We've got to press Villa back into their own box from the getgo. And not give up until we're FIVE up.
But Yaya will be that much fitter; as will Silva
Not too sure about the fitness thing, half the team seem to be walking wounded.
But I do agree that unless scouse 1 drop points against Palace, which I suspect they may do, we need to knock a fair few in against Villa, as the dippers will be going for a record score against Newcastle. Need to nip that idea in the bud
My brother's a Dipper, and I told him he shouldn't take the Bar Codes for granted, no matter what happens.
It's more about the head than the calibre of player, in these final two games.
I was delighted the way Javi Garcia held off that late lunging tackle when Barkley - I think - had burst past him and Javi wasn't able to get back and win the ball.
It's those kind of things - where players
do lose the head - that can kill us.
De Michelis very much a calming influence in that respect; his having a go at the referee for Everton's second was atypical of him, although it was good to see how quickly he regained his composure
