Match Thread Everton v AFC Bournemouth - Preview, Match Report & MotM Poll

[TheBlueGibbon]

So which one of our players is going to make the individual mistake today?

Keane is probably due one.

 

[Rook]

It just seems like every pass we make is whipped in too fast so that everyone's 1st touch is Rom-esque.

 

[Frang]

playing quality togger like this gets you the season...

weve just been unlucky lads

if wed scored our chances wed be 4th lads

lads??

 

[Sharpattack]

A team with zero confidence

 

[polish]

Thank God I have some wine at my disposal.

 

[Tennessee Blue Mike]

Yet another sad game to watch so far.

 

[Efctrueblue]

Trying to play out from the back. No options except the bog-standard square ball. Any attempt at anything else and we lose it!! BORING!

 

[ForeverEverton]

Walcott for Sigurdson.

Push Bernard to CAM and Lookman to LM

 

[tsubaki]

This is rubbish so far. Lookman been the bright spark. But Gomes struggling and defence all over the place.

He is struggling because he is the only one permanently midfield - Gana keeps having to cover Digne and Lookman and Bernard are having to come inside to get the ball, its chaos as he has no idea who will be available until he gets his head up.

If we want to play like this, he has to go to three at the back (and one or two of them have to have a bit of pace; ie: Holgate or Galloway).

 

[Osamabindiesel]

We are not dealing well with the pressure at all

 

[Zezti]

Nice one ref.

 

[Mozza1987]

I mean that was like a wrestling move on him and gave nothing lol.

 

[Deulofeumygod]

Fed up with ref’s not giving blatant fouls on Rico

 

[Marius57]

Bernard keeps getting the ball in the middle and looking to go left (where he as the left forward should be.. Meaning Digne has to bomb on and then Gueye and Gomes required to cover. It’s not dignes fault.

 

[sheedys left foot]

More boos.

We're the Newcastle of the north west.

How? In that we have notions of grandeur but are really outdated and irrelevant?

Wouldn’t disagree there
