Match Thread Everton v Leicester City - Preview, Match Report & MotM Poll

[Neiler]

Funny thing is we’ve played [Poor language removed], especially with some completely unforced errors but we’ve still arguably had the better chances in the game. I’m confident we’ll win if we knock off some of the woeful passing decisions

I don’t think we’ve had the best chances at all mate.

There's a big difference when keanes mistakes nearly always led to a goal.

So you didn't see tarkowski give it away and them break on us 5 on 3? Or tarkowski leaving it and daka having a free one on one shot on goal. He's just getting lucky the other team aren't scoring. There's been multiple other occasions he's gifted other teams chances this season. Southampton away comes to mind and he gave it away and they should have gone 2-1 just before we did.

Leicester know if Everton pull one back they'll buckle and start to panic, it's happened all season.

Everton need to press the defence, Amartey especially is prone to mistakes, as is the GK who is not good at all.

 

[atypicalusername]

Coady was very sloppy for the goal, should have put his boot through a clearance.

When we are getting hit by wave after wave without protection from the midfield these mistakes can be forced. Gutted for him and gutted we conceded.

 

[DanB90]

Just when I thought it couldn’t get any worse. I’ve just had to watch one of them awful adverts with Kevin Bacon in.

 

[zebedee]

God we are poo! After 20 minutes obvs playing through gana was getting snuffed out why play 45 minutes of it.

 

[Blues Harp]

8Wonder why Coleman is playing ag

Not much from the wingers. Swap sides please.

ain?

McNeil does well and can't play a forward pass because he's on his weak foot

 

[FOXINPEACE]

We're always worse in the second half if that's any comfort. Especially if we're leading

 

[Blueclouds]

No one is moving forward with the ball, always passing backwards.

 

[GoldenToffee]

team setup so wrong, defence too deep, midfield 3 so far from each other, gueye has too much to do, Onana invisible. I’m v worried

The relegation fight will be exciting though.

 

[ForeverEverton]

Leicester 53% possession
15 attempts at goal, 4 on target...

Everton

[diggerdestroyer]

We are not out of this yet !

Can see us coming back into this

That goal was simply unstoppable

Heads up Blues !

COYB ?

unstoppable? was it though? onana making an 80% effort for block it. throw John terry or a roy keane in there and no goal. they would have given 100 % and a block in there.

it was a great strike but should have been blocked

 

[Sharpies volley]

Comfortably second best. Maddison and tielmans head and shoulders over is. Our midfield three have been dire.

There's no shape to them. They're not playing as a unit. It's like watching kids. It's dreadful. They're either not carrying out the managers instructions or he hasn't got a clue, cause this is like watching an amateur team.

 

[St James]

If Lampard makes no changes, subs or tactics wise he may as well go home.

it'll be the same as the first half, dominated in the midfield.

He's not big on 'tactics' it's all about 'spirit'.
