Match Thread Barnsley vs. Everton - Wednesday 26th August - Capital One Cup Second Round - 19:45 KO

[Professor Toffee]

Robles is so bad that he looks like one of those keepers trying to throw a game.

He's not dependable enough to throw a game

 

[Saint Domingo]

Get Barkley and Osman on.

 

[Tchnique]

We can't get up for these games.

Locker room leadership needs righting. Because there's no excuse for this. None.

Some people have said it, and I will too, Jags doesn't seem like a captain for a side like this. Team needs someone with a fire under their arse.

 

[VentureBrosEFC]

Mate, you need to have a look at my pie charts if you think McGeady hasn't proved himself to us.

Hmm ... Could that be how many pies he's had while stealing a wage on our bench?

 

[BluePeadar]

No, I am. Because I have said '[Poor language removed] it' and I am going to the pub, with his daughter, who I'll then mega [Poor language removed].

COME ON EVERTON!!!

Nice one
"Needless to say I had the last laugh"...

 

[Khalekan]

11/4 to qualify?

I am having some of that.

 

[uknightbreed]

I'm pretty sure I could inject some smack , drink 20 pints , crap myself , take 20acid tabs and still be more productive and have more of a point than Naismith ......... total fraud imo !

 

[Bluerover]

Oh to be a fly on the wall in the Everton dressing room right now.

"That was fantastic but now we need to be phenomenal. Barnsley is a special club and we must respect this. We must keep possession and pass all the time,,,,etc etc etc "

Result - we go out of this infernal competition yet again

 

[diggerdestroyer]

Played well imo, couple of mistakes, but working hard, creating a lot of space and some good balls

Betting RM will sub him with Osman. That would be typical

 

[No8Bally]

I'd log onto Xhamster but I could not make it last 45 minutes...

 

[Eric Djemba-Djemba]

@Eric Djemba-Djemba

Another 40 of those and he'll be as crap as Howard.

 

[BernieWright13]

I will be shocked if Stones comes out for the 2nd half. He should be nowhere near that team and his ongoing saga is clearly affecting their performances, but doesn't excuse them.

Leave stones on but set besic to man-mark him. And I do mean "mark"

 

[4737carlin]

Cleverly is not the worst player on the pitch. What about Robbles, Jagielka, Lukaku, Naismith and McGeady?

I no mate, i agree with you, as a unit we are shocking, only thing is we gifted them two goals there and did have chances that should of gone in, but none of that matters now because they scored and we ddn't

 

[tnc85]

Sadly agree. McGeady is... watching that early chance he had, it's just upsetting.

And as for Oviedo, I always thought that after that double leg break he wouldn't be the same player, upsetting to see.

Let's hope it's just match practice he needs to get back to his best!

 

[ToffeeDan]

Robles off - anyone in goal.
