Bill Posted April 2, 2008 Report Share Posted April 2, 2008 Forget the last derby game this is the one we need to get back on track, a win will put us on 60 points keeping the gap between us and portsmouth with only five games left to go. 3-0 Yakubu 2 and Carsley.

EFCfanatic Posted April 2, 2008 Report Share Posted April 2, 2008 Wouldn't it just be typical for us to draw? I'll go for a tight victory. The Yak 77th min. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeO Posted April 2, 2008 Report Share Posted April 2, 2008 The way things are going at the mo I'm relieved we don't have a match against PSV tomorrow . Or would we still be flying if we'd beaten Fiorentina? Who knows. Anyway, if ever there was a "must win" this is it. None of our last five games can be classed as easy, even Newcastle seem to have found some form at just the wrong time for us. Brum away will be tough and there's Villa, Arsenal and Chelsea to face with a small and seemingly knackered squad. We have to beat Derby.

HonestJohn Posted April 2, 2008 Report Share Posted April 2, 2008 My only fear is that Derby have nothing to play for now so theres no pressure on them and how many times have we seen at team that are getting relegated pull of a shock result. Hope it doesn't happen at Goodison on Sunday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Posted April 2, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 2, 2008 16. 0. 3. 13. 6. 40. No wins out of 16 away games, drawn only 3, and scored only 6 goals against 40. There's no way they can beat us ..... is there.??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romey 1878 Posted April 2, 2008 Report Share Posted April 2, 2008 2-0 to the blues. Osman and Yobo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue 250 Posted April 2, 2008 Report Share Posted April 2, 2008 Can Derby beat us?....I'm afraid the answer to that is yes! Not only have we got a small squad, with injuries to key players, but we are having to contend with the mind set that!.We went out of europe, lost in a semi-final(Chelsea), have probably lost out on 4th place......there's a lot of failure in that little lot!! Moyes has got to get the team to now focus on that 5th place......a place we would have snatched at at the start of he season, that would be a huge achievment with our squad. Don't dwell on the past!....look to getting that 5th place....look to beating Derby! Neville, Lescott and Yakubu were abused last week, would be nice if a huge crowd showed them a massive amount of support! Sure we played crap last week.....but we still only conceded 1 goal as we have in the previous games where we were very poor ie Fulham and West Ham, our defence is hard to score against, Derby will struggle to score against us.......we will surely score a couple. Get the pride back......the Yak to score a couple. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

c1982 Posted April 2, 2008 Report Share Posted April 2, 2008 I'll be 1 of 20 at this game courtesy of Joleon Lescott. R kid's stag doo... - on the piss friday - Grand National saturday - Everton 5 - 0 Derby sunday Joleon sorted us 20 tickets out through links we've got at Wolves - still charged us though - I'm sure there'll be a signed shirt somewhere along the line though!!!

GMorrison183 Posted April 3, 2008 Report Share Posted April 3, 2008 0-0 draw or Yak pulling one out of thin air 1-0. No doubt we'll see Hibbert, Carsley, and Neville starting together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Posted April 3, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2008 Well if we dont win this one after the Fulham result we dont deserve 5th place, can't see us winning many more. A few draws might be all we can get out of the last 5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J*A*C*K*E*L*Z Posted April 3, 2008 Report Share Posted April 3, 2008 another reason for why it is so important to take all 3 points as it will pull us right away from pompeyas they are in FA semi's at the weekend and allthough it will just be a game in hand for them its more psychological and lets not foget they have no guarente that they will win there game in hand.

Randomness Posted April 4, 2008 Report Share Posted April 4, 2008 1-0 yak in the 10th minute or something, and then we make a shite team look good 2nd half................................... So Last Season's Team Then. And the end Carsley/neville get praise, and its more important to get the win. Now i'm going to go a bit out of line here, we havent performed in the last 3 games or got results. I EXPECT BOTH A PERFORMACE AND A RESULT!

adamefc1 Posted April 5, 2008 Report Share Posted April 5, 2008 We Should Win Comfortably 3 or 4 -0 Team Id Like To See Howard, Jagielka, Yobo, Lescott, Baines, Osman, Carsley, Fernandes, Arteta, Johnson, Yakubu Neville Wont Be Left Out Though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Posted April 5, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2008 Hibbert and Pienaar are injured but Johnsons back, so it should be that team with Neville at full back, Baines dropped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Posted April 5, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2008 ^^^ DONT YOU READ THE POSTS ^^^ read the post above yours, Hibberts injured. Blues manager David Moyes told evertonfc.com: "Things are looking a wee bit better. Andy Johnson did some training today, Victor did some training today. "Steven took a knock in the derby so he hasn't trained and Tony Hibbert has a sore hip". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Droobie Posted April 6, 2008 Report Share Posted April 6, 2008 ....like against Oldham . Yeah... I remember how we hyped it up before Oldham... but Derby this season has been woeful. If there's ever a team where we should be odds on winning against, they would have to be it. I hope that DM hammers it into the lads NOT to be complacent. We want a drubbing this match like we did against Sunderland. 5-0 time for us to kick it up a gear! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeO Posted April 6, 2008 Report Share Posted April 6, 2008 Derby will achieve the longest ever run without a win in Prem history if they don't win today. They've taken seven points from a possible seventy eight since they beat Newcastle last September. So why am I still nervous ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
