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

[MockBu4]

Watched 1hf since the middle, and it was very poor considering the side we play against. Guess we still win this, but with that kind of performance, we are no way near to have this cup. And yet we have to fight. You can play not good enough, but it is the desire to fight that makes you better in the end.

Overslept. How's it been?

It will put you back asleep

ZZZZZZZZZ Cars

I don’t want to see the 2009 final again thanks BT sport

Yeah that was annoying.

 

[BlueToff]

When you look at our bench we haven't got one player who could come on and change the game.

Yeah. And that’s constantly the issue.

bernard, probably - like he did v Sheff Utd.

Don’t lose faith mate, every one of those players has it in them to come on and make us worse.

The annoying thing about Gomes is he has the technique to play through the press but can't ever actually do it.

 

[bicycleheader]

Get into them toffees

we want 5

 

[Dublin blue 75]

Sun still a factor for them in this half at least

 

[No8Bally]

Rotherham gone home?

Simms could be

Could be not

We'll never know

 

[UltraVires]

I'm not sure Simms does.

We have to find out sooner or later otherwise he can be marked down as another one Unsworth has won stuff with but has failed to make it through beyond that.

Any other club we’d be asking Unsworth why the academy teams can do well in those competitions but that is where the players peak whereas Everton promote him so there is even less oversight...

​

Everton running out of steam after ten minutes made it an enjoyably close first half, now the scene is set for a Rotherham Utd hero to step up and knock us out. I think our quality will show through and we'll net two or three more goals this half to be honest. COYB!

​

 

[Brett Angell Delight]

Hmm. I think we started fine, but immediately relaxed after scoring. That’s the issue, and they grew into the game. We then have Coleman and Keane - who should be leading and organising - saying nothing, and our midfielders are all so quiet too.

Only bloke shouting is Olsen

I always feel like shouting and pointing is a bit overrated. I’d much rather they passed to each other and that.

 

[UltraVires]

Cenk scored from his one chance to be fair... Since the goal we've created nothing

I agree, I just think we need to see what Simms can do especially because is Cenk leaves we might only have him left the way we tend to operate

 

[Death]

That's not fair they had 2 mins extra team talk.
