Match Thread Chelsea vs Everton - Saturday 26th April 12:30

[kenada_blue]

Second week in a row where way way too much respect was shown to a distinctly average team

Thoughts our forwards were awful.

Moyes trademark though isn't it?

 

[Rita_Poon]

What am I missing here?!

Stay free, stay lucky, what you don't entertain can't bore the socks off you...

 

[banno]

1 win in 9.... 5 draws and 3 defeats. 8 points from 9 games, if this was Dyche he would be getting pelters, and rightly so.

Unfortunately we are limping over the line, only game worth turning up for is Southampton but realistically all our lads have downed tools with nothing to play for.

No win in the last 30 games at Stamford Bridge... Everton are MASSIVE

Haven't we just played the top 5/6 teams. Not an easy game for any of them. 1 point above relegation when Moyes came and people still moaning we can't beat all of the top teams

 

[Eggs]

Doucoure is a massive part of why we have the third best defence in the country. But unfortunately is part of the reason we have the fourth worst attack

….spot on, awful again in the top third.

 

[ForeverEverton]

Also disappointing that having got to the lofty heights of 13th we will probably end up finishing 16th or 17th.... Wolves have won 5 straight.

 

[Rita_Poon]

Unsurprising scoreline . Just another damp squid . Yes I know it's squib .

Where's the calamari money bill?

 

[BlueShark]

Chelsea are poor but we manged to be worse. We gave it a go later on though.

That penalty shout would have been given for certain other teams too.

 

[RinkyDinker]

Doucoure is a massive part of why we have the third best defence in the country. But unfortunately is part of the reason we have the fourth worst attack

That cross straight out of play when we had fillled the box with players near the end, was truly truly grim.

 

[roy vernon]

Agree but a special mention to Alcaraz who changed the game or at least dragged us back into it today.

Agree with that, it's just a pity he replaced Ndiaye rather than Doucoure, I really don't know why Moyes doesn't play them together, they are both thinking far more quickly than the others up top.

 

[Yankfootball1]

Ive always wanted him to sign. Would have signed him in Jan if we had the funds.

Problem is hes not "nailed on" to sign.

Moyes prefers Doucoure.

Moyes uses him as a Ndiaye sub.

We saw quality vs Palace and again today when hes been allowed central.

If Moyes cant see this then he needs sacking.

Zat we are completely in alignment. If we don’t keep him at that price and age I am done with Moyes

 

[Zatara]

Alcaraz motm for me as he turned the game.

2nd & 3rd Branthwaite & O'Brien

 

[blue to the bone]

Even if we win the next 2 at Goodison, 6 wins out of 19 is absolutely criminal... Dyche currently has 2, Moyes 2...

What?

 

[paultheblue]

First off, boot Charlie Adams off to Widnes or somewhere.
Think Doucoure blew his chance of a contract, no contribution at all
Keep Alcaraz, easy decision.
Change the thinking. So much better as a forward thinking team.
Kopites are massive bellends

You can just see Charlie Adams in training punting balls in from the wings
" AV IT "

 

[ForeverEverton]

Haven't we just played the top 5/6 teams. Not an easy game for any of them. 1 point above relegation when Moyes came and people still moaning we can't beat all of the top teams

We`ll only win 1 or 2 of the last 4 in which we have Southampton, Ipswich, Fulham and Newcastle.

and IF Moyes gives Doucoure a new contract he can GTF

 

[Eggs]

Don't think either of them are good enough if I'm honest, have tried to say give Patterson a chance, but for me he's leaden footed at times, which allows his winger to beat him on the outside too often for my liking.

…he’s just headless, always has been. Just so easy to run in behind.
