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

[croatian blues]

I don’t see how we expected anything too different, we made a couple of good signings but we never bought better players than we already have. Possibly Kean is an upgrade but it will take time with him.
Our teams, formation and subs etc are so predictable every week.

Your last sentence is all about manager. I think last two transfer windows were pretty good, but as you said se are to predictable and I don't think it's because of players and their quality.

Lets go out with real attacking intent and put these to the sword (or blade)

This manager is just like the last one, never considers any of the under 23s, even on the bench, if I was a young player I would not pick EFC to learn my trade from because I would never get a game or even as a bench warmer.

 

[PhilRegan]

We’ve played 5 games lad. Bit over the top that.

We've lost or drawn games we need to win though for the best of the rest award. We are nowhere near top 6 material so for 7th we still need to beat the likes of bottom Villa, bottom half Bournemouth and a crap Palace. 1 point from those three will haunt us later on. So its 8th again.

 

[RomanReigns]

Why are people obsessed with the notion that the only way a team can improve is if you sign top end players

If klopp can get Henderson to perform like a prime intesta and wijnaldum like a prime xavi then I think the least we can expect from silva is to get him to motivate an already talented bunch of lads to win a few away games every now and again

We’ve played u23 players before, some haven’t taken their chance when given, massive step up going from U23 to Premier League unless you have truly talented players like at Arsenal, United, City and Chelsea

Playin injured players usually a bad idea.

We named a 23 player squad, that doesnt even include Davies and Kean, we can only name 19 each week, sticking a yoot on the bench for bench sake is pointless, if the young lads are good enough they will break through. The majority arent even close to being good enough, but the 1 and 2 that are will get their chance when its deserved.

 

[Groucho]

3-1 Everton, Jags OG hat trick.

 

[Ivo]

Playin injured players usually a bad idea.

Gomes still out? If so I'd play Sigurdsson next to delph and play Bernard or iwobi behind the striker
