Big Dunc testimonial - EFC vs Villareal at Goodison, Sun Aug 2nd

[ijjysmith]

Kone is not good enough, he lost whatever he has. Time for Martinez to relized this and sell him and being someone else in

Why do people always say this like there would be a massive line of teams waiting to get their hands on him?!

Ace to see some fuming. Keep it up gents.

 

[BlueToff]

went off with 5 to go to ht,pointing to ankle on sideline,whatever he might have done

Ah right. Hopefully it's nothing serious, but can see the 'Mirallas to be assessed within 48 hours' story on the website already haha!

 

[Tubey]

How many times does it break down once it gets to Kone or Naismith?

Apart from that a much improved performance. The crowd even got going for a short spell.

The passing was much faster and sharper than anything else in pre-season and most of last season although we seemed to lose confidence once they scored.

We need to buy a new No 10 and backup striker.

Worrying about Mirallas too. Did anyone see what he did. He did give one of our players a look after the tackle and I thought something wasn't right but couldn't see what it might be.

Thing is though, whilst it's easy to blame Kone/Naismith, the exact same thing happens - sometimes worse - when Lukaku plays too.

We just need a general Plan B as well as more personnel. This is the same turgid crap we saw last season; I'd have hoped we'd have seen something different from a manager needing to impress in the first three months to keep his job basically.

Great of the crowd to ease the tension in that first half and give a few renditions of Kone Kone Kone..

I thought they were chanting Rooney, Rooney, Rooney.

 

[Milkman]

Kone's looking sharp.

 

[Titus Bramble]

why bring on naismitj, sigh. I really don't want to fume when its big duncs testimonial but martinez is not making it easy for me.

Don't be daft.

Only saw from 10 minutes on, but again our lack of creativity, pace and sheer zest is really a disgrace.

Don't be daft.

 

[LinekersLegs]

What happened with Kev? Got no commentary on the stream.

He made a nice recovery tackle on the left side of our box but appeared to hurt his ankle doing it - at least he pointed to his ankle and then that area of the pitch when he talked to Martinez.

 

[bizzaro]

Ace to see some fuming. Keep it up gents.

I'm getting prepared for a season of Kone here.

Get rid. Not good enough.

 

[snipellis11]

Thought we played alright that half, knocked the ball about quite well but just can't get that final bit right.

 

[Jags..class]

Why do people always say this like there would be a massive line of teams waiting to get their hands on him?!

I know but he must be able to do a job for a championship club

 

[ianefc]

Are you kidding?

We were knocking the ball about very well but without Lukaku it all comes to nought.

Dont throw the baby out with the bathwater.

You see different thing to me, but I didn't mention us knocking the ball around I'm talking about creativity. It's been the same [Poor language removed] for 15 months. Zero creativity

 

[BlueToff]

Not when the flick on happened but where it dropped was where Stones should have been.

I thought this too at first but it wasn't, it was Osman on No.9. Stones was marking the lad at the back stick and tried to cover at the last minute. Don't start an agenda against him now cos' Chelsea are after him.

Not spurised when you have kone upfront

 

[ijjysmith]

Doubt it.
