Match Thread Crystal Palace 2-2 Everton - Sunday 10th May 14:00

[Milkman]

….i just don’t get putting your best defensive midfielder at RB, the lad has just got in the England squad.

Because we've got decent options in midfield and no good options at RB. It's not ideal, but it's the best we have at the moment imo

 

[Marcus Kendall]

tried for tete, got kyboshed last second. was the first signing he tried.

He was a bullet dodged,

Didnt we have two " international" right backs on the bench? Pretty sure they are both getting paid...

 

[Rooney_Tunes]

Jimmy Garner was good
Beto took his goal well
Pickford made some good saves
Rohl showed promise

Barry was awful
Defending in general was lacklustre
Moyes made some poor subs

Standard Everton at the moment

We’re not abysmal but we’re not especially good either

Moyes has run his race imo

Question is whether The Friedkin’s have the plums to do anything about it

I always thought they had the plums - hope we are right.

Typical Davey....no plan B.

international standard right back. was on a free. would have covered a problem naturally for at least a bit.

It sure beats the relegation battles of recent seasons....or does it?
Pretty turgid a watch these days.

Injury prone and the very definition of average and 30 years old. These signings don't progress your club

Good game that. Both teams had a fair few chances so probably a fair result in the end. We got a good little side we're building

disappointing yet again

Era of Walter Smiths favorite saying ...

 

[DrEFC]

I think Moyes has done well with a limited squad, but some of the limit is in his coaching and development of youth players, and some of it his nature of being scared of attacking. If the squad improves sufficiently in quality and numbers, I think the manager has to be replaced.

I think they will

If they think they can keep raising season ticket prices but have a team that keeps finishing 12th then they’ll feel the heat pretty sharpish

That was probably game over for Europe, even though we’re 2 behind Brentford you’d think they would beat Palace next Sunday and could probably afford to lose at Snake Mountain

Defensive indiscretion has pretty much cos us the past 4 games, second goal especially today, and it’s not good enough
