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

[Frenk]

Look we’re city are with the money they have spent, like you say we have spent so much and are worse than before he gave us a cash injection.

I don’t see that as a good thing as far as Brands is concerned. That’s baffling.

 

[davids]

We’re making McGoldrick look like a world beater. We’re making Sheffield United look like a very good team.
Take Holgate off, go four at the back, a diamond in midfield with James at the point and just out play them.

The last four words is where the problem is

 

[atypicalusername]

Every team who has come to Goodison and got a result has basically outrun and outworked us.

Sometimes I feel we can be the architects of our own downfall sometimes. 45 minutes left. COYB!

 

[RomanReigns]

thor to save the day

 

[Rooney_Tunes]

Not as bad a performance as I feared pre-match. Considering our brave lionhearts are playing the bottom team (and hence had the pressure of win-expectation on them), I feel they are doing pretty well. Very easy team to be proud of

NSNO

Standards high much?

 

[Ring master]

At least Holgate is off and on is sig

 

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

Can't see us scoring so 4-0 is more likely.

Have faith mate, we couldn't be any worse than that first half....FFS, just seen Sigurdsson coming on.

 

[ToffeeDan]

Seriously why waste money on season tickets for this half-arsed stuff. When are we actually going to take a game to the opponents? When are we going to pass it forward, frighten opponents, make them defend for their lives?

Tell me how many games we've really played well in this season: I reckon 5 out of 36

Liverpool away
Spurs away (opener)
Chelsea and Arsenal (home)
Leeds (away)

But I would argue that in all those games the oppos were quite poor.

We didn't play well at West Ham or Arsenal - they were, largely, pish.

that really is it! Unless you're going to count taking apart a pish poor West Brom or Brighton at home.

 

[Parker]

I would've made that sub at the 30 minute mark. At least he's seen the obvious.

 

[diggerdestroyer]

Very very poor, again.... What does one of the highest paid managers in world football do with this squad during the week. I`m not seeing anything.

Build up play slow and sideways/backwards, too easy for Sheff to get their shape back. We have no idea how to break them down other than a couple of balls chipped in which our strikers can finish.

Out of ideas and on the beach, would not bothered to see the back of Richarlison, what does he offer now. Needs to go back wide left or get lost because it is impacting the side.

Why is CA going 3 at the back? These brain dead has beens arent bright enough to figure that out....

EMBARASSING.........

Richarlison spends half his time tracking back. He is a wide center forward.Then tries to get up the pitch. Tactics do him no favours. It's like asking holgate to concentrate on being in the attacking box and then complaining when he is fked when 30 seconds later he is sprinting back to defend in his own box. Carlos tactics do not work at home.

 

[Fansince1988]

We ok now Sigs is on lol

 

[Dunc's elbow]

Sig on.

 

[bluelegend]

And that hopefully is the end of Holgate’s Everton career.

 

[Runub]

In all seriousness whatever happens in this game, we could still win, it is quite alarming how bad Everton are. Depressing

 

[Goat]

The Iceberg!
