Match Thread Fleetwood Town v Everton, Wednesday 23rd September, 7.45pm

[BlueDraka]

We found our Gareth Bale.

That is who I have been thinking of. Think he can play any position on that left side. Looks an exceptional talent

Anyone know the last time Everton scored 5 goals in consecutive games? No?

It was 56 years ago

23rd Sept 1964 5-2 vs Valerengens
26th Sept 1964 5-3 vs Birmingham

Bernard, Iwobi been getting pelters here lately so good to see them step up.

Delph wasn't bad, wasn't amazing. If he's staying, good to get game time.

Glad Kean got his goal, again if he's staying, needs confidence.

As for the rest.. Richy outstanding again, Niels a superstar in waiting, Gordon continues to genuinely impress.

Pickford's clown shoes aside, a very creditable performance. Still some niggles though. Salford, Fleetwood, 10 man West Brom are all very well. Still, best we've looked for flippin' donkey's.

Now for a pancake.

I simply have to ask... how can these guys seriously pick Pickford as MotM ?

Mind boggles unless they’re Fleetwood fans.

Young lad was outstanding again, but gave my vote to Iwobi, had a dodgy opening but looked the part after. Good technical ability no doubt about that.

Ffs I was just using that stat as you posted this.

 

[Bob Latchford]

....best thing about Iwobi’s goal was him being in that position. I like to see that. He did fine tonight, lovely interchange with Richarlison for the 2nd. I prefer Iwobi when he gets into central positions.

He had a good game in all areas. Chased a lot of balls, provided, got on the end of chances. He looked a bit tired at the end but only to be expected, great to see.

 

[Zatara]

Any chance whatsoever that Niels can play RB?

Inverted right back ?

 

[BornBlue76]

Was tempted to go for Digne actually... he drove forward from defense.. covered Nkounkou all game in his runs and was excellent... but went for Iwobi for the assist and goal.. and involved for the 90 minutes.

Bernard probably was motm for the first half

 

[Chris O'Connor]

Vote for PIckford, he can win this.

 

[Zatara]

He was superb Zat that's why

If Bernard was superb then what was Nkounkou?

In a sarcastic way to showcase my anger towards his performance.
