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

[BlueToff]

Richarlison can't play up top in this league.

Not when you're just lumping it up to him he can't.

If you play him in front of someone who's willing to play passes in behind, it's a different matter.

This is on Benitez. As bad a half of football as has been served up in the last few years. Totally ill-fitting system.

 

[the golden visionary]

he’s vile

I Hate him more hhan miralles

 

[allen]

Bad half of football. Not just for Evertonians. Football is the real loser out there.

 

[JMT]

These are like that Sunday league team with just big old husky men who just boot you all day and maybe score the odd goal, Proper scruffs.

 

[TheBigIguana]

The club captain has called out the terrible mentality at Everton himself on numerous occasions. So put him on 'ignore' then.

It's a fact the squad has, for years, consisted of varying degrees of mentally woeful footballers who cave under the slightest bit of expectation. It's not hard to find the current lot that do.

I don't read media put out by the club very often so I guess I kind of have

 

[Sharpattack]

Digne has been crap for ages too. He only goes under the radar because he doesn't try and score an own goal every week like Keane.

I was thinking the same thing. His corners suck and I can’t remember the last time he made a successful cross from the wing.

 

[MrD]

That's a face that says....."This is awful"

 

[BlueStevie35]

We just can’t play against their shithousing tactics, we’ve played some good stuff when we’ve had the ball though. I’d hook Keane, get Rondon on and go back to 442 second half

 

[Frenk]

Digne is playing absolutely awful football right now. They look like they are reverting to type at home again.

 

[Lee Smith]

What an utterly uninspiring load of dross that half was. The most shakey we’ve looked at the back all season and we’re playing 5 defenders FFS. Absolutely no end product whatsoever either.

 

[sageyefc]

Crap half that, only positive is our gk kit is nice, bit different than usual isn’t it

 

[jazzy]

Time for Benitez to earn his James size salary

 

[Death]

Watch Benitez change this.

 

[Sharpattack]

These are like that Sunday league team with just big old husky men who just boot you all day and maybe score the odd goal, Proper scruffs.

Which, Everton or Burnley?

And who thought Carlo couldn't get us to play silky football?
