Match Thread Everton 0-0 Brentford, Saturday 23rd November, 3pm

I think the height of the manager's ambitions today might be Beto for Calvert Lewin on 68 minutes.

Probably closer to the 80th.

Flekken trying to get his own player sent off

 

[Melchizedek]

Yes, he generally converts about one every 50 or so attempts.

Same rate as everyone else on the squad then

If anyone fancies drowning their sorrows after the game then Brentford are 8/1 !!!

 

[when i score we riot]

I still remember the 1885 Cup Final against Man Utd. As soon as Kevin Moran was sent off I started to was worry. Can't complain about Whiteside's goal later, it was a beauty - from where I was sat I watched the ball bend as it beat big Nev - but it was a loss against 10 men when we were going for the double.

You've been around for a few years havent you

Set piece only way we will score

Get two strikers up top you sweaty , Lynx wearing galoot.

it’s very hard for players in the box watching a ball come down from above and be completely aware of all of their immediate surroundings….its a limitation of the human eye. We can only actually see exactly where we’re looking - the brain fills in the peripheral as best it can but won’t see movement at all.

So any ball bouncing in the box scenarios become an absolute gamble in that case - extend a leg to go for goal and expect a red if you clip an unseen player….But pull out and miss a guilt edged chance

Yes it is, but it is still dangerous and a potential leg breaker. No intent on his part, but a bad one still.

 

[lieneverton]

This is simply must win.

 

[allen]

This is going to be a very frustrating half.

 

[Toffe3m4n]

Brentford already cracking on with the time-wasting tactics here.

 

[nsno-chris]

Probably closer to the 80th.

Nah the Beto DCL sub is always 62-72 minute mark

Harrison is in the 80’s

 

[JohnRoss23]

For the love of God and all that is holy, please Everton!!

Not seeing what Doucs is offering out there

You can’t see nothing to be fair

State of these Brentford players going down screaming before realising they took each other out
