We have a different definition of the word, sitter.

Doucoure missed a sitter and Tarkowski's header was an easier chance than the ones Dom missed.

And you absolutely can't blame him when he misses those 1 on 1s with such regularity.

Perhaps we have a different definition of a striker too

 

[DualityNSNO]

The no manager part probably helped them

Ah so that's the secret - we should've hired no one and kept playing ffs

I think the Doucoure and Tarks chances came at them too quickly or unexpected. The difference with DCL was one is a defender the other is a midfielder. A striker should be expected to do better but DCL doesn't

Tough watch that. We continue to create nothing from open play. Very worrying.

 

[Moomin]

No man.

Dyche is a genius.

Just ask @Moomin.

Never said he was a genius.

He is a stop gap manager while we are struggling.

I don’t think this is True, the Moyes and Martinez days were loads of fun looking back, Baines, Pienaar, Lukaku, heaven.

God what i would do for even a Mirallas these days.

Moyes did a great job but the football was turgid at times.

However under Dyche it is unrelentingly turgid.

 

[Moomin]

@Moomin are you going to let them get away with this?

People can be frustrated.

Just when people call them kopites for showing frustration is when we have to worry.

This Jesse March is Ted Lasso isn't he? Has he ever played a game of football in his life? It's actually funny watching and listening to his post match analysis

I thought he was a comedy act .

 

[Sheedy's right peg]

All 4 chances were sitters.

However DCL is a striker and his job is to score goals.

That's true but we could have Pele in his prime up front and he wouldn't score many with the service he'd get from our lot.

 

[Preki]

Having simmered down waiting 30 mins for a bus on reflection that was god awful. No shape or interplay whatsoever. How Young can start as a Winger in Dyches mind is beyond me.

 

[navidson]

Dobbin, Chermitti and Beto would be like Messi Suarez Neymar in the Championship mate.

We'd have to sell them to bring in Lee Trundle

I need to see the second DCL header again but it looked like the cross was a bit behind him. And that was the easier chance of the two.

 

[Rita_Poon]

Did anyone see that right footer cross from Harrison? I need reassurance it wasn't a moments dream. Was a quality cross. If it was real, it's taken something to alter for him to whip the ball in first time with the natural foot from that flank.

 

[BainesontoastNEW]

Whatever we've done to Jordan Ayew quite clearly resonates in his mind on a daily basis.

 

[Runub]

That was a classic Everton reverting to type in a must win game performance. So predictable
