Match Thread Everton 2-0 Peterborough Utd

Sorry how long was it since we scored from open play?

Ashley Youngs lad looks older than him.

He’s a chubby little get isn’t he

 

[Marius57]

You definitely have, he didn’t pass to a blue shirt until about 30 mins.

He has made 53 passes and 47 of them have been successful.

decent first half, I know it’s a league one side, but you can see what we are trying to do, there are clear patterns of play and we have limited them to maybe one chance and they had a half chance from the corner.

We have the lead now, let’s build on it in the 2nd half

 

[AndyP94]

We really desperately need a central midfielder who can pass a ball forward into the spaces the attacking players run into... crazy concept I know.

It’s like they get into the final third and start going sideways most of the time

 

[Librarian]

And we’ll really shake them up

I know it is against Peterborough but everything seems freer and, dare I say it, it is like we are playing football.

It was a bit better. I'd hardly say we were tearing through them, and frankly we could've gone behind, but the sheer act of players attempting to pass the ball on the ground to each other a bit more, is progress. That's how far we've fallen, that's how low the bar is.

Beto looks a lot better when he’s in a team trying to knock it through on the deck… who would have guessed (answer: everyone)

Size of his Noggin. Mum definitely got tore.

Far from perfect

We need to move the ball quicker and greater movement .

However at least we are trying to play football and this is miles better than anything I've seen from Everton so far .

 

[Marius57]

Would be funny if neither young snr or jnr got on the pitch

I think jnr has made 1 appearance all season or something. Only on the bench cause you are allowed 9 subs now.

 

[MercuryBlue88]

Not brilliant, but tbh can't expect a lot given its been literal hours without Dyche. Finding Keown extremely irritating on commentary however, so clueless about his ex-club, seemed desperate for Peterborough to snatch one.

 

[MaximusEvertonius]

I can’t stomach her when she throws the necklace overboard. You had it on you all along! You threw it. Now you go get it. Did this to yourself ol’ girl.

 

[Victus]

Would let me die quite happily if Moyes somehow won the FA cup with us after that final.

Lovely
