Match Thread Everton v Leicester (Sunday 9 April, 16.00)

[The binman chronicles]

Defence is 'sorted out' I heard.

2nd goal sums our season up really, Pennington caught out through inexperience and Robles not good enough......

I honestly can't believe how much people whine about our defenders. Williams is fine for a short term option and we will upgrade in the summer. People thought Coleman was "past it" too

Exactly this. If we want to win games we need to have exp players as cover. Massive diff when Coleman was playing. Williams is the best CB for this club this season.

Will definiately buy a first choice keeper this summer. Robles is ok as no.2.

Q - Could Robles really have kept that out anyway? I mean it balloons straight into the top left and the arc of the ball is barley reachable at any point. I think reading that from the second it'd kicked to be right on the left post (the only point he could caught/punched) is unlikely. Freak.

Robles has been improving all season and has been excellent at times - time for a bit of support?

Agree that's it's shocking from Joel to concede.

Still think it's very poor from Pennington. Should be a lesson.

Well yeh, hopefully he learns.

It's his sixth premier league appearance, so I'm sure he will.

i wasn't even in doubt when we were 2-1 down tbh

Defenders and goalkeeper in the summer please, Moshiri.

He will still get games as no.2 but I will prefer to buy a "first choice" keeper and Robles as competition.

 

[ToffeeTim]

No idea how this will finish

Wrong position in goal . Was to near by the near post . Nearer to the far post he can the ball easily. No need to have a wall if he wants to cover the near post himself

 

[RFUS]

Seeing as the goal rush started in the first half, rather than the second like vs Bournemouth, I'm not expecting it to continue. I'd be very surprised if Koeman doesn't give them a bollocking for that defensive display.

 

[gaino92]

Robles is absolute dog excrement

 

[blue61]

Putting all in depth analysis aside, great game like.

 

[Niapper]

We're going to sit deep now
