Aidan Posted September 10, 2017 Report Share Posted September 10, 2017 We've looked awful so far and I expect that to carry over to this game. It's a shame, a better run of fixtures could have made this team gel so much quicker. Im expecting United to absolutely walk over us.

Cornish Steve Posted September 11, 2017 Report Share Posted September 11, 2017 Quite frankly, if we lose by fewer than three goals, I shall count it a relative success. United are surging forward whereas we're in a downward spiral. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rubecula Posted September 11, 2017 Report Share Posted September 11, 2017 lets be honest here, the manager is clueless. but he is our manager and we must give him every bit of support we can. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bailey Posted September 12, 2017 Report Share Posted September 12, 2017 United will have 15 plus shots on our goal. We will probably have around 5 or 6 on theirs. I know who I will be backing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aidan Posted September 12, 2017 Report Share Posted September 12, 2017 Pickford Holgate Jags Keane Baines Morgan Gana Sigurdsson Rooney DCL Mirallas No more of this stupid 5 at the back shite. Let's crack on with 4 and soak a bit of pressure with the two defensive midfielders. Sigurdsson needs to be played centrally, contribute defensively and work hard to get up the pitch. DCL is perfect for getting the ball up the pitch quick, everything seems to stick to him. Mirallas can play just off him and Rooney can have that free role getting forward or sitting deeper and pinging balls for the two forwards. I haven't got much hope for this game, although in my heart I know we can upset them if we want it hard enough. The last game in this horrible run, we can crack on after this and start our season properly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hafnia Posted September 14, 2017 Report Share Posted September 14, 2017 Dreading this game. Sadly I don't think koeman has realised that putting a shit load of Vaseline on the eyebrows and covering up from the first bell does any good. Like moyes before him he has a penknife to gunfight mentality except he's spent £150m on a pen knife. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hafnia Posted September 14, 2017 Report Share Posted September 14, 2017 he will probably score and some Everton fans will applaud him and say how lucky we were to have him - and that he deserved a medal for tolerating us for so long (whilst he was letting balls bounce off him in one of his 4.7km and 9 sprint games) Then again - surely our defenders know that giving him a bit of an early kick and getting stuck into him when a ball is passed to him will mean that he goes into his shell.

I've done a couple of quick darts up to the toilet (not for that) when we've scored just to relieve some energy (not that). Did it at Stoke last season after the controversial Lukaku goal - came back to 2 fat Stokies trying to rip each other's eyes out!

Sorry yeh it was an equaliser, really acute angle if I remember rightly. Haha whatever floats your boat pal!

Btay Posted September 16, 2017 Report Share Posted September 16, 2017 Pretty nervous about this one to be honest. Lukakus pace uptop against our backline is daunting. Is Besic and option next to Keane ( he slipped into LCB second half against Atalanta ), Im not sure he gives up much height against williams or Jags but his extra pace with holgate at RB to try and cover Keane. Midfield 3 of gana Morgan and Davies with Siggy DCL Sandro uptop.
