Is it wrong to feel disappointed?

1-1 fair. They battered us first half. We were the much better team second half and could have had 3 ourselves.

Didn't mind the formation change. Branthwaite and KDH come back in seamlessly but your playing with 10 men in that formation due to how bad Mykolenko is on the ball. We have all been saying it but we are crying out for a pair of wingbacks. If we are serious about finishing as high up as we can this year instead of just playing it safe we would be looking at what we can do with what's left of this month to solve it.

They beat Fulham, drew with Liverpool, Brentford, Man Utd, Sunderland. They are a tough team.

Intense cope.

Two Barrys on MoTM poll?

I know. Which do I vote for

 

[edge]

If I were a Leeds fan I would be going mad the way they dropped back while 1-0 up
Should have just carried on doing what they were.
Better from us second half.

No, it's natural.

The additional games of a European campaign would wreck this squad.

We can't continue to play such slow , crap football at home.

Don't think Moyes knows how to change things up.

You mean like he changed things up at half time ?

It doesn't look like they have any plan when teams put men behind the ball at home and look to hit us on the counter. Everyone stands still, there is no movement off the ball. Do they practice movement and runs off the ball in training when the opposition gifts us possession? I must say it has long been an issue in Moyes sides, which suggests to me it is not a point of focus.

The result is slow ball movement, as there are no clear options to pass to, or decoy runs from players. Thus leaving it to one player (in this case the sacrificial lamb Dibling) to take on 2/3 opposition players and try to generate something when there is no pace on the ball, and no options for them to pass to.

All you haters of Everton, doubters of Barry. Get stuffed. We're a mid table side. But we're on the up

 

[bullybeef]

Terrible home form.

Need a new winger… Dibling is way off it at the moment.

 

[Tipp blue]

Nobody has mentioned the leeds player being injured then getting up when they get the ball back, should be booked for such insolence, imagine he scored.

 

[Saint Domingo]

Wolves, Leeds, Brentford, Spurs, Newcastle, West Ham, Arsenal, Villa - all at home - 4 points

Embrace your inner Walter.

They got tired. You can’t play that way for 90 minutes.

 

[maccavennie]

Thought he should have brought on Aznou..

100% as soon as the formation was changed.

He's bad enough as a left back, as a wing back hes embarrassing
