EFC-Paul Posted October 14, 2008 Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 (edited) It all depends on which Arsenal team show up on the day if they play anything like they did against Hull and Sunderland we might be in for a point if we fight it out but if they turn it on like against Porto quite frankly where fooked Edited October 14, 2008 by EFC-Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeO Posted October 14, 2008 Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 OK lets check the form guide. Hull City 2 Everton 2 Arsenal 1 Hull City 2 ...foregone conclusion surely? Away win banker . Seriously; Arsenal are vulnerable at times (although rarely against us) but if they play their "A" game and we play to current form it'll be a long 90mins. If they have one of their frustrating days and we suddenly kick into some form we could possibly get a point, but I won't be putting any money on it .

The Regulator Posted October 14, 2008 Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 on the 0.001% percent chance a freak 6 or 7 nil thrasing goes to either team this will be our hardest match thus far.... the benefit of teh international break is also a downpoint when you consider arsenal are looking to get as high as possible in the rankings this year, with the RS chasing and chelsea going strong they'll need every win they can get.... It'll be one of 2 outcomes dependant soely on what arsenal bring: a draw, being a 1-1 and very dull affair, arsenal will play shit and we'll stay in possesion but pose no kind of threat, barely scaring a battle hardened defense with our stammering passing and eccentric hoofing style or a win, in which case we will get raped plain and simple, arsenal will bring the a team and the a game, adebayour and persie will start out with some glancing wide shots and well get lucky off a long range effort from osman or arteta, provoking the beast, who will then counter attack and score 3 or 4 with a good 20 minutes to spare to make us run around and get knackered, wenger possibly adding insult to injury by sticking vela on, a young talented propect who against our defence would probably become top goalscorer in a single game. the 0.001% is if we have miraculously recovered our previous form and shoot out of teh starting blocks with a unfettered focus to win, and decimate an ill prepared arsenal with a flush of goals, if it does go in our favour, imagine a 3-2 with arsenal pushing us to the last minute, that would be a good game, set us up well for manure.

The Regulator Posted October 15, 2008 Report Share Posted October 15, 2008 (edited) The Blues were faced with a daunting start to the 2005/06 season, with Champions League qualifiers against Villarreal to contend with as well Premier League matches against Manchester United and Arsenal in the opening weeks. The summer arrivals of established internationals Simon Davies, Per Kroldrup and Mikel Arteta were followed by deadline-beating deals to secure the services of Andy van der Meyde, Matteo Ferrari and Nuno Valente. But as the manager worked to add further quality to his ranks, a spate of injuries coupled with the need for the new faces to settle on Merseyside led to a poor run of form, which resulted in the Toffees missing out on the group stages of the Champions League and then losing out in the UEFA Cup to Dinamo Bucharest. But domestically, the side's form picked up in October - buoyed by a 1-1 Goodison draw with Chelsea that ended the champions' 100 per cent start to the season. that's taken from here: http://www.evertonfc.com/david-moyes.html We finished 11 that season with an arguably weaker team than we have now, just thought it was worth thinking about given the poor start to this season and the similarities with the highlighted text Edited October 15, 2008 by The Regulator Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mac Posted October 15, 2008 Report Share Posted October 15, 2008 I can see us getting something from this, our league away form is pretty damned good and my royal blue specs are well and truely on. 2-1 to us. ATB Mac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamiemaher85 Posted October 16, 2008 Report Share Posted October 16, 2008 Gallas, Sagna and Bendtner are also all out. Good news, but still isn't enough for us to even pick up a point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rubecula Posted October 16, 2008 Report Share Posted October 16, 2008 I don't expect anything from the next two games. But I am willing to be pleasantly surprised. It has happened before and it will happen again. It would be nice if this was the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Regulator Posted October 16, 2008 Report Share Posted October 16, 2008 They have definately lost 2 key defenders in sanga and gallas, and bendtner isn't a great loss but it means he'll have fewer options up front. Fabregas and Van Persie are also doubts, but not great ones, we will probably be facing: Alumnia, Toure, Eboue, Clichy, Djourou, Fabregas, Diaby, Walcott, Denilson, Van Persie, Adebayour Thats still a pretty good team but then subs wise your talking: Fabianski, Song, Silvestre, Nasri, Ramsey, Vela and Bischoff (still recouperating) If we can hit em hard and get some good tackling football in well do well to keep em at bay let em flow with the ball and do what sunderland did, bring plenty of men behind the ball so attacks are stubbed out, tire out their players and then start attacking around the hour mark. a 1-0 to us would be a great acheivement.

MikeO Posted October 17, 2008 Report Share Posted October 17, 2008 Anichebe, Castillo & Yobo (and possibly Jags ) out injured/sick.
