Not necessarily the same injury for Gomez (no information given as to the nature of the injury, but the same leg.

A win in this knocks the fuck out of Arsenal…9 points, which equates as 10 with GD in our favour. That psychological jump will have an effect on them.

Of course Everton players will leave a bit in the tackles…but Virgil showed against Spurs that our team has a bit of steel. We can, we should beat them.

I would start Bradley even if Trent is fit. Bradley is more combative and that might be required.

Plymouth doesn’t matter. Our form vs Spurs is the benchmark, and I thought that was supreme.
If we replicate that level of intensity and football this will be a great night.
Absolutely buzzing.

Would also protect Alexander-Arnold from any further injury I guess.

I trust that Slot will come up with the right team and plan to win this final Goodison derby. With Gravenberch, MacAllister and Szoboszlai our midfield should be able to dictate the game. And I am sure Mo would like to have the matchball as the final Goodison souvenir!

Can’t wait for the game! After getting knocked out of the FA Cup I want another game asap to get it out of the system. A 9 point gap and having the overall record over Everton, on their home patch, will be a nice response.

Remember Denis Irwin, an excellent LB but was right footed, pity he played for the wrong team

Still doesn’t make the case for Elliott to play RB. He lacks the skill set to play there. It is too late to coach him into the role.

I genuinely doubt that Elliot will start at right back against Everton. Though Nunez might be at CB.
Who knows?

Elliot at right back is a particularly wild shout.

The order is Trent, Bradley, Gomez, then probably Jones, Quansah, McConnell in emergencies.

Thats what I said, if you read my 1st post, he doesn’t have the defensive attributes to play any defenders role.

That was Sithbare who made that silly assertation

We have such a poor record under Oliver though we are due a win under him.

Does Oliver know that?

Well sometimes they can’t do anything about it. Didn’t Coote even manage one win.

One of Oliver’s linesmen is the biggest knob.

I had a horrible premonition involving a mistimed Bradley sliding tackle and a red card.
Just writing it here so it won’t happen.

Last year, our season fell apart when we lost to ManU (FA cup), how we fare in this game will be telling imo.

As was made the point earlier to me we won the two after that.
