Match Thread Everton 1-1 West Ham United 29th September 20:00

Hopefully Rohl is the type of player I think that team needs, someone to vary the attack with a bit of pace through the middle.

Exactly. Let him work his magic.

 

[Parker]

You get booked for winning the ball with your foot centimeters above the ground nowadays, it seems!

Nah Everton got an advantage from it mate, thats why its a foul and a booking.

Every. Single. Game.

….it was why I was so against the Grealish signing, wide players who stand their opponent up before going past but he has been terrific for us.

Grealish type is fine with a speedster overlapping full-back because he has 2 men marking him all the time.

KDH is doing it a lot for Grealish, issue is there’s nothing on the right hand side.

Yes it's pretty obvious he doesn't trust more than about 15 players and to be honest I don't blame him. It's not like there's anybody who isn't playing who I feel would improve the team. The only option might be to play 3 centre halves and then play Patterson and Mykolenko as wing backs but I'm not sure if that would make things better or worse.

Not really sure I agree. I’ve seen McNeil and Alcaraz have plenty of good games for Everton and I know they didn’t cover themselves in glory the other night but when you you know your the manager isn’t going to play you even if you have a good game I’m not completely surprised they didn’t look motivated.

It’s not necessarily a case of just bringing in players from the cold though. He can try getting NDiaye back on the left and Grealish in the number 10, or trying NDiaye as a false 9, or putting KDH back into midfield where he’s played all of his career.

The Beto for Barry / Barry for Beto sub depending on whichever one of them was unlucky enough to start the game has royally burned my piss already. It’s just incredibly lazy management and this might get away from Moyes very quickly if he can’t come up with some new solutions.

Don’t forget Paqueta trying dirty stuff on Mykolenko and then holding his face when he got shoved off and Myko getting the booking. Should have given both yellows or none at all.

Alcaraz doesn't look much cop and McNeill seems to have fallen off a cliff. I would trade McNeill for a right back in January

The irony of West Ham fans singing "You sold your soul, for this s hole" was not lost on me.

Massive shower them lot.

 

[windymiller]

That KDH booking is an absolute nonsense.

Buckle in for two teams against Everton every game folks because that's exactly what it is

We've got to stop with this conspiracy nonsense. The refs aren't against us specifically, they're just incompetent. There's so many bad decisions every weekend.

That’s just clear trolling. Not worth falling for, they don’t mean it.

 

[degsy]

Lucky we rested all those players or we might’ve lost.

I'd trade him for a packet of chewy

 

[donny]

Clearly moyes doesn't rate his bench why does he only give dibbling 10 minutes, and not bring O'Brian off who was getting roasted and looked dead on his feet at the 60 minute mark.

Unfortunately Jake looked dead on his feet after about 15 mins after he saw the left wingers pace he went to bits.Thank god they took him off.WHU played well and fully deserved a point.Would have liked to see Barry start when we had all the positive energy.Beto did nothing.Dibling has to start.

 

[Miked1e]

Play garner RB…. Drop KDH deeper and play Alcaraz or dibling.

Not difficult

I’d agree completely if our first 11 looked like a cohesive team that was right on the cusp of something but just need a little more time together but that’s not what I see at all. I think we’re absolutely clueless and we seem to already be a team that accepts its main outlets are set pieces and long throws.

We are far too pedestrian to be closed off to any player from outside the first 11 coming in and trying something different.

 

[RomanReigns]

Disgraceful result how have we drawn to these at home
