But holgate is.

Too young to put that much pressure on

 

[toffeejack]

thought ovideo has been really good in an attacking sense though

 

[MartyMcFly]

Problem is Mori isn't any better

At least he scores

 

[Tubey]

What's he done? Had a shot on target for once?

Oo-ee. Other than that he's been as good as the rest of them.

Hes linked play, moved into space, even won tackles. Our best player by a mile.

Seriously, are people at the stage of just automatically having a go at Barkley regardless of the actual game?

 

[Tennessee Blue Mike]

No excitement we looked nurtured. First ten minutes in the second half we will see if we have the right stuff today. We are stuck in neutral it seems.

 

[Tin-Tin]

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.

I agree when they have been on the ball they arnt creating enough or the movement isnt good enough but there is too much hoofball being played at the minute. If we had a Pelle, Drogba etc thats great but for his size, Rom is awful in the air yet we seem to be waiting for him to turn into Duncan Ferguson all of a sudden.

The more we keep the ball on the floor the better chance we have of creating something

 

[brieverton]

Bring Lennon on, always busy and works hard. Underrated qualities in this squad.

 

[MartyMcFly]

Our best defender too

 

[Whistlin' Dixie]

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.

Lennon yes - Deulofeu, hasn't done anything better than anyone when he has played - doubt that'd change today.

 

[bazzer25]

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.

Maybe he's thinking it's not worth it because none of them are capable of creating anything?

 

[joseph]

Let's go! 3-1 to Everton

 

[rochdaleblue]

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.

Agreed. Surely Davies, dowell and Walsh can't be any worse from the under 23s.

 

[kenada_blue]

Barkley or Gana have been our best player

The only ones making us tick and linking play.

Literally got 3 strong, pacy, skillful, powerful players in front of them and all 3 haven't done anything.

 

[MartyMcFly]

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.

Agreed. Dowel and Davies deserve a chance.

Screw it. I wish we had given the job to Unsworth

 

[DownOnTheUpside]

why isn't barkley running there
