Match Thread Everton v Norwich City - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[Efcjake]

Has Rondon had a single productive touch in any game?

I don't think he's managed to keep hold of the ball after his first touch yet.

 

[GoldenToffee]

Need to get the ball to Gray a lot more.

 

[MikeH72]

This is where our inability to just control periods of games can hurt us. When nothing is happening, we need to just be able to get a foot on the ball and play at our tempo.

We get it, we shouldn’t have sold James.

 

[Alanbileysfeathercut]

We have had a terrible disease infecting the Everton team for a number of years now. Lethargitis is a terrible malady. Woah, when will this blight be gone from our club?

Christmas..

 

[Tel001]

Has Rondon had a single productive touch in any game?

I’m sure he has at some point in his career .. not here tho

 

[TimHowardsBeardJuice]

The players need to get them going.

We havent really got started here

Would like to see us step on the throat and hang three on a weak opponent, put them a way before the hallf. Pad the GD a bit, you know?

 

[Zatara]

Gray should be left wing.

Iwobi and Rondon should be in the bin.

 

[BlueToff]

Sleep walking. But sleep walking with a lead is better than the alternative I guess.

Until we have a midfielder or play with a style that has some control, then we'll see a lot of this.

We went intense and energetic for 35 mins. But the tanks were emptied and that's when you need that quality on the pitch to control things.

We actually haven't got a single person in our squad - even when fully fit - capable of it though

 

[Death]

4 goals
3 assists

From Townsend. I'd of been happy if he racked up them numbers over the whole season.

James who?

 

[Frenk]

I don't think he's managed to keep hold of the ball after his first touch yet.

He’s off for a half-time pie now.

 

[blueconverse]

Gray is boss. Just pass to him please

 

[TheBigIguana]

I hope the possession boys are enjoying this nothingness. We have to play the ball forward when we win it. Too many balls won in midfield that go straight backward. That isn't what we're good at.

 

[Bluerover]

Hopefully RB's HT talk puts rockets where they need to go

 

[DanEFC92]

These are utter wank. Should be putting them to the sword.

 

[Paul Rideout]

take Iwobi & Rondon off and put Gordon & Simms/Dobbin on. at least the crowd might get more engaged. I really can't see how they could do a whole lot worse
