Match Thread Everton v Wolverhampton Wanderers - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[Fansince1988]

The starting line-up today is the one (bar injuries) that should be persevered with...

I’d be surprised if it isn’t our regular line up, Kean battled well Iwobi looked good earlier on but faded later on. Bernard imo is better from the bench so I’m sure Iwobi will keep his place.

Pampers in the bin time lads

Still think Bernard should have been on 10 minutes earlier when iwobi had tired badly. Iwobi had been good though.

 

[Eggs]

Good win in the end.

...and an important win given we’re not fully up to speed.

Pickford produced what I want him to produce, a mature and settled performance, delighted with Mina who looks a leader who isn’t afraid of the challenge. Delph terrific, but tired as the game went on. Iwobi looked a threat, delighted he scored in the 6 yard box.

Richarlison my MoM. Folk have been unnecessarily worried about him on here. He’s not fancy, but he’s just so effective. I can’t emphasise how good that 2nd goal was; positioning, desire, the timing of the leap to get above Boly and then the presence to direct a header in the corner. It’s everything DCL should be doing from an aerial perspective.

Not complaining about winning this one, but why can't we have a boringly efficient 2-0?
We're a very good home team, but a fairly poor away team. The next step in our development is to be a tougher proposition away from Goodison.

Goals

And could/should have been more. Their keeper kept them in it towards the end.

Thought for Silva... first time he hasn’t lost to Nuno.... he just be proper chufffed...

 

[Tennessee Blue Mike]

Awesome header that. So was Mina's for that matter.

 

[Joey66]

Glad we won with more direct football - as Wolves are strong in midfield we went direct without hoofing it - great winner by Richo just edges him as MOTM.....

Richarlison’s header was superb you know

Thought his bullet against Lincoln was boss. The precision and placement of this header was even better.

Well in Rico. MOTM for me. Delph a close second. Not exactly a relaxing game to watch, but right result in the end.
I think Wolves are going to struggle. We, on the other hand, need to build on this.

Am happy with that I think are midfield looks so much better with Gomes an Delph.
