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

[cronullasharks]

Lots of ball watching going on, no runners being tracked. What happened to the allan and doucoure that played against spurs

 

[Toffee-nerd]

We’re conceding two a game and have conceded two fro headers right in the middle of the box. Michael Keane is not a good defender, never has been.

Personally think it doesnt matter who your centre backs are if you give quality players time to pick crosses you are going to concede. For me hes low down the list when we have pointy point mcpointerson starting and a full back who gives an attacker all day to pop a ball in.

 

[Azza]

hahaha even Ossie is calling out SIgurdsson for pointing!

Bernard has been our best player...

And that's supposed to be a positive?

 

[Cool_Blue]

Next goal is massive. If it’s us, we can win it. If it’s to united it’s game over.

Aye, easily our best attacking outlet today. All our problems are defensive and it looks like Holgate just isn't ready

 

[Milkman]

This will finish, at best, 2-2.

 

[Sassy Colombian]

We were doing good even responded well after first. But I a spawny goal and it’s killed confidence

Yep. Hopefully their confidence comes back for the second half. We need a better game than the shaky last 20 minutes.

 

[TheBigIguana]

We were already exposed by aforementioned gaping holes.

Neither goal has had anything to do with the left side of our team. You can try to blame Sigurdsson all you want but Allan isn't covering well in the center, Doucoure is being played around and Coleman isn't stopping crosses coming in. Those are all on those players, not Gylfi, even if Gylfi hasn't really done anything.

 

[Frenk]

Why throw Holgate straight in against these??

These were supposed to be there for the taking

 

[joebocop]

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

Bernard has been our best player this game. He's done his job today.

Watching Sigurdsson on that first goal. I'm utterly baffled.

 

[Darth Toffeeman]

No excuses, that was absolutely pathetic. Disgusting, shameful half of football

 

[Smodger]

We still have around 4 players there that should be no where near this team.

Off to wash the car, cleanest car on my street for the past 3 weeks !!
