Match Thread Everton 0-2 Bournemouth FA Cup 8th Feb 2025

[mistuhp]

Had plenty of warning signs with Tarkowski sadly

Wondering how many times we'll see the "I can't believe you're questioning Tarky! He's the least of our problems" over the next few days.

Wake up call this first half. Lots of poor performances all over the pitch. Over to you Davey.

 

[everton1953]

Gosh, some about turns on here. Good job it isn’t on the box.

 

[Delargeinho]

They’ve not even been very good, Tarkowski has decided to make them look good.

Jep, but it's like in recent weeks, they have been ice cold usually

 

[Bryan+]

Begović & Virginia on for the second half.

 

[GoldenToffee]

It's a shame to wave goodbye to the FA Cup at Goodison Park in such shambolic circumstances.

 

[Verbal Kint]

Perfect opportunity for Moyes to lay down a marker here at half time. Tarks not happening for you today, off you come son.

 

[Frenk]

Moyes will give them a rollicking for this. It’s like they were out on the town last night.

 

[Mr PEN86]

Tarks having a nightmare today….. gifted them 2 goals

He's been awful

 

[Shibbywiggles]

Incredibly disappointing performance. As bad a half as the last two home first halves were good.

Get the new lads on for Doucoure and let’s have a go trying to play some football.

 

[Eggs]

Get Keane on up front to do some pushing and shoving.

….thats what Beto does but they are very comfortable against that type.

 

[Blue Smoke]

When your defence are having a mare then it runs through the whole team.

 

[allen]

Not really sure what we do to change this… Alcaraz the obvious name, but no idea if he’d change things in a meaningful way.

Need one of those Moyes half times of old. He’s capable of changing the game at the break, even if I can’t see how he might do it.

 

[II McColl II]

Tarkowksi with just about the worst half of football you'll likely see, outside of putting the ball in his own net he ticked every other box.

We started brightly but been way too timid and gone back to Dyche off the ball not pressing high, they've been the complete opposite and benefited from it by turning one of ours in to a clown every time he gets near the ball.

 

[Khalekan]

Talk about coming back down to earth with a bump.

The fact we are lucky it is only a two goal deficit gives us a straw to cling to at least.
