Match Thread Everton v Manchester United. 1st Jan. 2018. 17.30

[banno]

Pickford, Vlasic, Holgate, Kenny. Gana are the only players I would keep as defos. Rooney, Siggy for experience. Wish Barkley was staying but he is not. Lookman needs a non defensive hug the line role. The rest can jog on really. We need much more flair players who can actually give and go/ keep possession. Too many grafters of poor technical ability.

2 brilliant finishes and they are far better than us.

This is what it boils down to.

 

[Professor Toffee]

We're not getting relegated for god sake! The kneejerk is ridiculous.

Pogba ran the show tonight. We have Schneiderlin and cloggers.

fixed that
Schneiderlin and other cloggers

 

[chrissyjack]

We used to be better, been a very long time since we were good.

I do have a long memory, tbf

 

[mawders]

the sum of our ambition this season is to avoid the relegation battle so we can then take stock in the summer. It's sad, but true. We'll probably beat the teams around us/below us at home, won't win much away, and will lose to all teams in the top 6/7. That's Everton and it's Koeman's fault.

The team is the worst I've seen in years, roll on May. [Poor language removed] it all

 

[blue to the bone]

Thing is though United were crap then and there for the taking.

They had players way better then anything we have..

 

[Dario Terracotta]

That have the ability to score goals like that, we(Rooney v West Ham,Siguurdsonn v Swansea aside)do not unfortunately.

 

[Mikey_Fitzgerald]

They're better than us

Simple as

Losing to Bournemouth annoyed me more

We at least had a proper go at United today for periods and Allardyce picked a pretty attacking line up

West Brom on the 20th is our cup final now

We just have to beat them. Lose that and we're back in the myre

 

[longers]

Did we have a shot on target ?

 

[Tel001]

That was probably the best I have seen us play in the last 4 matches.. trouble is , we still get can't get a shot on target

 

[Deleted member 28206]

You have added an extra one.there...for effect?

I’m sick and tired of seeing spineless performance week in week out

 

[Efcjake]

We're not getting relegated for god sake! The kneejerk is ridiculous.

Pogba ran the show tonight. We have Schneiderlin and cloggers.

Right on time.

 

[BlueLee]

Poor that, McCarthy kicking everyone on the pitch and no real shots again!

 

[Professor Toffee]

Our throw ins are always shocking...but Holgate's takes the cake

There's cake now?

 

[roydo]

Got quite encouraging when we turned up for 15 or 20 minutes in the 2nd half, but a far superior team beat us.
