Match Thread Burnley V Everton preview thread/match day thread

[Toffeemeister]

Until we buy a player with some creativity we're going nowhere fast.

We spent 28 million on Bolasie !

We bought someone who supposedly runs all day. His creative stats were awful but that's what Koeman wants.

He's more Moyes than Moyes.

Exactly. He's a taller stronger Lennon but nowhere near as effective imo.

I'd bring on Del and Lennon.

I really wish Koeman would start using some of our youngsters. They may not be experienced but they'll run themselves in to the ground for the team which is more than what most of our first team do.

I can't believe any of our young strikers aren't better than that waste of space Valencia either.

4am here...I do not know why I do it to myself.
All Blacks did well though. I guess supporting Everton is a counterbalance to supporting the ABs

Spare a thought for the Everton and England supporters. I support Everton and Portugal myself so I'm sound (sort of)

While this is true, the three of them just haven't turned up so far, for me.

They're all Lukaku has for service and not one of them is trying to take the initiative and make something happen, so we're looking toothless up top.

But the problem is Lukaku is static, constantly. He's a part of the overall unit, so he is responsible as well.

Reality is that's three mates who are taking the piss and haven't shown up. No effort from any of them.

Yeah, Lukaku will probably score here, but its yet another example of him being anonymous.

Who do you bring on though? No one in midfield can pick a pass. Have all the fancy wingers you want, they can't do nowt with flat slow passes behind them.

 

[rochdaleblue]

Problem is Mori isn't any better

But holgate is.

 

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

Its worrying that this bunch of players cannot get motivated for a premier league game.

Motivating is what Koeman is supposedly good at.

And yet, you BARELY notice him when he's not on the ball..

Actually don't think we played bad first half, just missed that final ball/bit of luck to carve them open a fair few times, only times they have had a bit of pressure on us has came via jagielka making stupid mistakes/getting repeatedly beaten in the air, manage to sort that out should have them under constant pressure second half and get a few goals here.

Know it's the cool kid vogue to just slate us whenever we aren't winning like but hey ho

 

[paulbefc]

If we give Lukaku and actual chance, he'll score it. So far he's had one, that was outside the box. Against Burnley. With 3 attackers behind him.

Unforgivable. A change in the "creative" player department or at least a rocket up the arse for the three of them at half time needed.

 

[gaino92]

Barkley or Gana have been our best player

 

[Saint Domingo]

We'll come out like nothing has happened at the same lethargic tempo as usual. For once can this side show a bit of passion please.
