Match Thread Everton v WBA, KO 15:00 Sat 20/1/18

[Toffe3m4n]

Schneiderlin and McCarthy are ruining this team. period

Horrendous DM pair, not a clue between them when it comes to bringing the ball forward.

I'm getting sick and tired of us playing two DM's and it not making a blind bit of difference when it comes to conceding goals. We're absolutely running the midfield here, as we were expected to... so why isn't Rooney playing???

Blips in our season is when we win a game

Those slating the atmosphere- I hope you are all at the ground and paying good money to watch this. I spend £££ on my season tickets and attending games every year. This is the worst I have seen them. No fkin clue what so ever, and the crowd can see this. There no point what so ever trying to cheer this team on until THEY prove they are capable of passing a football to each other. I don’t want to stand and chant to support this [Poor language removed]. It’s disgusting what’s going on out there - and at the club in general. So everyone slating the crowd that is not in attendance can [Poor language removed] right off.

On the game and players - you can put sigurdsson in the same taxi as martina away from this club asap. What a massive waste of money. He’s too slow at everything he does. He can strike a ball no doubt, but his overall play is terrible.

Edit: and those fkin throw ins!! I know it’s only a throw but FFS we can’t even get that right. Martina launching it up the line at vlasic head who is marked by 2 grocks and has no support. Fkin disgusting.

 

[Abraders]

I stand by what I said a long time ago. A striker was never the problem, signing Giroud would have changed nothing for example - we are just utterly dirge in every department.

We need a completely new central midfield.

 

[Yankfootball1]

Additionally no one in our back line seems to be able to play a pass on the deck to a teammate. It’s ridiculous at this level

 

[People75]

let's see how it goes with Rooney in second half.

We still have 45, and are only down with one.

It may be the most important half, in many year, of the club

[Big Fat Sam]

Fans seem to have accepted it now. I think we'll only wake up once we've gone down, and go down we will if we lose this today because it shouldn't get any easier than not losing to WBA at home. We are absolutely utterly pathetic.

 

[Bluerobins]

I think it's fair to say Allardyce is a worse manager than Koeman.

Agree but what’s worrying for me is nothing has changed with all 3 managers. We don’t create chances and are weak mentally. That includes Unsy. Nothing much has changed. Something deeply wrong

 

[Efcjake]

why is mccarthy even in this club, let alone starting?

utter crap

Part of the Everton family. We don't turn our back on our own.

 

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

Sugurdsson, Walcott and Tosun = £92m = 1 shot on target.

 

[Abraders]

Harsh on Keane, Bolasie, Jags that I think

Keane is dreadful

Disagree with the bold, but agree with the italics. McCarthy actually presses and tried to link up in attack. Schneiderlin just kinda sits there, and it bothers me a bit. I don't hate Sigurdsson or Rooney, but I hate the way they have been utilized and forced into almost every lineup. I think we also have some promising young talent that deserve a shot in Sigurdsson's position, but they are on the back-burner because of Sigurdsson and Rooney.

Can't really argue any of this. I'm more advocating that we play a central midfielder that will actually go forward and aid our attack. Sig can do that, but we never do anything but two DMs.

 

[Edo]

You guys clearly need a deep lying playmaker and a left back.Big Sam need to go too.

 

[Ron Burgundy]

1 shot - u can call it a good day..

We've been spoilt today.
