Match Thread Everton 0-0 Liverpool - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[Neiler]

Yep Gomez just did enough to deflect.

More annoyed we didnt go for it at 70+ mimutes.

Thought the DCL header was a poor miss.

Me too Richy had the beating of Loveren. But the fulcrum of the win, was the two deep banks of four midfield and defense ,giving no space between the lines if we opened up they live and thrive in those areas. We were unlucky we should have scored four on the break.

 

[f.t.r.s]

The funny thing is, apart from the Digne decision I though he did okay.

Call me bias but he seemed to blowing for them before the players were half way through the challenges...
Also liked how class and dignity fc clearly forgot to pass the blm memo to their own players,
Mane sprinting off towards goal while everyone else took a knee

Coleman easy MOM, he’s the ultimate pro.
He looked fitter and sharper than every other blue because he probably was.

jamie carragher says Everton deserved to win

 

[ToffeeDevil]

Should be Coleman. Didn't think Davies added anything tbh, I'm tired of his backpasses. just bc he looked better than he has isn't enouuh for me. Had he finished, he'd get the motm

My assumption is we were hoping we could catch them when they were tired late on, but all in all very unlucky

 

[blueconverse]

Thanks Lids. If City do a job tomorrow’s they can’t win it against us on Wednesday.Hoping Roy signs Dwight Gayle as an emergency loan just in case.
Very disciplined performance tonight. Well in.

Good work chaps.

Isnt it beautiful? Hating that lot brings us all together

 

[blulouie]

Couldn’t realistically have hoped for more.

We could ....we could have watched a good movie.

 

[SantaClausisanEvertonian]

I'll take not losing to the vermin in a pre-season kickabout I suppose.
Very little to shout about from either our fans or their customers today.
Roll on normality.

 

[Seathestars]

Imagine Carlo with half decent players. How did we get a draw

 

[Ring master]

 

[Disgruntledgoat]

I need to drink some bleach now, but Carragher is right. Having loads of posession is meaningless if you do nothing with it. They never tested Pickford.

 

[nsno-chris]

My interest in this game was such that I didn’t even no it kicked off before 8

cant be arsed, seasons dead and Sky own football in this country. The clubs must dance to their tune

 

[Neiler]

...yep, we are forced to do that with the lack of pace we have. I doubt that would be the team model with different personnel.

We will see mate, I think he likes a deep compact back four, but as you say that might change. Thought Digne, Keane, Coleman and Holgate were brilliant. Davies and Gomes to defensively it’s a hard system to stay disciplined in when it’s not your natural game.

Was a win for good tactics today, without Carlo I think we loose today.

He did this to them with Napoli earlier in the year.

 

[The Trinity.]

Ok folks.....deep breaths......one..two...three.....And out.
Awful game of football. But it's a point. And for now I'll take that. Better than getting beat. Better than getting sucker punched in the last minute. Better (I think ) that many of us could have wished for.

The trick now is to beat Norwich City. No nonsense.....no mistakes.
I might have been ok with the draw tonight. I won't be over enamoured with a draw at Norwich. Don Carlo needs to find a way to beat them.

Surely tonight (awful as it was) must act as a little confidence boost to our players.
We held the (seemingly)champions elect. We have halted their party for now. Other teams might manage to do the same. Up The Toffees.......
