Match Thread Liverpool vs Everton - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[cocklord]

Positives are McNeil doing well and Tarky getting stuck in. Rest of them haven't really shone if we are honest. Still 45 to go and we can get back in this. UTFT!

McNeil doing well?

 

[hallamblue]

We've been terrible and they've been marginally less terrible. Just need more composure but we never manage it at the pit. Would have been hilarious if we'd scored from the corner though, kind of luck we don't quite get there.

 

[charlie atkins]

Time to see if he has plan b. I'm still hopeful

 

[brucemate]

Dyches tactics are terrible

Our Squad does not givw him choices

 

[Eggs]

…..thought we were poor & we nearly got away with it.

Not brave enough in possession or in players getting forward. Hard for me to see any way back into this, hopefully we can keep it at one goal with 10mins left & get lucky.

 

[Mashtray]

PEDS 1 Everton 0. The width of post away from being the other way round. So so unlucky.

The only way back into this is try to get on the end of another set piece. All is not lost (yet).

Agree. Technically his game plan was already delivering. That goal goes in and it's all according to plan

 

[Pittsburgh Footy]

Get Gray and Maupay on for Iwobi and Simms

He's gonna stay like this and then bring Gray on to try to score a worldie in the last 25 mins.

Iwobi shouldn't go off. He's the only halfway competent technical player we have

 

[bluelegend]

Wouldn't mind but they were there to get stuck into in the first five minutes and rattle them and we kept on standing off and allowing them to build momentum.

 

[HTCHERO]

They are better in pretty much every area of the pitch and with better players. It's just a reality check.

 

[john jako]

Nope, this time we aren’t playing balls through the middle for counters which created all our chances, instead we are hoofing the ball everytime to simms at every given opportunity.

That’s not the tactic though mate. It’s Liverpools set up and are players being pressured more into long balls. There not letting us go through the middle as our midfield is getting dominated.

 

[Thomasc]

Lot of contrasting opinions here.

We are in the main slow, ponderous, sloppy and have made it relatively easy for them.

WTF was Pickford actually doing the absolutely erratic weapon?

Simms looks so off the pace, like a lower league striker in a top flight game basically. Maybe the atmosphere has got to him, can only hope it’s that.

 

[Shevin Keedy]

that’s why we’re going down

Pack it in ffs. You were like this last season and what happened?

 

[eurosrees]

My word, DCL is really good isn't he - we just don't have a decent back up for him and it will cost us loads of points.

 

[Tony’s Carp]

It's only 1-0 ffs,some on here would think we 3 down.

And it was inches away from being the other way round. Got to remember that.

 

[LocalNative]

Our players are all slow. Doesn’t really work in the premier league. Gray should have played at least.

I’d have Gray, Maupay and Godfrey on at half time for Simms, McNeil and Mykolenko.
