At the start of every season there are some teams you'd happily accept getting 4 points from. The Ev are on that list and away at Goodison is always one of our toughest aways.

Yeah it is very confusing. But that is why Arne said it doesn't matter if we finish 1st or 2nd because the end result is the same.
Not to make your job harder mate but I think your missing 2 teams out of consideration...
Incredible stats for team with 8 first team injuries. The way they've kept their performance levels up in the last few weeks deserves a lot of credit and respect.
Quite a few lads who need minutes out there and others who just need 60/70 to keep ticking over. Genuinely stunned that a 16 year old has effectively started over Chiesa tho!
More likely that he plays Saturday. Most will probably be given the day off then which is still a week off. A week and a half between games likely to cause more problems than good. Plus it's a semi final, pick your best available team.
Course they are he wins a trophy in all his third seasons ... mate.
Wataru Endo what a fella.
Their owner probably could've done without writing in the paper that he had his support in the week!
All the while Fulham were time wasting at 1-1 against 10 men
After a tough few weeks there is something cosy about Fulham at Anfield, 3pm on a Saturday. They'll give us a good game, but expecting a business like performance.
Safety obviously comes first but in the purely footballing sense it gives us a rest and let's us have some key players back for the rearranged fixture. However, I do think the chasing sides are gonna be given a massive boost and we would do well to avoid an evening fixture at Goodison.
We've been stung so many times before so I can understand it. But this season definitely has the potential to be different.
We've not done better or worse at this stage, whereas City and Arsenal have done worse. Next few games will really paint the picture on 'favourites.'
Looks a bit like a 5p coin. Not a fan 😬
Aït nouri for me but Kerkez is not a bad alternative if we go off Premier league left backs.
Some might argue that we can have both but I reckon it we sign another midfielder his pathway into the first team becomes almost impossible.
Never forget the Konoplyanka saga!
She also has a degree in Professional Sports Writing and Broadcasting, so is actually more qualified than most of the ex pros!
In addition to all this: going on the way the current owners/model view things, they will likely think they can get better value across a 5 year contract in at least one of the three areas. Doesn't make it any easier for us to deal with as fans though!
Trust Steve Nicol to find the negatives
Their fans will eat that up. Can't wait for the pre match presser against us when he says he turned us down because he was waiting for United 🥱
Thought he was way below the level required. Hopefully won't see him on too many high profile games any time soon.
Arsenal defended narrowly and blocked anything in there. Not much more they could've done!
I imagine Curtis is getting pelters over there atm!
He plays for Wolves. Personally I love him. Would be more of a dynamic player tho, rather than one who plays the half centre back half left back role that everybody wants us to sign instead.
Aït-Nouri will have 1 year left on his contract in the summer 👀. He's my dream replacement!
Arsenal stopped us building through the middle so it was difficult to get anything going, but yeah when Gabriel went off it felt like they were there for the taking. We could've taken more risks and come away with nothing, so we'll have to take the point!
Old Trafford and the Emirates out the way early in the season and 4 points from the 2 is good going. #LFC
Sky like to try and build the "title race" up for obvious commercial reasons but sadly it is safe to assume City will win the league every year.
