Match Thread Everton v Aston Villa - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[Toffe3m4n]

A goal could turn the tide here

I admire your positivity mate but feck me...

 

[PhilRegan]

Worked hard to win the header so think it's harsh on him that.

He didn't it fell to him from.a shot

 

[SJB]

There was nobody available who would improve the squad though...

 

[Wat Tyler]

Dog of a team

 

[Bkk Andy]

We are exhausting to support. But if anyone genuinely expected us to stay up because we hired Dyche needs to check themselves. It would always be a miracle job.

I was amazed how many seemed to think we'd walk it against Villa and then be safe. We're nowhere near safe.

 

[LucBesson]

Don't even know why I'm still watching this to be honest. We could play for days and still not score.

 

[Shibbywiggles]

I still expect us to stay up

I don’t know who’s scoring the goals though
We outplayed and outfought these for 60 odd mins, 10 shots to 3 but no goals

 

[coollino]

We’ve said it a thousand times, we have a competent striker and we win the game, they had the whole of January ffs.

And the summer before, and possibly the Jan

 

[dan7787]

How?
Pretty standard to stick with a winning side and setup, particularly with thick players.

Get your head out of Sean’s assss

 

[DavidH]

If you take the emotions out of it....

This has never been a two nil.

But majority won't, unlucky not to go ahead, totally different game.

Rash decision by Gana. Caught on the break.

Agreed. On top for 60 minutes easily. Could and should have got at least one. Pen changes the game.

1st half was brilliant. I just can't put it in the "these things happen" slot because we have no reaction.

 

[bluelife]

Maupay - atrocious. Coady - atrocious. Other than that we should win today - but they have players who can take their chances and we don't.

 

[Youknowme]

Don’t blame dyche, but maupay can’t start he’s awful, can’t score. Stupid challenge from gana cost us. Think it was very weak pen however. Conclusion is villa are terrible and their form is bad . Should be beating them.

 

[COYBL25]

Signing Ings will save them. Funny that seeing as we had the option and he was available. Classic Everton. Sick to death of it. We are a terribly run football club and we reap what we sew.

How do you force a player, who doesn`t want to sign for you, to sign ?

 

[CahillsCornerFlag]

I still expect us to stay up

We can’t score goals, and for that reason I believe we’ll go down. 6 goals in 11 games is relegation form.

We are exhausting to support. But if anyone genuinely expected us to stay up because we hired Dyche needs to check themselves. It would always be a miracle job.

Dyche could very well have kept us up if he was was hired pre-WC or even pre-Jan. We’ve been doomed since taking too long to bin Frank. At least we’re going down swinging by comparison; some decent chances being created in the last few games.
