I would consider a point a result

Kouyate also doubtful

But looks like Winston is ok

#WHUFC Adrian, Reid, Cresswell, Nolan (c), Tomkins, Carroll, Noble, Jenkinson, Collins, Amalfitano, Cole
#WHUFC subs: Jaaskelainen, Jarvis, Zarate, Vaz Te, O'Brien, Demel,

So we play Nolan, Amalfitano, Carrol and Zarate if Downing, Sakho, Song and Valencia don't make it.  Give Carlton a go last 20 minutes if needed.  Sorted ...... COYI 


Oooops, didn't see your last post Campo ..... almost correct

West Ham United Adrian, Reid, Cresswell, Nolan (c), Tomkins, Carroll, Noble, Jenkinson, Collins, Amalfitano, Cole
Subs: Jaaskelainen, Jarvis, Zarate, Vaz Te, O'Brien, Demel, Lletget

Everton: Howard, Hibbert, Jagielka (c), Lukaku, Mirallas, Naismith, Distin, McCarthy, Barkley, Osman, Coleman
Subs: Robles, Eto'o, Besic, Atsu, Browning, Garbutt, Ledson

Decimated team. With those 5 players missing we have gone from a side with pace and energy always looking likely to score back down to last season's lumbering slowness with no goals in it

Depressed of Sidcup

This team will win nothing at Goodison Park ...

Do I even want to watch this ? Where are all our good players ?? I did not hear about Song being injured.

Positive thinking please lads, they've got injuries too and are the draw specialists.  A point would be good, but I'm going for all 3   COYI

A draw would be amazing, Jiggs.

Swans one up..

hello ID, same comment, hopefully the new chaps will be out to prove a point and AC looked sharp in the last 5 mins a couple of weeks ago.

Thank you, Jesus for not letting Naismith take advantage of that sitter!

Hey, Rich. So far so good

HAHAHA What a fupping dive, disgrace to Everton!

I hate Lukaku..

Lively game!

The ref needs to get hold of this dirty diving game that Everton are playing.  Still believe we can get something ..... COYI!!  

scrappy goal to concede. Shit defending with most of our back four getting drawn towards the ball leaving Lukaku on his own, he looked offside when the first shot was struck, some will argue it was deflected but he still looked in an offside position when it was struck, he was left alone in the initial build up and then again for the rebound.


Apart from a couple of dodgy looking fouls by them did anything else happen in that half ?

Did Nolan touch the ball ?

All I can get is a radio comm, sounds like we deserve to be trailing although still in with a shout unless we concede another.Looks like BFS is playing the best formation he can think of with what he's got left, but Jenkinson is the only one supplying anything to Carroll, and that's just because Hibbert ain't good enough to stop him. Dunno what else we can do with that bench -RVT on for Cole. maybe? Is that really an improvement? A point from this would be quite an achievment and I'm not optimistic.
Oh well, COYI!!

shitty game in the first half...

I know we have a few injury worries... but I will never understand how we can develop a winning formula and then just completely ignore what makes us successful...

Carroll, Nolan and Cole?

What is this... throwback thursday and no one told me? We don't win games playing Cole from the start and we don't win games when we play the kid of tactics that have a front line involving Carlton fupping Cole...

You remember those glorious days of a few weeks ago when I was writing about us having 5 players in the box looking for goals and waiting for the ball to be crossed in...

Today...

we had two people... Carroll and Cole.... there was a beautiful ball played in from the left... you know who e had in the box waiting for it? Cole... on his own...
The result? What do you think? A goal kick... Cole still has the touch of a rapist... Carroll is way of match pace and our tactics are just set up to get nothing out of this game at all.

Everton ain't looking all that good but we're allowing them to play, giving them space... playing the ball straight back to them when we do get possession...

Someone needs to sort this shit out before the score as it stands becomes a result...

not offside according to the lino

actually thinking about it... perhaps this is a smart decision tactic-wise...

we're going to be losing our best players in Jnuary for the African Cup of Nations and we lose the other decent ones like our loan players Song, etc at the end of the season...

so we're trying to get us and the team back in the mindset of a bottom half of the table relegation battle...

might as well start with the performances to justify where we'll end up...

that's exactly what we needed... Carroll nods the ball down to Cole's feet... lightning fast he swivels on a sixpence and slams the ball into the back of the net...


oh wait...


No... Zarate dribbles in from midfield... shoots and the deflection puts way out of howard's reach... kinda makes up for the site defection that gave Everton their goal...

you didn't really think Cole would be our savior did you?

ZARATE!! You beauty! They all count, even the jammy ones!!

Tomkins is a complete twat... players should be sent off for that kind of bullshit.

You'd think someone who's just been up in front of the beak would be looking to stay out of trouble... not be twitting about looking for an Oscar nomination...

gonna take a miracle to get us out of this shit now...

totally gifted them the game after actually stepping up and getting back on top...

bunch of twats...
