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

Baines in for digne around the 65 minute please

Best half of football i've seen Delph have for us. Schneiderlin can't make a forward pass and still going hiding though.....

He played a decent forward pass to sidibe about 30 yards

 

[riddick]

You know I just noticed that most of Keans shots are directly at the keeper, including the goal. He'll learn but would be nice to start seeing better angled shots from him.

 

[gonetomorrow]

Hey we're in 8th place!

It's good that we are ahead. It's good that Kean took his chance. It's bad how wasteful we've been in the final third. Too much possession, too much pressure, and too much of the ball in dangerous positions to have created essentially 1 chance. Taking it is good, but on another day this is 0-0 despite our dominance of the play because we didn't create nearly enough good opportunities.

When you look at Liverpool, so often it is their front three working together and creating chances for themselves. Our forwards just don´t have that quality and link up play. What I´m getting at is you can´t just blame the midfield, it´s all aspects of the attackers that have to be improved.

We've played worse halves
Kean got his first goal

I can live with this

 

[Kris75]

chuffed to bits Moise is finally off the mark.

 

[Tony1985]

We’ve played well, need to learn to put teams to bed when we are dominant. Made up for Kean, he looks absolutely goosed tho.

We are crying out for a striker with a bit about them, 2-3 times Digne pulling it back to the penalty spot and both our strikers in the 6 yard box.

What's the story with Walcott did he take an early lunch?

 

[PDAWG]

How the hell do you get signal at Goodison?!

God knows, but I've been on Sky Bet all the way through as well

 

[gonetomorrow]

Haha he does! I was thinking he looked like the Verger from Dad's Army

I still hate him.

 

[PDAWG]

Absolutely shocking isn't it? Literally no justification for that either. He knows there is no drifting midfielder running at the edge of the box. Sigh, looks like he's another one we've ruined.

Hes had what, 4/5 good opportunities to put a decent cross in and most are behind everyone

Early bath he needs.

Throw in the fact that he can’t get the ball airborne at corners and we’ve got the whole package of nothing.

 

[Azza]

With Carlo I have 100% confidence that we're not going to concede.
