Match Thread Everton V Aston Villa. Sat Sep 13th. 3pm

[matty1878]

He did in Southampton, and can't be worse than Beto s knotted legs

ha ha he’s not a striker
mate or is he coming on to be a striker

 

[MaximusEvertonius]

Ndiaye set him up perfectly early on. That one had me yelling at the tele when Beto took it off both boots.

Wouldn’t be against Coleman on the left and jimmy back in the middle. Tim was okay in defensive moves that half but slowed us on the attack with conservative passing

 

[Brett Angell Delight]

No one can ever realistically explain why referees would either risk their own career by being blatantly biased against Everton or why a general overaching anti Everton agenda was actually thwarted by the PL by not letting 777 destroy us.

I personally suppose it is easier to accept conspiracy therapies than we have been utter gash during the PL years.

Absolutely.

“You know who needs taking down a peg or two, with the help of some monumentally subtle but relentlessly persistent hindrance from a team of corrupt referees? That team who have never once seriously troubled the title picture in the Premier League, or even beaten those that have on any kind of consistent basis.” Is a conversation I find it hard to imagine happening.

The biggest issue and reason we aren’t ahead are the best striker and #10 in the squad are on the bench

What does this have to do with Tims first half?

 

[Joey66]

Beto is awful at controlling the ball - should have put us 1- 0 up early on kicked it with both feet he causes trouble bustling but that's about it - we were the better team early on, have faded - Betos headed lay off also give them their best chance - give him 10 minutes & change our approach upfront ...

 

[Tommy Chong]

i’d rather we had two mate

I’d rather we stuff them 4/5-0, Matty.

 

[OzarkBlue]

There was a sequence of play that typifies what Beto has to deal with. At one point he was absolutely getting ridden like a rented mule - no call and then he turns around and gives half of that to the defender and he gets called for a foul.

 

[formerly manx toffee]

Good half from Illiman

 

[matty1878]

I’d rather we stuff them 4/5-0, Matty.

that to but let’s score one first ( hope)

 

[captainvindaloo]

Ndiaye on the ball never ceases to amaze me. I would hate to have to play against him.

 

[Dixieslaces]

Beat Villa, we go (joint) top

Get 6 , we're top, Come on Everton

 

[brieverton]

Reasonably happy there. Kept possession well, looked compact and showed intent.
They came into it more as the half progressed.
Need a strong start to the second half and hopefully can take a chance that comes their way.

 

[Deulofeumygod]

Beto and Tim only weak links.

Should be winning.

 

[Only-Blue-toffees]

Ref isn’t letting the game flow at all. We need to take some shots instead of walking it into the box. We do look like we have goals in us that’s for sure. Just need to go at them right away 2nd half
