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

[ForeverBlue92]

Has he played much this season, heard absolutely nothing from him?

Been in and out with a hamstring injury.

From what I've seen he's fast and a bag of tricks but end product isnt the greatest.

The pre Everton Bolasie kind of player who will probably latch onto Sidibe/Coleman and win a penalty for them with his pace.

Oh yeah if he’s going to do anything against anyone it’ll be us for sure

Think we will win but it wil be a grim slog

If we drop points in this alot of anger will be directed at Brands for not getting in obvious reinforcements.

You look at the RS signing that Japanese lad before the transfer window starts and think why can we never get these sorts of deals lined up.

Brands is clueless. Another waste of space who is stealing a living at the club.

Gordon isn’t a winger, I hope we don’t get conditioned to believe he is.

Gordon isn’t a winger, I hope we don’t get conditioned to believe he is.

What is he then?

Cos if hes a number 10 he needs to leave cos we no longer play 1.

They were really poor yesterday. A proper smash and grab job. It´ll doubtlessly be a grind because we haven´t beaten a team comfortably all year but it´s one I´d expect us to win.

Not for the first time this season. The football Gods have been with them on quite a few occasions where they've been totally outplayed but managed to get all 3 points. I only wish we'd had the resolve to do the same.

Gordon isn’t a winger, I hope we don’t get conditioned to believe he is.

Hes too young to have a definitive position. He shouldn't be shoe horned into any role yet. The manager will work out what's best for the lad.

 

[MikeH72]

Think he’ll be a striker long term. Same type of player as Richarlison.

I am of course completely guessing all of this.

I got some stick for saying I'm beginning to get frustrated with Brands last week.

This is exactly why. He's had months to prepare, there's no reason to go to deadline day given out vulnerability is obvious.

Europe was still attainable, but that boat has salled due to inaction yet again.

We are 4 points off European qualification, but sure, that ship has sailed.

Theres every reason to go to deadline day, thats the date most players are available.

 

[Dougie]

Will be a tough game especially if we have no Sigurdsson or Richarlison. They will sit deep and try to hit on the break and set pieces.

No Sigurdsson - eh
No Richy - yes, negative

 

[Dougie]

No Sigurdsson - eh
No Richy - yes, negative

Sigurdsson can at least pass a ball that is obvious. Are you saying not having Richy is negative or you saying I’m being negative?

Negative for us if Richy is out.

We don't miss Sigurdsson in his current state
