Match Thread Everton v Tottenham Hotspur - Preview, Match Report & MotM Poll

That angle for the second. Literally goes straight under pickfords foot.

 

[Fansince1988]

We've created plenty, just not clinical enough which is our problem this season.

Our problem this season has been Pickford (lately) and Silva having no defensive knowhow. We have got good defender, but that don't work if they are not set up right.

 

[Tin-Tin]

Completely over run in the middle

 

[Zatara]

1 shot on goal. Silva an attacking mastermind

And yet we had 2 goals.....one incorrectly ruled out.

 

[Kenshin]

This has been by far our worst performance in a while.
We are been torn to shreds.
Those sayin Gana does nothing need to watch that 45 again.
Spurs can do as they like

Watford was much worse , we just capsulated.

It's really concerning that there is no presence in the middle. No hope really of controlling play to the point where we have to play directly to the attack and bypass the midfield.

Still no real chemistry there, noone really can play together to be able to make those few passes into space. That's the biggest issue we have attacking, hopeful passes rather than telepathic , noone knows where each other will be in the middle. When chances break, we panic rather than have confidence.

Plus the chopping and changing team from the back upwards is costing us on these fronts.

Get big Nev back in goal.

He’d certainly fill it

 

[Big Fat Sam]

Spurs have another 2/3 goals in them here easily. Maybe we can steal 1 goal.

Going for 2:5 final score. Humiliating just before Christmas.

 

[MercuryBlue88]

Unfortunately, i think it might be wise to get a decent back up keeper in, i think pickfords has everything he needs to be a good keeper, but like Joe Hart is overconfident and undercomposed. Needs a break from the lime light.

 

[blue to the bone]

Yeah a defensive minded crab on. Positive.

Better then a player who doesn't defend or attack. If we stay this open they get 5 or 6..
Davies is a myth

 

[OnlyBlueWillDo]

You can all go doom and gloom but they have had a right leg up in this game off Pickford and the post.

They are a top side, we are still a work in progress and have given them a game causing them problems.

We are close to being a top side, few more signings and we'll get there under Silva.

 

[john jako]

Silva playing two in midfield against these. What’s all that about. First time I’ve questioned him all season.

 

[Fansince1988]

Only oumar can save us now

TBH he makes mistakes but rarely disappoints with effort. Get Skek on to he can't be any worse than Pickford has been today.

 

[Cmonefcsortitout!]

The whole team needs to get in their faces more. It seems like we are happy to close within a yard or two and then back off! Actually challenge and hunt in packs. Make them move the ball quickly, it is easy for them to play around us if we just press, but don't tackle!

 

[jerseytoffee]

Pickford us rubbish to many regular mistakes, what's the point of great saves when your making 2/3 mistakes a game, he's massively over rated.

I think he’s a good keeper, Judy’s needs to cut out the stupid decisions

 

[riddick]

We've created plenty, just not clinical enough which is our problem this season.

Again, read what you wrote them look at facts. 1shot on goal. How is that "created plenty"?
