It doesn’t help we don’t have a striker but it’s even worst that we have zero creativity

We can’t rely on Gordon and Gray. Better buy Terrier.

 

[Chegsy]

Frustrating because Villa don’t look great so far either. They will start to get frustrated themselves. We look like we don’t have a clue though.

Absolutely. Everyone keeps forgetting this. We are relying wholly on the wide men.

 

[Nymzee]

Don’t understand the long GK’s. Basically conceded possession with no striker on.

 

[Tony1985]

Never thought I’d say this but we need Rondon to put himself about.

 

[allen]

Nah.

Both instant improvements though imo, look solid

I’ve not got a sense of their body shape or movement yet. It’ll come!

 

[Saint Domingo]

They have no service because we have two midfielders and one hasn't completed a pass

Should get hooked at half time if he carries on like this, absolute rubbish. Everything wrong with Everton compared to his levels last week, unacceptable.

 

[Charlie Sweet]

Can feel a goal for us coming up soon.

Hopefully Onana and Gueye(or someone else) will mean we can play Alli for some creativity for a striker we bring in/Calvert Lewin.

We do look a lot better at the back so that's something to build on.

 

[Nyhus]

Did Gray touch the ball yet?

 

[Matthew mcdonnell]

Think lack of belief when you've not for that focal point/out ball is massive. Was a big problem last season for us too.

agree but we gotta play it through the lines better then, lumping to gordon is awful man

 

[bigboy]

So sloppy

 

[PhilM]

I know it's very (very) early although if things stay as they are I'd be considering Rondon on and perhaps Onana in the middle to give some movement.

 

[Everton1654]

Make a sub, it's inevitable they are going to score

 

[twoblue]

Needs more work upfront from Gordon.
Not pressing, not holding things up.
