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

[PhilM]

The league has started, why do we still need 3 first team players? It’s negligent at best

There are injuries, which you have to take into account, and Grealish being fit will help too. We will make more acquisitions before the window closes.

 

[DualityNSNO]

He’s not harrying anything like he was last season.
Whether it’s fitness or tactical, no idea.

His strength is through balls to him or whipped crosses/fast one-two/give-and-go. We boot it up to him, if it even reaches him.

Dycheball lives on, even down to the #10 not touching the ball for ages and just pressing. Sadly in this case the #10 actually has footballing ability and is probably our best midfielder so it makes no sense to not play through him, but here we are.

O'Brien I believe has now been exposed as a player who needs a defensive player who runs his backside off in front, I hate Harrison and liked Lindstrom but without either he looks exactly like a young CB playing out of position.

Gana looked out of sorts first half. Saw him pointing Carlos to chase back while he meandered back. Not like him

 

[JohnRoss23]

I’m sure Moyes said no changes but everyone will be on a short leash. Right thing to do? Don’t know. We will see.

 

[Kirkles]

We'll win this 1 nil

 

[Mutzo Nutzo]

Find a happy place

 

[MikeH72]

I mean he’s really looked at that and gone “yep this doesn’t need changing in any way shape or form”

Welp.

 

[Rita_Poon]

better stuff Illy and Hall...

 

[davek]

Everton kept them waiting a bit there. Pay back for the KO.

 

[Bedfordblue]

Much like when Dyche reverted to a tracksuit and our fortunes improved, Moyes needs to get that beige Cardy out the cupboard and ditch this man in black look.

Everyone did to be honest. Really worrying signs, hopefully be proved wrong.

 

[Toffe3m4n]

Getting dangerously close to 'Moyes is treating this as a write-off' territory...

 

[Drico]

All about the result this. The performance won't matter a jot if we get the result. The performance - and the lack of changes at half-time - will matter a whole lot if we don't...

His strength is making himself a headache to play against , jogging around for 45 minutes is not that.
