  1. shit or bust now. throw the kitchen sink at then now.
  2. you feel it going to be one of those games. taking the game to a defending team is just not our strength.
  3. Big test this second half for the team. have to consider us unlucky to be 1 -0 down when Fulham are without a shot on target.
  4. Fulham have put a decent team out as well, so they will be up for it. Shame Iwobi isn't cup tied
  5. looks like strongest available line up - 3 at the back again.
  6. Fulham had to play 75min or so away in Newcastle with only 10 men a couple of days ago, and today have to travel up to Goodison. So if they are looking to put the best part of there first team out on the pitch, they may be so tired players come the second half. Tonight should be a good night to play them, make it a high tempo game for them.
  7. As he has a decent length contract at Leeds I don't think they are obligated to sell him cheap. However, it appears that they are obligated to loan him out to a Premiership club while they remain in the Championship. Really hope Leeds don't come back up next year, firstly becasue they are one of the clubs bitching to the Premierleage about us, but secondly becasue they are unlikley to be able to do fuck all much about it if Harrison what's another season on loan here. That might suit us better financially next season over committing to decent transfer fee. Harrison having the option to simply come here on loan anyhow, migth also help in Everton's negosiations. Hats of to those who got him to the club, as a shrewed bit of business getting him in a Everton shirt for the season. He looks like he is enjoying it, and is definately a Dyche type player.
  8. Going for Godfrey to even the voting up between him and Keane. We all where a bit apprehesive seeing the pair of them named in the starting line up, both slotted in and played with the consistency and confidence of week in week out performers - massive credit to them both. Godfrey saw the danger and was on it at speed to produce that goal saving tackle at the end of the first half - I think that made all the difference in this game, Burnley had nothing positive to take from that first half. If that goal had gone in, you feel a total different second half will have taken place.
  9. one of the good things about what might be the perception of 'Dyche ball' is that you can't see top 6 teams trying to tempt him from us, no matter how well our results look. I agree with Haf in the way the club should have a proper strategy for what traits they would look for in Dyches eventual successor.
  10. another confident 'get the job done' performance. all very professional. the lads that came in knew what was needed and slotted in well. The pressure has been taken away from the next couple of games.
  11. It's impressive how the goal scoring duties are being spread through out the team. would love to see DCL get a goal before he makes way for Beto.
  12. or both Godfrey and Keane step up to the plate and show they are important part of the squad. There is a big difference coming in to a confident team. on their day, both Keane and Godfrey have shown good things in a Everton shirt.
  13. I will not lose a minutes sleep if Burnley and forest go down or if Leeds and Leiceter fail to get promoted this season.
  14. If those four clubs had not make a song and dance about it, I don't think the Premier league would have bothered getting a independent commission to scrutinies us. so if we can take a maximum 12 point off forest and Burnley this season I would find that particularly satisfying.
  15. This game has the making of a bit of a banana skin, off the back of two good home wins, but a few suspensions and injuries coming at the same time and all being defensive type players. I would be playing on the fact Burnley are one of the shithouse clubs that complained to the PL about Evertons financial affairs that has led to us losing 10 points and now want to put the boot in and try and shake us down for compensation. These are one of the teams I really really want us to beat this season (along with Notts Forest). These fuckers could have casued this club no end of hardship.
  16. I think Dyche has to take a lot of credit in how he manages the players as human beings. I think he is pretty genuine and fair with them. From day one he has said he wants them to help make players the very best versions of themselves and cares about there well being. He is definately getting a lot lot more out of them than Lampard did, they all seem to be playing for him. I would love to see a match fit Dele get a good run of games playing for Dyche - Seeing him anywhere near his former self would be amazing.
  17. I was worried when he looked to be injured in the first half. Maybe the need game off might not be the worst thing to happen. Its a lot easier for a player to step in to a team who are playing well and full of confidence - hopefully that will rub off on those who have to step in to the team.
  18. I think Dyche is a better appointment than Ancelloti. I never really thought he was a great fit for the club and was really indicative of our owners poor judgement and lack of a coherent plan. He had a few months of decent results, but we didn't play particular good football under him and spending wise, possibly the season we ultimately overstretch ourselves. I am feeling we are finally building a team built on a good foundation under Dyche. A team and club we can begin to feel proud of again.
  19. Chelsea defenders will really fancy Beto around now.
  20. and results aside the only poor performances have been Villa away and Arsenal at home. he has to take a lot of credit for the effort and patience he has showed in getting DCL fit.
  21. we are horrible to play againt at the moment. Trippier having the ball nicked off him twice kind of sums up what we are currently like as a team. Beto was not for being pushed of the ball, the Newcastle defender just bounced off him when he tried to shoulder barge him. This team will be on cloud 9 after tonight result.
