Aston Villa v Everton Pre-Match Thread

[Toronto Villa]

Listen you miserable sods. We're winning this 3-1. Everton rarely win at our place and they're not starting this week in our first home game.

Bent, Holman and Clark and Baines penno for them.

[Witton Warrior]

They often outplay us but we win - we will need to ride our luck for a 1-0.
This will be a fingers crossed match...

This made me happy to read. We've lost 1 game under Lambert and already the 'we're going down' circlejerk has begun.

First home game and a very hard one against a class Everton side.
2-1 Villa

[The Man With A Stick]

Everton have run themselves into the ground tonight, we'll do them next weekend.

[Monty]

I still think we'll have a good season, but I think we'll struggle against them. Away win.

[CJ]

Although I was encouraged by our possession style on Saturday, the lack of drive and penetration worried me (early days I know). Think Everton will be buoyed by their unusually good start to the season, and I also think Fellaini and his amazing flailing limbs will dominate the midfield. I'd gladly take a point

Quieten down.

Think it'll be another loss.  Fellaini was brilliant tonight, and can't see that we've got the players to counter him.

We're above Man Utd and Liverpool in the league. What more do people want? You'll be wanting goals and points next!
