Match Thread Liverpool v Everton - Preview, Match Report & MotM Poll

[dannyboy]

Standard tosh at a scum 6 ground.


Proud of them there today.


Up the Toffees

I appreciste the sentiment but I struggle to be proud after yet another derby defeat. We battled well but that should be the minimum expectation in this fixture. Unfortunately we are a million miles away from making this a competitive fixture once again.

We were always going to get riddled by the officials today.

Not sure whether Young deserved to get booked twice, stupid though it was, but if he did then Konate should too. Poor from Poor son.

Bringing Keane on was always going to end in disaster, soon as I saw that change at half time I feared for the worse. Poor decision from Dyche imho, would have kept four at the back. Also with hindsight would have started Beto and subbed Dom on rather than the other way around, think today required the hammer first and the sword second, but ultimately small margins. Otherwise not too many criticisms, perhaps a sad reflection of where I think we are atm.

Watched the game with my missus (a red) who doesn't really watch footy, but at one point she said about Branthwaite "is he the only player on the pitch for Everton?", another great performance from him. But for me Myks MOM, was excellent and has Salahs number. Surprised/not surprised Salah got MOM, Myks kept him quiet in open play.

 

[Sharpies volley]

Branthwaite or Miko for me. Terrible decision to take Miko off. Pawson was an absolute disgrace.

 

[Sheedy's right knee.]

I thought Branthwaite edges out Mykolenko. I also thought Onana and Garner worked their tripe off in the middle without the deserved rewards. Dyche needs to use this game as a siege mentality with the players. I was actually impressed with the way the team carries on committing themselves after the penalty.

'kin Kopite rats.

 

[Tel001]

Pickford seemed pissed with the ref too. Said decisions didn’t go our way “ but that’s no surprise “

Didn’t comment much more but said he would like better dialog and less arrogance

 

[RomanReigns]

Even Jurgen said Konate should have been sent off

Hahahaha

 

[tommytowne]

Not a 0-2 performance by the Blues today, just done over by poor decisions. With the benefit of hindsight Young should have been substituted by Patterson as soon as he got the first yellow card, a second yellow was only a matter of time. I can't be the only one whose heart dropped seeing Michael Keane coming on after half-time. He isn't the worst player on the planet but big games always bring out his bad side.

I went for Branthwaite for MoM, although Onana, Miko and Tarjowski were contenders. I expected lousy officiating as soon as I saw Pawson was the man in the middle, he really is atrocious at his job.

The guy who posted this morning that Young playing would come back to haunt us was spot on though.

 

[maccavennie]

In work and not going to listen or try and watch it.

CBA with the inevitable a) crap team performance b) criminal decisions in favour of the rs

I hope we do it I genuinely do but absolutely sick of turning up against this lot and just rolling over and handing them 3 points without them needing to get out of first gear.

Prove me wrong Everton

Just once, prove me wrong.

Shock shock horror everything went in their favour I see.

Glad I gave it a miss and just popped on here for little snippets.

Same old ****, different day.

 

[perth_blue]

Never would have won today regardless of that utter clown ref.

Based on that showing today, they can celebrate being top of the league for now. No chance they will be there season's end.

Unfortunately we are a million miles away from making this a competitive fixture once again.

It wasn't competitive today?

They needed a pen to break through against a 10 man team, and they needed the ref's help to keep from going down to 10 themselves.

Also, your avatar reminds me of my own. Let me know if you've got any openings for a doppelganger.

 

[Clarky cat]

Tbh mate, just pipe down with the endless ranting and raving. That was sickening enough without coming on here and seeing this, if we'd have got a result you would be SILENT.

spreadsheet loving, tantrum toddler him. He eats, sleeps and walks around in soiled underpants every single day

 

[ste d' indica]

Our pass completion is 53%.

On the basis you’d get around 50% booting it anywhere blindfolded, that’s not very good.

Maybe we should give it whirl?

 

[Bedfordblue]

‘Taste derby defeat’?
How about ‘have it shoved down their throat’ due to the absolute bellwhiffery of the most experienced player on the pitch.

 

[Cjplennon]

You can say Young deserved it but then so did Konate. It was 0-0 at the time, different game at 10 v 10

Yea, as soon as they gave a free kick it had to be a second Yellow. Professional foul to break up play - clear. Replay at neutral ground please!
