markjazzbassist Posted January 11, 2015 Report Share Posted January 11, 2015 We have to break the Tony Pulis curse. Lost to crystal palace for heavens sake. Strong lineup and go direct for the jugular.

Newty82 Posted January 14, 2015 Report Share Posted January 14, 2015 Always a top fixture in the Newton household. My 15 year old step son is a Baggies fan. This is a game we can rip them apart in if we play with the intensity we have the last few games. However, Tony Pullis worries me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Romey 1878 Posted January 14, 2015 Report Share Posted January 14, 2015 Another one? I know, we're saying it every week. But this, and Palace, really are must win games with the ones that are coming up for us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elston Gunnn Posted January 14, 2015 Report Share Posted January 14, 2015 (edited) I know, we're saying it every week. But this, and Palace, really are must win games with the ones that are coming up for us.Not literally true, but close enough to literal truth to be uncomfortable. Most important is that we build on momentum from last three matches. Stoppage equalizer from Lukaku to force replay. Then Naismith header to come back against City. Then inspired Cup play - the better team playing 65 minutes down a man. So, even without a win in last 3 matches, all 3 showed significant improvement from mostly self-induced deep hole [abetted by some tough ref decisions and maddening injuries]. Maybe it's pathetic to feel as if these most recent 3 "feel like victories," but we can remember how truly pathetic our play had become. Emotionally and psychology, we were looking into the relegation abyss. These last 3 constitute a big step back from that abyss. A loss to WBrom, and we're looking over the edge again. A tie, even a miraculous late equalizer next Monday, won't suffice. Such a point in the table might, sure, ultimately keep us up, but anything other than 3 against WBrom -- WBrom at Goodison, for heaven's sake -- will feel like a loss and will be, not just feel like, a momentum destroyer.

markjazzbassist Posted January 14, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2015 Really want the win and think we can since Pulis hasnt molded the team to his complete style yet and hasn't brought in players, but he is such a bogey for us. He has our number, quite worried about this one to be honest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cornish Steve Posted January 15, 2015 Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 Only when we're against the wall do we seem to really kick into gear. Maybe, at kickoff, the scoreboard should tell the players we're one down and have only ten men. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paddock Posted January 15, 2015 Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 This really is a must win game, we simply HAVE to win this, if we don't I fear our season will slide into total disaster. That being said, I think we will win and win well. COYFMBB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The part of the country I come from suffers from plenty of stick and mockery, totaly goes over my head, infact we probably tend to have a good laugh at it ourselves, if it were true I'd maybe be a tad more offended.But as I havn't got six fingers on one hand, didn't marry my sister and did actually get an education......I tend to not get worked up over it. Sorry if it offended you. I do tend to see the funy side in everyting, can be a problem I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newty82 Posted January 15, 2015 Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 I always thought 'bin dipper' was a reference to Liverpool fans more than scousers in general? Christ, we up here get called 'sheep shaggers'...I can handle that one. The one I can't handle is 'inbreds'. That's the one where I point out I'm originally from Birkenhead!!! Then all the scouse stuff starts...wallets, jackets, cars, wheels...Over the years, I'd be an angry little bastard if I didn't have a sense of humour!!! Pinch of salt stuff. On the game...looking forward to it as each day goes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeO Posted January 15, 2015 Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 Regional stereotyping can sometimes be funny. Found out today that the consultant surgeon who chopped my neck to bits a year back actually owns a farm and has been seen driving a tractor (shouting hello to a patient he recognised) in a nearby town recently. Nurses who I saw today confirmed his part time "job" (which is probably more like him being a big time land owner). Local saying, "I can't read or write but I can drive a tractor," couldn't be further from the truth. All harmless I think if there's no malicious intent.

ForEverton2 Posted January 17, 2015 Report Share Posted January 17, 2015 The lineup Im pulling out of my hat. Robles Stones Jags Baines Coleman Besic Barry Oviedo Barkley Naismith Lukaku I really have no idea how Martinez will set up against West Brom. With McGeady out I would have Coleman in a midfield position, but I think this has been attempted before and it did not work well. I'm not really sure what the status is with Mirallas. Is he playing through an injury? can he go a full 90? doubt it. It will be interesting what the setup will look like. I have a feeling that West Brom will play long ball to Big Vic and try to test our back line. Everton need a clean sheet if they want to say they have been improving these last few games. It needs to start now rather than later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elston Gunnn Posted January 17, 2015 Report Share Posted January 17, 2015 Robles Coleman Stones Jags Baines Besic Barkley Lukaku Naismith Mirallas Kone I'd like to see exactly this lineup (if Mirallas is nearly fully recovered). But I assume RM will continue to start Barry, who, admittedly, played better v. WHam. It was probably on the Barkley thread that MC11 made the point several times that Barkley should play ahead of the DM, but not as far advanced as an AM. If I understood MC11 there, I agree. Anyhow, if Barry's in, and as Kone appears not quite 100% "match fit" [but probably fit enough to take up a spot on the bench....], I'll guess Barkley, Naismith, and either Oviedo or Mirallas will play the "fluidity" thing, with Lukaku mostly ahead of them. Maybe Barkley will in any case generally play as MC11 suggests, so that more often than not he will be more central, so that at times Everton will almost be in a 4-2-1-3, or even 4-2-1-2-1. Then Oviedo or Mirallas to sub for one of the "fluid 3." Maybe Kone a late appearance? Still hope to see Garbutt again soon, but maybe for now Oviedo is ahead of him.
