Carlo came back to win only 2 matches in his entire Everton career
Benitez has already done that in his first 5 games
If we beat villa next week people will still say it’s only villa
I don’t like five at the back, but he did change it. I think he set us up for a physical battle and hoped to use the wings. It didn’t work, it never does with us, but we stayed in the game.
This felt like one of those games were no matter what formation we started with we would have been changing early in the second-half to see if we could do something different. If we had started 433 we probably would have ended up 442 or 451.
The really important thing against the team like Burnley is to be willing to make changes and try something different. It was changing the system at that time in the game gave us the momentum to go on and win it.
Said at the time in the match day thread it was like a rope-a-dope. Benitez let Dyche think he was on top but once the thugs had tired we just glided through the gears and put them to bed and if anything it should have been more emphatic. Dyche looking every inch the footballing dinosaur he is on the side with no answer.
Exactly, hence if we win our next game we will have 13 points.

By contrast Carlo also had a very good record against the top teams. I think if you did a mini league of us and the "big 6" and Leicester last season, we came top or petty close to it.
Burnley stuffed us last year under Carlo .......stop clutching straws Carlos last 2\3rds of the season was pure dross......
Played and got 7 points off of 3 teams who beat us last season all the same.
Did you not see the first 60 minutes when we looked like a Conference side.
Pathetic system set up by the the manager.
Good job it was Burnley as any decent side would have been out of sight.

This was my feeling. Let them do the worst, then make the changes and blow them apart. I always felt if we change the system we would blow them over, they had to wear themselves out first.

Last season Burnley took 4 points off us and schooled us at GP 6 months ago to the day
We drew at Brighton in April in one of our worst games of the run in, we beat them comfortably 2 weeks ago there
Southampton should have taken a deserved point from us in March, we beat them comfortably on the opening day after a wobble
