Everton - Post match thread.

Can't believe no has mentioned that pep subbed the wrong striker in Jesus.
Was not clinical but was very pacy and made those defenders work unlike aguero.
Really I thought Jesus spent his time on the field falling over looking for fouls that were never coming his ball retention and passing were poor, Aguero while not at his best did manage to draw defenders and create in the 2nd half on his own.
 
Same old, same old.
Two points pissed away by woeful finishing or trying to walk the ball into the net.
You'd have thought Pep would have got it about Sane - but just in case you missed it Pep - Sane is not a left back - he's a winger cum forward.
While we're at it the the ref was woeful -- he swallowed the defender's collapse hook line and sinker to send Walker off and invented the rules on a couple of occasions whilst letting Everton get away with some bad fouls. His watch was clearly broken as there should habe been 10+ mins if extra time rather than the 4 we got.
On the plus side Bernardo looked class and KDB can play DM and we dominated a team of 11 men with a team of 10.

One were Aguero failed to take his shot
One where silva hit the post
One where Danilo flashed the ball across the goal, palmed away by Keeper
One where Sterling blazed it over when it was easier to score

Score 1-2 of those and it's a different game
I would have to see those chances again to see how easy they were. I didn't feel how did we miss that many times tbh. It was more a case of thinking we would not get many opportunities with 10 men do we had to make most of them.

I think we should look at our first half performance where we did not do enough
 
I agree. Took his goal well, other than that he hardly put a foot right, incredibly frustrating player
I find this strange. These comments that is. Have people been swayed subliminally by the anti Sterling press that he's now our scapegoat? Hardly put a foot right? The reason we created so many openings in the second despite being down to ten men was almost entirely due to him and his incisiveness and positivity.

Yep, perfectly good chances there. People easily forget. Sterlings chance looked far easier than the goal he actually scored. The second half suited us better because they weren't sure how to react to being a goal up against ten men.

What I enjoyed about him tonight was the fact that he drove at players and took them on. Often his final decisive ball can be lacking, but his directness certainly made them feel uneasy. That made a big difference for me.

Oh they did. I think Everton must practice time wasting in training. Every time they look like getting something out of a game they start it.
