Match Thread Everton vs Bournemouth 3pm Saturday 4th Feb

I just don't understand why we couldn't pass so well like we are today against Stoke on Wednesday.

This new Everton though I like it, with no cups/europe in the way I can see us keeping this form for the rest of the season

How nonchalent was Lukaku's finish... Looked like he'd taken a touch when he should have hit it first time, but no....

Considering how little time he had too, that was lovely, instinctual

Hey @maccavennie perhaps you should miss the games more often if this is the result

what a boss finish that is. Thanks for posting these as well

It was windy as balls.

We're playing with the confidence of season 1 Martinez here. And I mean that as a compliment. Superb stuff.

No goal in the past 5 minutes. Useless Dutch beaut

I understand Davies being rested. He's 18 and we don't wanna over burden him like RS did with Owen. But not sure about having 3 DMs and 5 defenders at home. I know it has worked for us but creativity wise we need to come up with an alternate formation as well that isn't so defensive on paper.

I think RK view MS as more of a box to box as opposed to a true DM. I think we are playing more a 4-3-3 or 4-2-1-3

Edit: this was sitting in my queue pregame. A bit dated!

How good does Schneiderlin look?

 

[yakublue]

new signings look quality

 

[Saaby]

Barkley has been defensively great

Because stoke are a relatively decent side and are very resilient at home. Bournemouth are turgid

Go for the jugular and embarrass them, we never do that.

 

[Tigger]

Have we got 72 points yet?

 

[Martino Robertez]

Tyrone Mings

Yes..yes he does
