Match Thread AFC Bournemouth v Everton - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[marcus]

Too many mistakes in defence, we made it too easy for them...

At 1-1 we looked the better side but failed to take advantage....

Richarlison gives away an unnecessary free kick in a dangerous position then Delph fails to clear the resulting ball in, we then lose the momemtum & concede a soft third goal due to defenders ball watching...

Should have kept DCL on & gone with 2 up front...
Frustrating beyond belief...

 

[gonetomorrow]

It's a flipping disaster this. If we can't beat Bournemouth..............

 

[Cameron Manning]

We need to recall Penno

You might be joking but it makes sense to me, he moves at least.

 

[ToffeeTim]

It's hard to be positive right now. I'm actually embarassed by the players we have representing us these days.

 

[LEONARD]

Reality check.

A mediocre Bournemouth team beat us 3-1.

That's where we are, and no talk of a POSSIBLE shiny new stadium in 5 years, can make it any more palatable.

 

[BrendanGOT]

What's worse is the majority of us called that happening today, even some of the more positive posters. I never mentioned anything but knew it was coming. This is why we won't get top 6, consistentcy isn't there.

 

[irishtony1878]

Arsenal showing how we should do it against second rate teams.
We are rife with bottlers and no marks

 

[Paul E]

Disgusting performance that. Never even looked like they wanted to get back into it. The subs were awful again and he left both defensive midfielders on when 3-1 down. The set piece scenario is laughable now and he’s too stubborn to change it

 

[Zatara]

Richarlison motm by a mile...

 

[ForeverEverton]

Pretty sure that isn't right

OK Slightly over exagerated...... 44%, under half of the value... Have I missed anyone?

[Desaparecido]

Things won't really improve until the centre of midfield is sorted out. Ie November so don't hold your breath!

 

[Toffeepot]

Agree with that entirely.
It seems that every time Schneiderlin plays we look like we did under Koeman, whenever he is confronted by players with pace he is just left standing there sucking his thumb. If we are short of players in his position then give one of the youngsters a game, we might uncover a hidden gem.

It's a bit unfair to single out Schneiderlin as bad as he was, Delph was awful today

 

[TheBigIguana]

I just don't understand switching up a functioning attack by playing DCL. I know he scored. I still don't get it.

 

[efcforever]

We are very much in the 10-7th bracket. Nothing more, nothing less. Just as we´ve been in the last 15 years.

I agree with this. Looking very much like we'll achieve around 50 points which will see us finish around 8th/9th.

 

[marsh]

I really really really really really really really really really really really really really really miss Gana Gueye
