Match Thread Everton v Leicester City - Preview, Match Report & MotM Poll

[ford_uk]

Hard to judge the rest of the team accurately when Gana and Onana are so far off the pace that their midfield can just stroll around doing whatever they want. Can't keep possession at all with two midfielders playing so poorly. Wouldn't mind seeing Garner and maybe even Davies on at halftime.

I'd bring them both off at half time - been awful

 

[Neiler]

Coady was very sloppy for the goal, should have put his boot through a clearance.

 

[lungo]

Funny that you can watch that utter dross and still think that we are on the right track under Lampard

Yeah the Benitez hate is to big for some people. Lampard compared to him is the some package with less fat.

 

[steven]

Comfortably second best. Maddison and tielmans head and shoulders over is. Our midfield three have been dire.

 

[ricer10]

Lucky to only be 1 down at HT based on our play ..... take a draw tbh

 

[GoldenToffee]

Frank will leave it as it is and allow them to waste another 15/20 minutes before hauling a couple of them off, possibly at 2-0 when it's already far too late. They've been a disgrace, changes must be made now, but won't be.

 

[bilyaletdinov_]

Patterson and Garner on
Coleman and Gueye off

would be my changes

 

[suey_11]

Our wingers and full backs offer no attacking threat.
Bar Iwobi and the odd run by Onana that's about it.

 

[DanB90]

Everyone losing there heads... We are 1-0 down to an absolutely world class goal. We could easily be 1-0 up here.

We could.
But we wouldn’t deserve to be. Leicester good value for their 1-0 lead so far imo.

Hoping for a better second half.

 

[davek]

Erm?

Pickford usually gets a hand to those. The quality was superb though. You cant legislate for that.

 

[macst]

Nobody has even been a 5/10. Just so far off the pace it’s untrue.

 

[glory_daze]

We ain't scoring Two thats for sure.

Did you really think we would win and go above the RS for a day? never happens

 

[blueconverse]

15 shots. Absolutely embarrassing. You are the home team you gimps

 

[Joey66]

….thought we might just get to half-time but not surprising Leicester finally got that goal.

Very slow in possession, looking to play through central midfielders who haven’t got the quality to play that way. We know what Gueye is good at and we know what he’s not good at, yet we seem to want to play through him.

We’re a threat when we get the ball forward, I’d like us to take the option of hitting Dominic Calvert-Lewin and wide areas from the back rather than laboriously play it around no-mans land where Leicester are better than us.

Games not over unless Leicester score again.

The midfield is inept how many times have we passed the ball backwards ?
The team has not gelled , Lampard has to make changes to balance the team apart from Iwobis miss created very little......woeful performance so far ....

 

[Paul Rideout]

We could easily be 3-0 down

prime vardy up top and we would be
