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

[MockBu4]

Worst Everton performance I’ve seen in a long long time.

we say this quite often, guess we become a sommelier of garbage

 

[hktoffee]

We'll nick this with a jammy goal.

Or Gomes gives away a pen?

 

[peteblue]

I just checked, this Hirst fella has never scored for Rotherham.

You are welcome.

oh ffs.....

 

[Lob]

Dunno losing to Liverpool’s 2nd XI was bad.

Yeah your right that was definitely the worst. This ones not far off it though.

 

[Super Kevin sheedy]

Really, really fed up with Everton, I don’t know what to say anymore

 

[MikeH72]

I can’t believe there are people out there that think we can’t find a better midfielder than Andre Gomes in January for less than £40m

 

[Nymzee]

I just checked, this Hirst fella has never scored for Rotherham.

You are welcome.

He’s the lad we tried to sign.

 

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

We'd only have one shot on target until about ten minutes ago. In fact, it still might only be one shot on target.

Our only shot on target was our goal mate.

 

[Jim Hopper]

Terrible. Just pure and utter terrible.

 

[TheBigIguana]

Godfrey is utterly dire with the ball. Hasn't a friggin clue what to do

Been saying it for weeks

 

[UltraVires]

Storming for what? So Brands can tell him to do his job?

Carlo is fighting a losing battle with this team. He still has a second string that he inherited that he just cannot trust.

Brands and Carlo need to realise that and you can tell from Carlos face that he does

 

[andy4efc]

Carlo won’t come after and say it was trash as well. He’ll dress it up all nice. Needs to call out the constant under performers

 

[Furey1878]

Truly painful viewing

 

[the golden visionary]

I said the other week about us getting dominated by teams because they aren't afraid to play us and get hammered for it. I was telling the truth. case and point

we are being dominated by a team 23rd in the championship.

1 shot on target

 

[Steve EFC]

Tall lad on the bench who has pace and power in the midfield. He's chosent o paly Davies and Gomes in the prem. I love CA, but he continues to play them when he could turn around and say they are not good enough to the board.. Yet we are "not looking to sign players".

Two subs, neither have gone off. Gordon and Iwobi. instead of the two clowns in midfield. Doucoure could have started this game, no reason he couldn't. He's very athletic, strong, fast and could do two games in a few days

OBVIOUSLY CA knows better than all of us, but it's a question that isn't without merit. What does he see in Davies and Gomes? They offer nothing in every game they play..

I’m not sure what he sees in them either, if he does at all. I have a feeling he doesn’t rate them and would replace them in a flash! (I hope)
Let’s be fair though you and I would have thought that those two players would have enough to get past these lot...
