Match Thread Everton v Watford - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[Saaby]

Very sloppy, need a win here to get our mins of the past two games.

Bernard’s work rate is brilliant. Suprised me how much he has settled into the English game. Some fantastic touches from him.

Theo’s end product or the odd bad touch is so frustrating.

Played well in spells but pretty even game.

Frustrating is definitely the right word to describe Walcott. Wouldn’t rule him out pulling something out the bag though

 

[blue to the bone]

Readin the thread shows so much how people differ.
The varying views on Walcott and Bernard are just amazing.

Not sure on that Mina one tbh, looked just like a fair shoulder barge tbh, although seem to rarely get away with such things in the modern game.

Inconsistent reffing either way as Success got a free kick for a far lighter shoulder 10 mins before!

It wasn't Mina's shoulder that sends the lad over mate, he actually trips him, and gets nothing of the ball.

Chris Sutton reckons Mina should have got red. Normal service has been resumed. Far too much diving in this game, from both sides.

There will be questions asked about our " goal " in Parliament . JUST SHUT UP FFS

Zouma for Mina at halftime might not be the worst decision

No doubt Friend will see/hear about his missed call at the end of the half during the break, Mina will be on thinnest of ice in the second half.

Zouma and Keane have a solid history together too.

Walcott Bernard poor

In what game
Not this one

Anyone who says Walcott has been bad is clueless about football

He has been bad though.

No use getting into good positions if you then dont pick out a team mate. Can have as many good little touches as you like but if everything you do then amounts to nothing then its fair to say hes been bad.

And yes, I know lots about football, thanks.

TV is convinced Mina should have been sent off but I'm really not sure it's even a foul and we can't get an angle from the front side for whatever reason.

I'm not really here for the hard luck stories from referees. Today is the day we benefit and Watford suffer. The roles will be reversed for every non RS team at some point this season. They are all incompetent and we need VAR badly.

 

[Tipp blue]

I'm watching sky sports, and I'm not fully sure if Walcott was offside or not.

 

[KaiserEFC]

Pundits blaming US for the officials mistakes lol

 

[streeky]

Need to slow this game down, being played like a cup final , not really helping us.

Ah fair enough, missed the replay. Looked stronger than half the fouls they got given though so surprising. Ref bottling decisions a bit all over the shop

 

[daza_1973]

did they dissect the RS's offside goal on Saturday as much as they have this one ???
