Naive from Aznou throwing himself to ground there.
He’s got a bit of work to do to get used to the English game.

 

[Rich1878]

Great save from Pickford

 

[overkill]

He needs to practice that area of his game

Yes pretending to be injured is a crucial part of the game lol

 

[kenada_blue]

Under the cosh now. Should be 3.0

 

[Drico]

Seriously sloppy performance this.

I don't expect too much from pre-season, but we are seriously undercooked on and off the pitch. We need new players pronto!

 

[Toffe3m4n]

Getting killed here now.

 

[Verbal Kint]

We’re playing legitimately well, sometimes you miss chances and a game that doesn’t count isn’t the worst time for it

With all due respect, we legitimately don't have enough pace in this side....to say we have played well is clutching.

But not really worried about it being a friendly

Hopefully this performance mobilises our transfer team - we desperately need more quality.

He also said early in the 2nd half “in 2 weeks there’ll be 53,000 fans streaming in to Goodison Park” and didn’t even correct himself.

Yeah heard that mate.

 

[Lob]

Subs killed us tbf but we have a decent starting team and will hopefully have a few more additions to it over the next couple of weeks.

 

[dachshund]

Aznou is 19, the shouts from people expecting him to immediately be better than Myko were always crazy. Myko is the better player. Aznou should be better in the future. Having to start Aznou is not what we want week 1.

Also, playing immediately against Matias Soulé is a challenge and a half

 

[Infernus]

So pre season has told us that we have nothing up front, and we are very leaky at the back. Could be another long season for us. I suspect we aren’t out of the relegation picture as some suspect. We need probably 5 new quality additions.

 

[rochdaleblue]

Here comes Keane and Coleman!

Maybe we’re reverting to continental style football.

 

[Tony’s Carp]

Crowd have been poor here. It’s no Goodison.

Did you really think 13000 extra Evertonians would make things *better*?

 

[BlueHutch]

Thankfully professional players realise that pre season friendly results mean nob all

That's just bollocks.

You don't go from losing 4 out of the last 5 games to suddenly looking great. Naive.
