Match Thread Everton v Rotherham. Sat. 9th Jan, 2021. 12.00. FA Cup 3rd round

[MACCA75]

We can’t cope whenever a team presses high

 

[sheedys left foot]

Coleman, davies, cenk and gomes all been poor for last 30

Months?

 

[Brett Angell Delight]

Coleman, davies, cenk and gomes all been poor for last 30

Cenk been largely poor since day 1, Gomes has been dump for the last couple of years. Let’s not be all that surprised.

 

[T LEAFE]

Only 45 to go
We can do it

 

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

This first half shows just how big a job Carlo has on his hands sorting us out.

 

[when i score we riot]

Pheeew, was seeing that deflected luckily in, Rotherham striker probably kicking himself that he didnt.

 

[Jim Hopper]

We can’t handle their pressing game here.

 

[GrandOldTeam]

Think the commentators TOSHHUN has annoyed me more than Everton's centre midfield today.

 

[McBain]

Being ahead despite playing poorly is the hallmark of a very good team.

 

[bluejohn66]

I always had Davies down as a championship player, Rotherham have proved me wrong!

 

[UltraVires]

Enjoyed hearing Carlo in this one. Nice to know he feels the frustration like we do.

For me I’d look at making subs soon:

Simms for Tosun (he’s scored but done not much else)
Bernard for James (he’s got minutes which is the main aim here)
Nkounkou for Digne (same reason as above).

 

[TheBigIguana]

I'm not really sure why Davies is getting slaughtered here. Yeah he's not the greatest but he's working with a load of crap on his side of the pitch. Coleman is a disaster in possession. Godfrey isn't great. Iwobi has no clue how to find space because Coleman is constantly running into him. And Gomes isn't very helpful at all. I just don't know what he's meant to do.

 

[Death]

I’m convinced the original Tom Davies died and this is just another player pretending to be him, like Avril Lavigne or Paul McCartney.

He was a skater boy, then died some time later boy.

He isn't good enough for us.

 

[Toffeelover]

Good job Pickers is not playing, we would be losing.

 

[Toffee in Jandals]

One positive, our defending from corners / long balls. If this was Silva / Martinez era Everton, we'd be 2-1 down at halftime
