Match Thread Leeds 1-0 Everton, Mon 18 Aug, 8.00pm

[WilliamBoo]

RB and R Winger urgent.

Not good is it. Full backs have been solid enough defending tbf but the balance of the team all over the shop.

Zero pace moving forward - game like this Beto has to do more and win us some free kicks and get us up the pitch. No service but he’s losing everything.

 

[stretford blue]

Expected them to come all guns blazing for 15 / 20 mins then settle down but we haven't strung two passes together and the formation is disjointed

 

[BainesontoastNEW]

Prediction: we'll go Tanaka's yard if they score first with our "give it to Pickford" mentality.

 

[Bebeto]

Absolutely shocking first half

Shocking is an under statement...

 

[LostLegend]

Moyes needs to lay into these at half time.
We're supposed to be a counter attacking team, yet every time we've got the ball near their area it's ended up being slowly passed back to the defense.

Just put the ball in the box ffs.

 

[Preki]

0-0 mission accomplished for first 45m.
We will now ramp it up

Hopefully

 

[Axlswhk]

Absolute rubbish [Poor language removed] show, the players let the manager down with Martinez level of pressing.
Leeds had all the time in the world to pick a pass.

 

[Yarrgh]

Poor. The Yorkshire scruffs will be blowing next half.

The dopes have been roped. Now hit emblues.

 

[TexanToffee]

Hope we get some subs on. One of the worst halves I've seen.

 

[Simon Buttle]

Its like watching Brazil 1970

 

[knowing your history]

Wow, that was bad. Just losing constant 50/50s in midfield is not great. Only positive it is 0-0 and hopefully will still be when Grealish is on as will give them something to think about on the break.

Don't understand Garner at LB at all and if ever a game showed the need for another three signings urgently it is this one.

Moyes must be tempted to bring on Dwight, move Garner to the right and go 3atb in second half.

 

[matty1878]

deeney what are you on their

“jack grealish has walked into everton football club and said why have i done this”

utter yardog

 

[TheBigIguana]

That was just comically bad. I think what frustrates me the most is in a game when you’re struggling your supposedly good with his feet GK and supposedly good in the air CF should be able to relieve the pressure a time or two, but Pickford and barely deliver a contestable ball and Beto has no interest in contesting it anyway.

Maybe one day I’ll figure out what Dewsbury Hall actually does. Not looking like it’ll be today.

 

[formerly manx toffee]

Need to find some balance. Leeds will blow out their arses after 60. We will win this
