Match Thread Everton v Manchester United - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[tommye]

Bernard and Slugurdsson start and we're crap.
No coincidence

 

[TheBigIguana]

Because he ends up having to push into the massive gaping holes that Sigurdsson leaves by doing... well, nothing really.

No he doesn't have to he is choosing to and it is leaving us exposed

 

[Peter The Dog]

allan is a red card waiting to happen. he needs taking off.

 

[Tin-Tin]

Get Mina on, play Holgate and Allan DM and let Doucoure press further up with Bernard and James.

Throw Gyfi off the roof. I honestly hope his picks up a little injury that keeps him out for a few weeks.

 

[DanEFC92]

Holgate and Allin have been shocking. Need a goal early doors and play with a bit more intensity

Think Allan has been poor for a while

 

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

Gylfi starts three games and three games we are going to lose coincidence? I think not

Starting him is like having a player sent off.

 

[ProZ]

We are going to fall down the trap door.

 

[ForeverEverton]

If this stays like this we will be 5th 2 points off Utd in 11th and just 3 points off 14th and everyone else in the league has 1 or 2 games in hand on us...!

 

[NilSatisOptimum]

Fffs, start learning some snide Everton, rather despatching special envoys to hug Son and such like, when an opponent fouls go down and scream like every kin opponent does to us , it's not kin 1920s, soft [Poor language removed].

 

[MACCA75]

Would be nice if we ever tracked a runner or didn’t let people stand between our lines

 

[Sharpies volley]

We're getting beat in midfield because Doucoure doesn't have much, Sigurdsson has nothing and the one decent player in Allan is being used in a role that isn't his best.

This is correct. We're getting destroyed in midfield. Siggurdson is offering nothing as usual and Allen is being dragged all over the place. I thought Pickford could have come for the cross that led to the 2nd. The ball was clipped into the 6 yard box, not much pace on it and in the air for along time. Surely he's got to come for it.

 

[longers]

We haven’t won a match we’ve been losing at half time in for something like 40 matches now isn’t it ?

 

[CahillsCornerFlag]

Bernard scores and Gylfi doesn’t even pretend to celebrate going ahead against United. He just doesn’t give a monkeys.

 

[BirkenheadBlue]

As much as I love Holgate, bringing him straight in like this is.... questionable

 

[Saint Domingo]

Bernard and Slugurdsson start and we're crap.
No coincidence

we play two players who can run as fast as others walk and we wonder why we’re chasing shadows.
