View from the opposition – Everton
A bit about you:
Name: Mark Sadler
Current home town: Barrow upon Soar
Birthplace: Sutton-in-Ashfield
How long have you supported your team? 47 years
Overview of your club:
Favourite thing about your home ground: Soul and memories
Favourite match played by your team & why: Beating Man U on penalties in the FA cup semi-final 2009 because it was the first time at Wembley with my son and the nearest we have been to winning anything in his lifetime (or at least living memory as he was only 2 in 1995) and it was beating Man U, which always feels good.
Favourite player of all time who played for your club: Alan Ball (you never forget your childhood heroes), with big Dunc a close second.
About our forthcoming match against you:
Your favourite current player in your squad and why? Mo Besic. Despite having an unfortunate first touch in English football (against Chelsea, youtube it if you can’t remember it) he is overflowing with confidence and commitment.
Player in your squad we should most fear and why? Romelu Lukaku because he will score.
Player in our squad you most fear and why? Mark Schwartzer because he has probably got one last ‘blinder’ in him.
Up and coming prospect in your squad? Luke Garbutt – will be even better that Baines.
Where do you think you’ll finish this season? 10th, but will win the Europa League and so qualify for the Champions League, making the fourth place they are all chasing irrelevant (or have I fallen asleep and am now dreaming?)
How do you think you’ll do against us? Win 2-1, not letting in a stupid last minute equalizer!
