Match Thread Everton 1-1 Wolverhampton Wanderers 19:30 Weds 7th January 2026.

Can’t really understand how a lad who would have been on loan if KDH wasn’t injured is starting ahead of Rohl who was a player brought in ahead of him in the squad.

Because Rohl is clearly unfit after a lengthy injury. Additionally takes time bedding into a new league

Weeks like this send me from being appreciative of what Moyes has done here in the last year, to feeling like I just can't wait to be rid of him in summer.

Sticking with this back 4, not just after last week but so many shocking performances this season is genuinely unbelievable.

Will absolutely kill the crowd as well, everyone going to be annoyed from the first minute.

He always does this . Kills the crowd from the get go with senseless team selections. Im through with Moyes. Irrespective if we win tonight ( it shouldnt even be an ‘if’)….

 

[coollino]

Sorry but I think people are going a little OTT here lol

….i think they’re within their right to ask why he was purchased but the fact he was woeful on Sunday isn’t down to Moyes.

You don't think Moyes hindered Dibling's chances by how we set up such as pairing him with Jake and then having Dwight as our number 10?

 

[matty1878]

I did.

And I expect a heavy defeat for Wolves.

you got a book out with things to say.

support us dave and stop being a smart alec

Feeling around this game is all wrong for me. Fans salivating and champing at the bit to kick off if we haven’t scored after 20 minutes. McNeil and O’Brien the slowest right hand side that’s ever graced the sport. Not getting good vibes I’ve got to be completely honest.

 

[preposterousvelios]

….lost narrowly over the park, drew at United and slammed West Ham recently. Hopefully we are simply better than these but they have beaten us once this season and no games are easy at this level.

Let's have it right, losing here is the de facto worst result possible this season.

We're playing against the worst team in the league (and currently statistically the worst PL side in history) at home. No point managing expectations here, we should 100% be winning this game.

It’s like that scene at the beginning of Saving Private Ryan where they enter the beach.

I'd like to see Patterson given a go, he was fine last time out. JOB is so comfortable in central defence, it makes sense for him to play there.

 

[Curtis]

Keane could be at fault for all the goals today and that astro boy looking dork will be starting next week along as he's fit

 

[Charles Hawtrey]

Believe it or not, I really try not to slate Moyes on here, despite the fact I am not a fan. But that is a shameful selection, and it should not be forgotten even if we get something today.

It is the coward's choice. Keane was woeful, absolutely woeful in the last game, and barely fit, but we'll keep him in because he contributed so much last time. We will put the only CB that has some recovery pace at RB again even though he gives absolutely nothing goung forward.

And the biggest one of all is McNeil. I don't think I have ever seen an Everton player offer so little and yet get consistently picked as McNeil this season. He offers nothing going forward and kills us with his one-footedness and lack of pace to get forward or press. Dibling was poor last game hut McNeil was worse, but yeah, let’s drop the talented young lad. I also saw an article today basically saying that Moyes hasn't spoken to Dibling about what the issues were.

He is abysmal at managing young players.

On bolded @1 - Jack Harrison

Bolded @2 - One of Moyes big failings is that he thinks himself 'above' having to explain things. See all his press conferences, if he gets questioned he goes on sarcastic attack mode. Same with younger players, he doesn't feel its his job to tell them where they went wrong, its their job to do better.

 

[TyphooToffee]

I'd already gone 2-1 on the Chris Sutton's BBC prediction league so I'll stick with that. I usually forget half of my predictions so I've screenshotted all of them to remind myself

 

[dublinbluenose]

Is McNeil on the right or #10? I'm confused.

 

[PercyPlant]

The circumstances are that we've just had a horror show and Wolves are cratered at the bottom of the league.

If we cant EXPECT to win this one when can we expect to win a game?

Hmmm, at least that’s something, from expecting a cricket score against a team who have taken 3 much better teams than us all the way to now just expecting a win.

Nowt wrong with expecting a win, we all should expect a win and if we don’t the players and manager will take a deserved hammering. In fact, if it’s 1-0 but they’re clearly the better side they’ll deserve a bit of stick.

How is being positive about a big win not supporting us?
