Match Thread Everton v Man Utd - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[bluetack]

This is the worst United side since 1989,thats why we are winning.

 

[maccavennie]

Godfrey and Mykolenko class in defence

Mykolenko put a really good shift in then

 

[lungo]

I’d haul DCL off, Richy down the middle and Gray on the left

I would play without a nine and play Gray in the middle.

 

[Shibbywiggles]

Liked seeing Iwobi flatten Gordon on the celebration there
Iwobi becoming very likeable recently!

Nah keep Richy on the left and bring on Rondon who would hold it up better and help defensively on corners too

 

[fandjango]

Got to be happy with that first half considering the pressure we are under. Nothing fantastic but we look much more steady with Delph and Allan back in the team. DCL offering very little again though and needs swapping for Rondon. Big half coming up, i would be tempted to shut up shop and try and defend our lead and hit on the counter when the opportunities arise. All that matters is getting 3 points no matter what we have to do to get it and i don't care if its not pretty.

I cannot ever remember a time when shutting up shop at half time and defending worked out well for us … especially with our notoriously flakey defence
If what we are doing win the first half why stop doing it ?

 

[TyphooToffee]

You know how certain people evoke a look from an earlier era or time, is it me or does harry Maguire look like a medieval stable boy?

Quasimodo minus the hump.

 

[Blue Roo]

Biting me tongue with delight - Mylo and Iwobi playing well.

 

[Dwight K Schrute]

DCL needs to put himself about in the opening 15 or get hauled off.

Keane is absolutely terrifying. So, so poor.

 

[Melchizedek]

Is it me or is allan basically acting as the shadow captain? He seems like he's trying actually marshal people on the pitch

Seen him and Delph talking to others, giving directions, and trying to calm things.

 

[TyphooToffee]

Nah keep Richy on the left and bring on Rondon who would hold it up better and help defensively on corners too

Spot on

 

[Colonel Getafe]

make him play second half in a netball skirt.

that's not a punishment for him, it's a reward ?

 

[Thomasc]

This is the worst United side since 1989,thats why we are winning.

We beat them 4-0 2 or 3 seasons ago, that was a poor side

 

[sladen90]

Iwobi has put some new batteries in. He's absolutely everywhere.

 

[ProZ]

Iwobi is making me happy tbh, amazing workrate, he never stops
