Everton vs Aston Villa pre-match thread

[Villa Lew]

I would start with big Jhon, not having played for nearly 3 weeks, he will be raring to go.

It is absolutely essential we are proactive in this game. If we get on top and score a couple quickly they’ll buckle. If we start slow and gift them an early goal it’ll be very difficult.

It's almost like you haven't watched us play.

I dont think he will, just in case he is too hyped - might try to reintroduce him a bit more slowly

[DB]

Just keep a clean sheet and don’t concede with 5mins.

Not the Square Peg then.

Watkins and Ramsey start, Bailey and Duran on the bench.

Not the Square Peg then.

It's the one at the station isn't it?
