Match Thread Everton v Liverpool - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[everton fan number one]

There's clearly a few at less than 100% today. James included ( jetlag?).

We could be ahead though. Thought we were screwed at 2 minutes.

 

[everton1953]

Dreadful display, totally outplayed by a far better team. Our midfield was terrible, all of them, giving the ball away and totally overrun. We have survived to half time. The Liverpool biased commentary is a disgrace. Why can't we pass a ball to a Blue player. Only half time but so far a typical no show against our rivals.

Of course it was going to be like this.

 

[ToffeeTim]

Giving them far far too much respect. Gomes has been appalling and needs hooked

 

[sageyefc]

Forgot bernards on the bench, get him on for Gomes

 

[samcdavies94]

Not a chance Allan is fully fit. Maybe Gomes too, but he always has games like that. Maybe get Sig on who was rested midweek. We've been rubbish but we're still in it and a real threat from crosses into the box.

 

[dannyboy]

Geez gomes has been ordinary. Frustrating how often he gives possession away

Ordinary? Absolutely woeful.

 

[blue to the bone]

Said before the game id be happy with a draw. Now it would be an excellent result.

 

[heatmeiser]

1-1 against one of the best teams in the world who are juiced up to their eyeballs isn't so bad, chin up.

And people are wetting themselves saying how bad we are and we have no midfield.

We're playing the best side in the world rn. Funnily enough we're not in complete control all the time. Carlo will sort it.

 

[TGW89]

F Gomes off, go 4-4-2, play direct like we did v Chelsea.

 

[Dunc's elbow]

Worst we have played all season

Red5hite hoo-doo, again.

 

[GwladysBlue]

Don’t think I’m going to survive through this game.

 

[Gwladysover]

Btw has Van Dyke been fouled.....

Really? No-one mentioned it.

 

[Bakayoko Ono]

Don't think we can get any worse. 4 players on the bench that offer decent options for those having an off day. Carlo's got this.

 

[Toffe3m4n]

On balance, they're more likely to win this than us - we have a few out there clearly gassed, notably Allan and Richarlison.

I don't get why Allan should be gassed though.. no international games/travel and he's our engine..
