Match Thread Everton v West Ham. Wed 30th July. 23.30

[blueconverse]

McNeil offers nothing apart from the odd long range banger, play him central or not at all, like you said he simply doesn’t have the pace to play out wide

I don't think he can be central either
He's never developed his right foot so central he is a disaster there. If he's starting next year it's a huge failing

Cant believe I'm saying that we looked better against Bournmouth ( first half)...today is not as warm and three days later we cant string a pass...finally Patterson...watched him, looked slow, got bullied and sat on his arse instead of running back...seriously offers nothing.

 

[Oddson]

Woeful Half, Patterson & Timo are Championship standard, crying out for a RW & RB, need urgent recruitment

 

[Blue Alert]

I would recommend that, in the second half, we score more goals and successfully prevent West Ham from scoring themselves. But that’s just a layman’s perspective.

 

[Hinchcliffe's Corner]

Swap Grimesey for Krusty for a more accurate depiction.

True. Just amazing how we are so willing to accept someone's inadequacies because it's just what they are.

We’re discussing a very specific part of the game here mate, don’t wade in.

 

[Daytripper]

The away kit looks nice

Right think that's me bowing out at 2.30, cba sitting through 45 more minutes of watching pub team footy.

Ndiaye think armstrong done ok but prefer moyes put him in the middle.

 

[Milkman]

God that Travers punch is like a glitch on FIFA isn't it. How the hell has he done that?

True. Just amazing how we are so willing to accept someone's inadequacies because it's just what they are.

I messaged my mate on the last day of his contract saying it was a great day as I’d never see Keane in an Everton shirt again.

Well more fool me

 

[Chrismac]

McNeil playing wing back is getting in the way of Ndiaye. Just back it a flat 4 and move McNeil to the right or bring someone else on to play there. Ireogbunam and Harrison are none existent. Patterson and Keane shouldn’t be anywhere near our 23 man squad, absolute garbage the pair of them. I wanted Patterson to kick on, but he just hasn’t cut it. May as well not have Beto the pitch as we’re not giving him any service.

I can't remember Beto keeping possession once that half.. had a great chance but got his timing all wrong as he's still not sharp after being at the club 2 years.
I get that he scored 8 last season and can be a handful at times.. but we will always be relegation fodder if he's our 9 as play breaks up anytime it goes near him

We're rubbish, we were rubbish in the last game, no doubt we'll be rubbish in the next game - that's not an over reaction, that's what my poor eyes see. You're happy with this dross are you ?
