Everton - Post match thread.

[goalmole]

Well I've been going for nearly 50.years & only seen us do.it in the lower leagues.
So you can be as miserable as you want but I thought it was fucking fantastic.

Play like that & defend properly we win the lot.

+1.
I thought i was the only one that felt that way. I'm well happy and hugely optimistic and encouraged after watching that performance. Enjoyed the second half with 10 men, more than the first with 11.

Pep got the starting team wrong.

Doesn't get us fired up and we play too fucking slow.

Well done Sterling.

Sane, Aguero, D Silva were very poor.

Couldn't agree more and I would lump De Bruyne in there too. Felt sick in the pit of my stomach by the end of the first half. Frustrated as F***

 

[aguerrrroooooooooooo]

Pep out. Hasn't got a clue.

You've got to be on the wum?

 

[Bozo]

Deja vu.

Like kneville said, I don't think he was the main problem tonight at all but I do think there's a pattern of teams trying to exploit that left half space when he plays. Especially when their attacker has pace.

He wasn't't a problem at all. In fact he was quite good. He can do away with the play acting though. Or else he may as well join Everton.

What has he said?

that it was one of the proudest moment of his life. Pretty much same he always says when ref fucks us and we don't lose or win. Plus his body language shows that he really doesn't want to be there and speak with journos, it's basically like he silently saying them - I hate you ****s.

Pep is fuming really about treatment we get, I think winning something with City would be the happiest moment of his life.

How many saves did Pickford make? Defend properly that's a big issue. Everton are not a genuinely good team. Play like that and we will win nowt and I'm not being miserable that's just the way it is. We didn't work the keeper. Koeman made a bizarre change to his formation and as you say that goal we conceded was awful. Great spirit and a good point given we had ten. But playing like that is not good enough I'm sorry mate.

Great football missed chances let in a bad goal.

Then ran rings round a top 6 side with 10 men.

Imo better than any performance last season. Tighten up at the back, we score & we score again.

Make it harder to score v us & we win the title.

Alternatively, we might not have.

For all the poor decisions by the referee and our manager, it shouldn't take us until we're a man down to wake up and play like we know we can.

We'd had 2 or 3 great chances before Walker was sent off. With 11 men it was only a matter of time before we scored..... in my opinion

 

[stan bowles]

Yet to be convinced by 3-5-2. Do we need 3 CBs ? Otamendi was the spare man when we had the ball and Everton were glad of it. Pep's persistence with playing Sane at LWB is really affecting his confidence. Surely anyone can see the lad struggles running back towards his own goal. Sterling easily MOTM and De Bruyne stank the place out tonight. Dreadful performance. Credit for the fightback but the warning signs that we're going to struggle to break teams down at home are already looming. The finishing remains wholly unconvincing.

You're gonna struggle to convince most on here, mate.
I agree with you.
