Was the last time we won there when Kevin Davies scored after dribbling from (i think) just inside our half. I think it was and that seems an ETERNITY ago.

Manuel Posted 8 July, 2020 Share Posted 8 July, 2020 Wonder if we're faring better because of our overall fitness. Would be great to have the same starting line-up if they can manage it. Don't think we've been using anywhere near the amount of subs we're allowed. Perhaps tomorrow it might be wise to put on some fresh legs during the second half...don't want to break anybody.

SNSUN Posted 8 July, 2020 Share Posted 8 July, 2020 We haven’t won 3 games in a row in the League since the tail end of the Koeman season 6th place finish. (Although we were close this season in December...) What a place to go to to try and break that streak. I’d love a win but a draw to keep Everton in passing distance wouldn’t be a bad result. I hope Adams goes on a scoring run now, but he needs to keep his place to do that, so would be interesting to see if Ralph keeps with in him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lighthouse Posted 9 July, 2020 Share Posted 9 July, 2020 It'd have to be Everton for me, for two reasons. Firstly, we never win at Goodison and it'd be good to get that monkey off our back. Secondly, they're a point above us in the table and this is a mid table obscurity six-pointer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I grew hating Manchester United, moreso than any club apart from Portsmouth, but in recent years I've softened to them a bit. I think seeing City (& Chelsea) buy success and obviously having Liverpool up there too makes me think I'd find a Man Utd team at the top a lot more comforting than I ever thought possible.

Think other clubs have only done it, because their shirt sponsors or kit manufacturers have a deal until June 30th, so have to have a new one, thats why Bournemouth are using new kits anyway.

The games are coming around so quickly it's going to be a challenge. Everton, who along with spurs are among the most detestable clubs going (cranked up by the Adrian Heath moment in 1984, and then the Koeman episode (and all the 'dug out' bollocks that came out of it). Utd aren't far behind (and of course the other scousers), but beating them would be nicer when we have supporters present to witness it and see the disappointment of the daytrippers at Old Trafford .

supersonic Posted 9 July, 2020 Share Posted 9 July, 2020 Would keep the same team as per City if I were in charge. Macca, Bertrand, Bednarek, Stephens and KWP seem to be our best and most solid back 5 (only taken 33 games to figure this out, but better late than never!) Personally, I wouldn't play PEH again, I'd give the minutes to Smallbone and Jankewitz who could flourish. Giving them playing time when there's no real pressure can only benefit them. Heart says we keep Che up top with Ings, but head says we need a Long/Obafemi running type to partner him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
