Match Thread Stoke City v Everton 1/2/17 KO 8pm GMT

[Efcjake]

Sure, because Oviedo and Gibson were first team regulars.

Doesn't change the fact that we've got little options to change the team.

 

[nsno-chris]

Awful performance though

 

[Seanjd]

Poor performance. Credit to Stoke, they're playing well. Should be down by a few goals. Schneiderlin looks really good though, and Barkley is demanding the ball and doing well.

 

[Ring master]

Incredible decision on our goal,and the right decision at that-credit to the linesman or the ref for getting that right,side camera makes it look like Lukaku has put it in,the behind the goal camera quite clearly shows its an og off shawcross from coleman cross with coleman been given the goal,that goal was underserved,as we could have conceeded 3,the crouch goal was always going to happen,the volley he missed should have been 2 and the sliding save on his knees from joel which he does a lot stoped arnautovic,need big improvement that 2nd

 

[orly]

Peak Funes Mori here tonight. He's been hopeless

 

[CahillsCornerFlag]

Top save Joel, whoever headed that back at the defence with 10 seconds to go is an absolute moron.

We look poor at the back today, if we were more solid I'd be confident of giving these a battering.

 

[ijjysmith]

Schneiderlin absolutely majestic.

Lukaku stinking.

Davies not as good as previous 2 but you know a moment of boss is around the corner.

COYB

 

[kenada_blue]

Needs to up the tempo. Pin them back. We're just a bit tepid.

 

[DownOnTheUpside]

Save Robles

Jesus

when he's given a run (as my post history will attest) he's the foundation of a solid goalie

 

[Bullet]

Lucky to be level. Brilliant Robles. Starting to look a top keeper. Need to up the ante in the second half or we'll get nothing.

 

[gonetomorrow]

Save - they should have scored. Come on Blues!

 

[mightymoyes]

that was as bad as it gets, holgate playing like hes never been on a pitch before.

 

[BigBlueConk]

Our sloppiness is sloppy.

 

[hullefc]

Well played Robles, he's kept us in it. Schneiderlin have a decent game.

 

[Saaby]

Hopefully Funes Mori is the next player we ship out.

 

[Kantareller]

Midfield looks okay, Davies, Schneidz and Barkley all looking pretty sharp. But attack is non-existent, really sloppy passes in the final third. Defensively shaky as well, thank god we have Robles who is quick off his line.
