Match Thread Everton v Arsenal - Monday December 6th. 8pm

[TheBigIguana]

Iwobi is terrible and doesn't do anything right ever

And yet we almost always have more creativity when he plays than when he doesn't.

He's not very good but you just have to have a player that gets into spaces even if they can't personally do much with them. It unsettles things just enough.

 

[Sassy Colombian]

We really should we winning this match, just when we have played with some heart then our luck failed us ? But there is still a second half and until it is over we still have a chance to turn things around. COYB

 

[ForeverEverton]

This team is like Boris Johnson, all bluster and no real substance.... No shots on target, not likely to win this game.

Win is gone now IMO, we wont score 2.

 

[navidson]

No. Unavailable.

What does that mean?

 

[Lubsy]

I'm confused was it 27 minutes the ground was meant to empty..... or are we waiting until 87mins when we are 3-0 down....

Typical everton cnt even stage a protest right

 

[BlueToff]

How badly organised is that defence for the goal?

I'm sorry, that is coaching. There's no pressure as a team, the shape is ludicrous.

 

[DanB90]

Oh and as usual we're not opening teams up at all without Iwobi but when he comes on and we do have more openings it won't be because of Iwobi at all

This has got to be satire at this point, surely?!

What bluster? We know we're crap.

 

[Vedder]

Once again Keane dropping the defence deep..allowing for them to play the first ball in between the lines to start the move...

 

[Blueclouds]

Where iwobi, give us something to rant about

 

[Milkman]

We just do nothing. We don't press, we don't form attacks, it's all just relying on their mistakes which Arsenal have tbf done and handed us our chances. Unlucky with the offside goal but it's offside. Then fall asleep at the other end because Arsenal actually were sparked into a bit of life.

This was the case long before Benitez came about though. You'd have to have a real agenda to suggest otherwise.

 

[blueconverse]

Branthwaite on and move Holgate to rightback. Its just cruel at this point on Coleman

 

[Verbal Kint]

We've honestly been pretty decent here but just no real way of scoring. Really unlucky to have conceded but now we have to score two to win and probably can't. I'd like to see Townsend on the wing.

If you think that was decent lad then your standards are very low. The worst game of football I've seen all season.... Arsenal 63% possession away from home and they are useless. We've huffed and puffed and Godfrey has thrown in a few dirty tackles.

Been awful

 

[TheBigIguana]

No. He's a bad player, but a bad creative player is still more than we've got at the minute.

 

[Sharpies volley]

Gordon, like a rabbit in the headlights. Our problems tonight are on both flanks. Colemans quite obviously finished and Godfreys not a left back.
