Everton

Think Everton are one of the teams I would least want to play right now, tough game.

Agreed. Would rather be playing anyone else at the minute. Though we did play Newcastle and Forest at good times so I guess it evens itself up.

Gonna be a tough game and unnecessarily more tough because of Udogie and Bissouma’s stupidity.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Bissouma I know about, but.....
what has UDogie done now?

Suspended Ted. Silly yellow card at Forest.

It just shows how poor the bottom 3 are this season.
Everton deducted 10 points and not even bottom.
Now not even Christmas and 7 points clear of the bottom 3.

had it not been for the punishment of 10 points deduction, Everton would be only 1 point behind Ten Hag's Utd.
-----------------

That doesn't really make Everton sound as strong as you might think given the way United are playing.

On the other hand, the 10 points deduction was necessary because the PGMOL said they needed them on the other side of the city. (That one's for you, Billy)

Brilliant performance

Everton if anything were galvanised by the deduction - siege mentality.

We have a great record over Everton though, they are the team in Prem history we have taken the most points against - mostly because they have never been relegated from the Prem (not including when it wasn’t called the Prem). It’s been about 5 years since we failed to beat them at home - should be winning and then a tough trip to the Amex before Bournemouth at home.

7 points will see us still in the hunt for a CL spot with a load of players to come back

I think how Dych managed the situation and got a reaction out of his players is actually an indicator of how good he is in thi skind of situation. "Them & Us" situations. We need to be wary of teams that come to us feeling this way as this is a powerful emotion and we could underestimate them under the stats that we "always" fare better agains them. This is an exceptional case and we should treat it as such.

If we approach them with a professional attitude and be mindful of the runs of their players, like McNeil and Beto, we should look to come out on top.

Serioulsy though, it has become that much more difficult of an encounter because of their red hot form right now.
