Everton vs Arsenal

[brap2]

Be interesting to see if we open up a bit here or carry on the 25% possession thing

Yeah listened to a pod before and there was some discussion over whether we should try and open up a little bit or repeat..

For me I think repeat. They haven't been good creatively and have struggled against deeper sides - feels perfect for our set up!

Sure I would love us to play them off the park but we have a much better chance being physical and competitive and trying to catch them on the break.

Also, any excuse.

The good thing is that i suppose most of us will be watching it on catch up later after the Strictly final so we can give it a miss if it's bad?

I didn’t even watch it when my cousin, Dani Harmer, was on it

I think they key for us is nulifying them in the wide areas through Saka and possibly Willian, although he doesn't appear the same player as he was for Chelsea.

Doucoure & Davies/Gomes to win the midfield battle against Ceballos and Elneny.

Arteta is still the best player I’ve seen play for us.

Obviously it’ll be James over time but Arteta ran the show for years at us.

What a moment, loudest I've ever felt Goodison. Gwladys was rocking, pity about the pens.

Just bully them off the pitch, hopefully. It's the easiest way to beat Arsenal no matter who is in charge of them.

You cant beat a bit of bully

What is a Strictly final? Something to do with Madam Cyn or am I missing some modem cultural phenomenon?

They’ve been weirdly obsessed with crossing this season, which will surely play right into our hands if we go for four centre backs again

Don't have many fond memories of Koeman's time but the 2-1 over Arsenal was class.

Our approach will be the same as the last two games and on paper we win without too much fuss. I’m interested (as another poster alluded to) to see how Iwobi performs. Possible motm performance incoming. It all depends on Arsenal really. If they put in the graft they showed in the community shield against them then we lose, however, I think they’ve reverted to type now and don’t have the mental strength away from home. I’m quietly confident but as always I’ll be flapping it until we’re 3 up

It’s a silly dancing competition that puts professional dancers and b rated celebs together on prime time tv. It’s been going for years and is very popular for some reason.

Love a late goal like Williams'. That was his first goal for us wasn't it (not that he scored many)?

Clashing with the all Ireland football final here I will have eyes on both hopefully a convincing Everton win and maybe a first Mayo win in 60 years
