Match Thread Everton v Brighton Hove Albion - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[MondayHater]

T How has just slammed Pickford and said he's no longer good enough for us

Hold off half time till tommorrow get gloves on Timmy and even with jet lag I would take him

 

[Bkk Andy]

Is it just me or was that our best half of the season? It’s just we have an absolute scarecrow in goal

Scarecrows don't drop things

 

[KaiserEFC]

I'd like to think Carlo has made a decision about Pickford now.

He’s not thick, he’d have made it absolutely ages ago. Unfortunately we needed an entire new midfield and got that for the price of one keeper

 

[BigBlueConk]

Need to get through this.
Pickford and iwobi. We are playing with 9 men.

We have a great manager and he still puts Iwobi on over the rest of better options.

 

[Drico]

We're a very strange hybrid, right now: a combination of technical excellence and personality holed under the bow by incompetence and brainlessness. For every James pass, Doucoure cross or Mina intervention, there's an Iwobi tumbleweed moment and Pickford brainfart. I'll be honest: I don't think we can afford that this season and I very much doubt we'll get away with it today.

Pickford is in a trough of his own making, and I think it could be spiral now. Everyone has lost confidence in him. I have no faith in someone who says things like "I am mentally strong", let alone his performances.

Ancelotti might have to apply some classic Italian tactical nous to see this one through, but I fear we are fatally undermined.

 

[Nyhus]

I'd like to think Carlo has made a decision about Pickford now.

He has to know its just a matter of time before Jordan damages our chances of reaching our ambitions asap.

 

[Verbal Kint]

I can't even make an excuse for that goal, going to be a tough 2nd half. The threat of Richarlison behind is gone, personally would have went for Gordon not that Iwobi has done anything wrong.

 

[Sassy Colombian]

the Columbian connection

Colombian ; )

 

[This is my name]

They're asking Tim on NBCSN if Pickford is good enough haha

Said no too shockingly

 

[Tiny Timmy]

Digne getting ignored by iwobi down the overlap looks like it's frustrating him.

 

[BlueToff]

Davies just can't get near players. No power to him at all.

The difference between Richarlison and Iwobi really is remarkable. In terms of how they both fit into the system. Richarlison presses us 10 yards up the pitch.

 

[pedrom]

How good is Coleman today! Electric

 

[Dunc's elbow]

Tim Howard just slammed Pickford on the stream I have.

 

[Milk]

It may be unpopular to say this based on the general consensus towards him these days, but Gylfi has been excellent this half. Doucouré and Coleman too.

Gylfi or Gomes?

On balance, possibly Gylfi for me or do I mean Gomes?

 

[Frenk]

They're asking Tim on NBCSN if Pickford is good enough haha

Tim is better than him though. I’d take Tim over pickles now.
