Match Thread Everton v Man.United Carabao Cup - Preview, Match Report & MotM Poll

[MACCA75]

It wasn’t Gylfi with that horrific pass at the end, it was Tosun

 

[MercuryBlue88]

Not surprised, united took full advantage of the lack of VAR and we just dont have the squad to compete. Would like to see Carlos comments after the match, hope he points the finger at the play acting, but regardless the tie always felt a step too far due to timing.

 

[Joey66]

Didn’t watch the game. Should Cavani been sent off?

Deffo....

 

[Sheedy's right knee.]

If you think Richarlison has been Evertons best player this season you haven't see any games at all.

But him going off gave them a psychological boost.

 

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

Didn’t watch the game. Should Cavani been sent off?

It was like Xhaka's the other week against Burnley mate.

 

[Lloydystark]

Awful refereeing on the Cavani call, changes the game

 

[T LEAFE]

Do you need a hug and a brew lid?

Maybe i just care a bit more

 

[UltraVires]

Cavani shouldn’t have been on the pitch but the better team won.

Our team just doesn’t have the depth that some of these more established teams do and that shows despite the fact that they have a manager who is poor.

We have so much deadwood to clear in this squad that it’s going to be a difficult year or two until they are all gone piece by piece.

Bernard - not up to anything like the standard.

Gomes - slow and poor in every area

Siggy - always seems a yard too late to reach the ball for me. The ball breaks loose and you think it’s his but he can never quite get there.

Tosun - you may as well bring that iPad on that DCL walked out with as while he can finish, he moves like Hes been put in cement

 

[Mikey_Fitzgerald]

Our mentality is fragile, brittle and cowardly

Another season and another failure, even with one of the most decorated coaches on the planet

It will never change

Doesn't matter how much we spend, what our stadium is like or who the manager is

We are Everton, destined to play second fiddle to the worst of humanity forevermore

Merry pissing Christmas

 

[grandjoeblue]

Funny how Richarlison has done nothing all year and yet we still can’t win without him on the field.

He was on the field? He was beyond awful. Worst player on the pitch.

 

[Davidoff]

A winning mentality was lacking from the start - a few more windows for Carlo to sort it out

 

[collymcd]

They werent any better just dirtier

In the first 30-40 they were much better. We matched them after that.

I think today is mainly about mentality. We have too many players who buckle under expectation.

 

[tsubaki]

Just the same old story when it comes to games that really matter...

Nothing in it second half but United should have been out of sight after the first half hour

We brought on Bernard, Davies and Tosun which just shows where we are as a squad currently. Disappointing.

Davies did actually improve on the player he replaced though, admittedly thats a really low bar to get over mind.

Bernard and Tosun are finished here though now, get rid in January.

 

[stretford blue]

We have absolutely no one who is able to come off the bench and change the game

 

[Lee Smith]

Bottled it but the Richy and Mina incident didn't help things, still, shouldn't be flapping on the ball like we did everytime in the first 30 minutes

What’s this about mate? Only caught the last 5 minutes
