Everton vs Roma - Saturday 10th Aug - 5pm KO

HT.

Roma goal aside, think we kept them at bay for most of that half. It's clear that they're a better side than us like..

 

[Ring master]

The lead was deserved, Roma looked more likely and could have had 2early on. We've done not much if anything

 

[efcste97]

If he persists with Doucoure behind the striker he can fk off

 

[dublinbluenose]

Young Tim, a real positive from that half.

 

[Aries]

Tim is by far our best player

The ONLY thing to get mildly excited about. We could do with getting another look at Roman Dixon and Harrison Armstrong. We need a spark, something the fans can get some excitement from, a couple of promising youngsters who look talented, full of energy and exuberance would do exactly that. Coleman goes off and it’s the PERFECT opportunity to see the lad Dixon slot in at right back in a preseason friendly. What does the manager do? Chucks on 40 year old Young. It’s all so so predictable and dull with him. Don’t get me wrong Dyche has leadership qualities and we need that right now unfortunately, but as soon as the club sorts itself out and gets on an upward trajectory then they have to get someone far more inspiring in the managers seat.

 

[Blueclouds]

Same old at usual. It's a season trying to stay up as we should all expect. We really do need new full backs as we play on the sidelines mostly anyway. Harrison is a bench player at best. I'm considering not watching this season

 

[II McColl II]

Can't believe he said "It's been easy on the eyes at times" what game is he watching.

Crap the lot of them going forward, Tarkowski just did more running down the wing than McNeil and Harrison all pre season. Useless the pair of them, one can't get the ball out his feet and the others developed a run sideways all game and do nothing with the ball trait.

We've signed better creative players for a reason, play them.

 

[Mr Happy]

Dacoure controls the ball like it’s made from cement

Makes no sense. If it were made of something lighter than air then I'd understand, but cement would stick !

 

[Del-boy]

We’re crap. Dyche out.

 

[maccavennie]

Best moment of the half, half time.

Mcneil just walking around as usual, Harrison taking too long on the ball as usual, Doucoure not being able to lay off simple pases as usual and Doms best work miles away from the goal as usual.

He's been given 2 new creative players, use them ffs.

Apart from Tim and Gueye, that was absolutely crap.

 

[Blue Smoke]

Well what a surprise. Pretty much last seasons team that are totally incpable of creating anything from open play.

Put n'diaye on for doucs. Put harrison on left wing and lindstrom on right

 

[Daytripper]

Makes no sense. If it were made of something lighter than air then I'd understand, but cement would stick !

I know, I was being sarcastic

 

[larbert toffee]

Their goal showed great vision plus a good take and slot.
We've no flair or finesse whatsoever.

 

[matty1878]

We’re crap. Dyche out.

who’s missed this saying often repeated on here?

 

[14_dollars]

To be fair we should be losing to teams like this - they are superior in every conceivable way.

Unfortunately, the decision not to buy fullback cover during this transfer window will haunt us this season.
