Just a few hours from now, we will all be quite satisfied or horribly upset. On paper, Thursday’s Europa League matchup should be a cake walk for Everton, but crazier things have happened.

It’s not outlandish to think that the distractions of transfer rumours, a subpar 1-0 win in the first leg and some minor injury concerns have clouded the Toffees minds in their preparation. But let’s be positive! Football matters right now. These boys can do it!

I hope.
