Missed too many chances.

That's the way it goes sometimes, gotta finish those chances. They will hopefully learn from this.

This has unfolded exactly the way I thought. At HT my ERO was telling me it was a nothing game played by no one. He might change his tune when he finds out they've won! Just another game where we think we will score with the next chance, or the next one or the last one, and it doesn't transpire!

1-0 Everton. Game over.

That’s not a good start to the weekend.

 

[Deepest Blue]

Smash and grab.

Not seen much of the youth team this year but obviously aware of how highly rated are the likes of Lavia, Mcatee, Delap.

Judging on today Callum Doyle looked head and shoulders above everyone. Great range of short and long passing, passes through the lines. Looks a very exciting prospect and in the Pep mould of ball playing centre half.

I am now getting fearful about McAtee who is such a talented player. Young players who are great prospects can dominate games at this level. I watched Sancho and Foden and there was a hunger and a great mentality in their play to go with their talent. McAtee is so casual and laid back but he has plenty of time and I really hope he can improve these aspects of his play.

Missed too many chances.

Yep,and their keeper was excellent.

It didn't feel right anyway playing Chelsea before the final.

I couldn't watch todays game but that's not how I would describe McAtee generally. Admittedly I have described Palmer with those words (exactly I think) but that's just the way Palmer seems to play.

McAtee has always seemed fully focused normally. Sounds like a bad day at the office all around today.
