Everton v Chelsea: Live DaerhtEmag (Bizarro Edition)

PrintAfter countless hours (or minutes) of trying to figure out how to give an example of all the absurdity that surrounds Everton, I could come up with only one plausible example. Bizarro and his world, Htrea.
If you don't know about Bizarro, you can look him up here. The fact of the matter is, everything Everton does turns out to be the exact opposite of what any sane club would do. All our results should be different when you compare clubs in similar positions. We are just a bizarre club.
I will go through the specific similarities and overall weirdness between Everton and Bizarro in a feature later on this month, but for now I will try to use this theory to explain the Everton Chelsea match.
We will lose (or draw?). Well, you may say that this is a normal prediction right?
Ah contraire mon fraire. Everton usually overachieve against top tier teams. We also usually catch these teams by surprise. But what happened recently is that we are going on this weird unbeaten streak (I still refuse to believe this is happening due to all the outrage by the fans) so teams are actually not taking us for granted. This reverses the whole overachieve theory because our opponent thinks of us as a worthy adversary which in return makes us underachieve.
BIZARRO, right?
As always, comment below.

Bosingwa gets the start ahead of Gary Cahill.. strange. But not stranger than Neville starting over Hibbert.

although to be fair, very few good chances from open play for Chelsea.

Too bad
we can’t get up for the Wigans and Blackburns like we do for the Man Cities and Chelseas of the league…great showing so far!

ESPN commentators correct in noting that Chelsea have been hesitant to apply themselves physically, Everton’s work ethic should prevail

That's why I love David Moyes
He gets the most out of his players. If you don’t work hard, you get the ol’ heave-ho.

What a ball by Donovan, cool finish by Straq.

A shaky Chelsea defense gets even shakier.

Mata for Luk is nuts.
Guess AVB is conceding the game?

Mata hasn’t had space in the seconald half, and AVB thinks Everton is weak in the air.

Mm.
But who’s going to set him up with Mata off?

Malouda crossing from the left, and Bosingwa from the right…not saying its particularly likely to work, just that it is a coherent plan.

Could've replaced Torres for all he accomplishes as a number 9.

How is this the same team that lost to Bolton and got a draw against Wigan?
I wish they brought their ’A ’game week in week out. If they only played the top 7-8 every week.
I mean 3 points from Blackburn, Villa and Wigan – but all 6 against Citeh and Cleasea? Well done

Excellent win
Moyes only task for the rest of the season should be to convince the players that every team they play is a top 4 club
