Match Thread Everton v Sheffield Utd - Chat, Match Report & MotM Poll

[Bohemian Toffee]

Hes on £120k a week. If we could get £10mil+ for Doucoure it would get him off the books which would be a big deal.

McNeil, Chermiti & Dobbin could replace him.

Are you on the same stuff as the ref?

…well it’s a sign they might have a decent player or two but sadly it looks a very ordinary group.

It doesn’t really, they’re job is to be prepared for first team football

Unsworth won 2 leagues in 3 years, load of good that did

 

[Bilko]

Comfortable, but don't you know we need a 2nd

 

[Zatara]

He’s been good a while now mate, despite the ageism on here, Luton goal aside, top snide!

Are you including the forest game in this, we're they should of had 3 pens

Young needs to be let go. Hes a high risk player and today is the best game hes had all season...

...why? Because there is no threat from Sheff Utd.

 

[Walken]

Apparently DCL was booked for "adopting an aggressive attitude". Heaven forfend that a footballer should "adopt an aggressive attitude", where would that lead us lol

Booked for his emotional state, its an interesting one!

 

[PeregrineT]

Chermiti (or McNeil, and Dobbin out left?) in Doucoure's spot and we're laughing to the easiest win we've had in years.

I would indeed like to see Chermiti in Doucoures role of the second half. Easier match, and where he can play as a second striker... might be a good chance for him to shine.

I`d be gutted going in 1-0 down if I was Sheff Utd, the chances they have had, should have score 1 or 2 at least...

This is an "Everton That" type of day, the type of day when Sheff Utd get a late equaliser. For me we needed to go out attacking and finish the season well but we seem like we have no idea what to do in possession which is why Dyche can`t be our long term future, they`ve had the better chances on the break and should be at least level.

Haha Saudi.

I think they would pay it for a muslim player from the premier league.

Would be a great deal for us to get a 31 year old on big wages off the books also.

Anyone got any tips on how to quickly energise? I’m absolutely shattered today, probably over-tired.

 

[nsno-chris]

There’s a ton of space on the left wing, McNeil is coming inside and Young is staying back and there is an absolute acre of space

exploit it, please

Totally disagree.

Were using 2 totally finished full backs.

A DM being used box to box.

No right winger.

McNeil should be in Doucoures role who has been dreadful

Despite all that...with a better player than doucoure we'd have had a handful more shots on goal from good positions.

 

[Mercedes]

Be interesting to see if Onana comes on 2nd half

There's also no defensive mid to cover Doucoure's... role..., so maybe put an actual footballer there
