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

[thebluebullet]

Been searching the record books and can't find the last time an Everton team conceded 2 or more in 5 successive league games, didn't even do it under Koeman's last days. Ancelotti is a busted flush.We will finish mid table again.

I really dont know what to say about that game,they were both poor sides,how that Bruno managed to commit at least 20 fouls after getting booked but stayed on the pitch is baffling,the 1st two goals we conceded were beyond soft,we start games needing to score 2 to have a chance of a point,there is just no intensity or pace when Richarlison isnt playing and the bench is so weak to be able to change a game dramatically

 

[Walter Ego]

Literally been two games he hasn't played well in.

The system simply doesn't work without Richarlison and that is on Brands for being negligent and not signing a quality forward, and on Carlo for sticking with it.

James has to be involved in our play and stuck out on the right he can't be if nobody is making runs into the area on the other side.

Without Richarlison this team falls apart. Simple as that.

Thanks Leon

But at the end of the window we needed at least one. We didn't go for anybody.


Brands has done this every window left the team short.

What signs? We’ve picked up one point out of 12. We haven’t looked like bouncing back once the minute things didn’t go our way.

I don’t want Ancelotti sacked but if we don’t get Europe this season then what is the point in him being here?

There’s still plenty of points on offer, there’s still 2 cups to play for, one of which we are 2 games away from a final

I just think it’s premature to write anything off at this point personally but I guess it’s each to their own opinion. Respect yours and wasn’t trying to be argumentative

I have to accept that I know very little about football, I thought I did, but, for the life of me I can’t see a player In Tosun. I know Carlo is never wrong and can’t be questioned, so.... it must be me imagining he is a one paced lackluster footballer.

 

[badger5187]

Biggest issue with the starting 11 was the total lack of pace in midfield. We just haven't got the pace to counter anyone and at times today DCL was left totally isolated.

 

[BlueStevie35]

Translated means, I think we got to accept this poo, lower midtable finishes in the hope it changes

Not what I said at all

Ancelotti is a busted flush is the most ‘fanboy’ short-termism thing I’ve read in a while.

Not everything has to draw wild conclusions. How about some considered critical debate?

 

[Rakti]

Allan doesn't really look that good.

 

[BrendanGOT]

This is not new information

It's not, but the last 3 games have served as a stark reminder

He’s just not a manager you bring in at this stage

He’s never been down in the trenches with a side, he’s a big time Charlie who usually leaves after 2 seasons

 

[JohnTheBlue]

Allan doesn't really look that good.

I think the Prem is far to quick for him

 

[Blue83]

When is the next international break to give us a reset like the last one ?

Just seen highlights looks like some terrible defending which is no surprise as we've been leaky all season bar Spurs game, we relied too much on scoring more than the other teams, when we can't score enough then we're screwed. Carlo really needs to change things up a little even though it's tough for him with the players available because it looks like the loser mentality is creeping its way back into the team

 

[Spadge Vernacular]

Has he ever had to coach and motivate a side without world class players

Yes

But regardless, get back to RAWK
