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

[DualityNSNO]

Dele will sit deeper tho, helping win possession

"Win" - he doesn't press and doesn't tackle, so more or less keep, not win.

 

[Shibbywiggles]

We’re winning the 50:50s!

Been a while!

 

[blue to the bone]

It hasn't been brilliant. But the effort is spot on
We lead and got a bit of luck . So far so good

 

[atypicalusername]

Mykolenko having his best game in blue I’d say

Agree, really stepped up his level of performance so far

 

[Davidoff]

Delph been very effective. Good positional awareness

 

[Nymzee]

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

He always does. He's a good player.

 

[DualityNSNO]

I'd feel a lot better about our survival prospects if I knew that Delph would stay fit until the end of the season.

Currently yeah, but still needs replacing.

 

[ForeverBlue92]

We are going to suffer when Delph and Allan reach the hour mark

We need a 2nd to calm things down and give us some breathing space.

 

[Shibbywiggles]

Clean sheet please blues, please

 

[Billy Dean]

We did go in ahead at HT at Burnley too. But encouraging so far.

 

[MikeH72]

Must take DCL off right now.

 

[overkill]

Never thought I'd see DCL off and Rondon on as a positive change, but Frank should make that change at half time, DCL just isn't occupying the United defence.

 

[matty1878]

they do a few passes and get in we need to try retain the ball more

 

[blu87554]

Myko is a beast! well played, good defending. Very good.

 

[sdk]

We've got a goal and a clean sheet at the half.

Please please please please please.
