Match Thread Everton 2-2 Liverpool. Wednesday February 12th . 7.30 pm

Moyes needs to make some aggressive/creative changes at half and Goodison needs to become a lions den.

 

[II McColl II]

Been alright.

Just another example of Doucoure having no basic ability with the ball costing us again, would be 1-0 still if he could just either run round a statue or pass round him instead of at him.

Worried about Gana though, red waiting to happen from the looks of it.

 

[mahermi1]

No excuses to swap Doucoure who has been poor again and has been booked for Alcaraz, do it Moysey.

 

[OneTrueLegend]

Well it started off great, but we are struggling now without Ndiaye and with 3 players on yellow cards, we are going to have to be careful in the 2nd half.
Can’t believe Diaz! How many CB’s can he push when they are jumping for the ball before he gets a booking?

 

[billybeeru]

Even with the yellow, it’s gonna be hard to pull off Gana based on the importance he has in his role. Doucoure on the other hand…

 

[GrandOldTeam]

Doucoure and Gana on bookings not at all ideal.

Tim for Gana and Alcaraz for Doucoure sooner rather than later.

 

[Mr PEN86]

Didn't realise how dirty the RS lot are. Wow.

 

[Kantareller]

Got very lucky at the end, poor by Pickford and lucky Tarks was tuned in

Looked offside anyway

 

[DualityNSNO]

Be amazed if we don't get a player sent off.

Wild card options is someone who’s not even on a booking getting a straight red for nothing and the situation not getting reviewed either

 

[jonnyg]

Alcaraz needs to come on sooner rather than later, can't hold onto the ball once Nidaye left
Doucoure and Gana both on yellows too.

 

[Efcjake]

Really well played by Branthwaite and Beto. I thought it was getting pulled back for offside for certain. What a striker we have here.

I am still raging at the complete lack of defending for their goal though. Everyone shut off.

 

[daza_1973]

They will be taking double

Get ready for their standard magical 45-70 min spurt of super human energy

 

[Daveysgingerlovechild]

Keep it tight.

Hopefully we can pinch a goal from a set piece.

Or something from Alcaraz sub.

With NDiaye going off, we've lost the ability to progress play/ball carrier. Harrison and Lindstrom waste of time.

They've got two full backs on a booking and we won't test them.

Fear we'll run out of legs.

Yes, i think that's why reserving pur subs as long as possible sensible. We'll need to freshen things and/or protect folk on bookings. I'm also worried about our incredible ability to pick up injuries.

 

[maccavennie]

Gana will have to come off he will be a liability on a yellow.
The Ndiaye injury has soured this though

Gueye is just a walking red card now and needs to come off. Doucoure his usual woeful self and then Harrison and Lindstrom haven't put a ball in the box in anger yet.

We need more from Garner, off the ball Lindstrom doing well, Beto doing his best. We've kept their front 3 relatively quiet but it's only a matter of time Oliver sends off one of our players over a silly yellow.

Get Alacaraz on and give them something to worry about

 

[GoldenToffee]

If Moyes doesn't get Doucoure off here I'll go as far as to say he, as manager, will cost us the game. Everybody knew he shouldn't have started and would let us down - and he did with an utterly brain-dead moment of football.
