That's the problem I have with him... It technically makes sense and we'll probably keep the clean sheet here, which is the most important thing now, but in the longer term it sends the message to the squad that you don't have faith in them offensively and we need to cling on to leads.

It's why he's not a winner; instead he's a survivor.

Moyesesque.......

First he wanted Brexit, next Sam won't play oumar??


Make of that what you will

...clean sheet would be most welcome.

I wanted to see Niasse too but it was a good sensible sub by Sam tbh. 2 - 0 up is worth protecting and its good to strengthen the defence and get a look at Keane and try to get some confidence back in him. He has plenty of time to have a good look at the rest of the players such as Niasse as we go forward etc. COYB's !!!

Pickford must have been a horse in a previous life, with these MASSIVE HOOFS

Boom boom!!

Well Lookman has passed the ball poorly on offence, but hes done a good job helping on defence.

For a team who only just kept a clean sheet a few days ago I welcome a manager trying to keep one at 2-0.

When we win today, our season looks completely different in 4 days!

Gana man marking Mooy so that we don't get any decent delivery from distance is also wise.

 

[BigBlueConk]

We have stopped many crosses coming into the box today, makes a helluva difference

 

[tsubaki]

GOT praising Everton manager Sam Allardyce for bringing a CB on at 2-0 instead of Niasse against Huddersfield at home

they'd have sectioned you for suggesting this would have happened six months ago

Does he still want that economic stupidity?

Early days with a squad that needs confidence boosts especially with the derby coming up.

We'll see what happens later in the season and what he does in games when we dominate or need a win.

I agree, but I'm talking long term.

Touch has been a bit heavy. Kinda want to see him get the ball in space and just take off. There's space for sure out there.

If he wins the game isn't he technically a winner?
