Match Thread Everton v Wolves - Preview, Match Report & MotM Poll

With this group of midfielders how you pick Gana as the 8 is mystifying

 

[Ozwell]

Fans not happy and can’t blame them. The football is truly awful. Same patterns of play over and over. Same slow and boring football. Left side is wide open but Mykolenko and McNeill have nothing in the locker. Not much to like about this team at all.

Yeah but we have barely supported the side. If we want to progress, for 90 mins we have to actually support the side. Look at the difference it made last year and how much more enjoyable a match was!!!

 

[Shibbywiggles]

There is one real positive I can say which is our pressing from the front has been effective and seen us win possession a couple times in very dangerous positions so clearly the coaching on this has been good.

In possession we’ve been cowardly and crap though.

 

[Vedder]

No intense with or without the ball, it seems maupay and O'Neil just get easily knocked off the ball.

 

[PhilM]

Changes need at happen after the half. Give Cannon a full half, can’t be worse than Maupay.

It doesn't appear as if anyone is warming up to come on.

 

[Muggins]

I don’t think clapping and waving is going to be improve players talent. Sounds desperate if people are hoping this.

 

[Bob Latchford]

Tbf to gordon he has made 2 good runs in the box and is unlucky not to have 2 goals. He is frustrating but also capable of making an opening.

 

[Sarnia Kevin]

A few half-time thoughts:
Considering it took a full 2 minutes for us to cross the half-way line and 6 minutes to get into the opposition penalty area, to get a goal inside the first 7 minutes is nothing short of miraculous.
The goal conceded can only be described as pathetic by the whole defense.
Notwithstanding he took the corner we scored from, the fact that McNeil can only use his right leg for standing on is very worrying for a professional footballer. He never uses it for even making a short pass.
Having the game on Amazon with no commentary is a godsend.
I could have been watching Warrington Town instead of this.

Has pace. Gets behind a defence.

That adds more than what we have

 

[Mutzo Nutzo]

Maupay and McNeill and I'll agree totally with you.

Oh Maupay can do one as well

 

[chrissyjack]

We need someone don’t we……

A target man . Only one way to find out if he’s up to it

 

[MrGrumpy]

And this is made worse by thinking that as soon as Townsend is fit enough to get on the pitch, he's about as good as any of our wide options. A 30+ year old lad signed on a freebie. Jesus wept, what a sorry state.

There no way you could spend 600 million and become worse

*Everton* hold my beer

 

[Sharpies volley]

What an absolute shambles. Player clean through on goal, can't even control the ball. What's the actual point of Mcneil if he was clean through with the keeper on the half way line he'd probably turn round and pass it backwards. FFS.

 

[Devanski]

Is that our first goal from a corner this season?

 

[PhilM]

Tbf to gordon he has made 2 good runs in the box and is unlucky not to have 2 goals. He is frustrating but also capable of making an opening.

I agree with the good run part, yet I wouldn't go as far as being unlucky. The first one was a heavy touch, which I can accept. He must finish the second.
