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

[Lob]

Moyes tactics simple and predictable. Waste as much time as possible, every man behind the ball and defend like your life depends on it, press them as much as possible and with a bit of luck we will either get a draw or smash and grab. So what do the blues on the field do, play right into their hands with slow sideways and backwards bollox. If we up the pace and get James on we will win this comfortably. Get it done blues.

When a match sounds poor on the radio, it must be uber poo on telly.

What’s all this ‘gay drug fuelled orgy’ stuff about?

 

[Jim Hopper]

I think we’ll see James for Bernard and Richy back out at left wing after 60mins.

 

[tadpole]

Total snooze fest. I was dropping off watching that rot.

3-3 nailed on

 

[JohnRoss23]

Missed the first half and just turned it on. Rest easy lads, I’m a massive good luck charm.

I'd watch the first half, you missed a lot that the score doesn't show

 

[Tennessee Blue Mike]

Need the first goal. But we have to shoot first.

 

[Curtis]

If Everton attended Hogwarts they'd be a hufflepuff. But seriously how is West Ham mustering more energy? Especially after Everton have had ample time to rest Cagey affair, pretty mediocre not horrendous though

 

[GrandOldTeam]

This game shows why we need a Khadira for when Allan isn't available.

It also shows why we need an Isco/any midfielder who can pass the ball forward/create from the middle of the park.

It also shows how much we need pace - preferably in the form of a winger who has some composure to give us a threat down the wing.

I still fancy us here though.

If we can get a goal the rest of the dominos will fall like a house of cards.

Checkmate

Buck up. The past four wins weren't characterized by beautiful play, either.

If they get a goal it’s game over.

Hopefully West Ham will tire second half and we will up the tempo

We have to up the tempo in the first place to tire them out mate, that was a very comfortable first half for West Ham.

Keep the faith, 2-0 blues

 

[JohnRoss23]

Might flip it over to Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory if they keep it up
