Match Thread Notts Forest 0-2 Everton. Tue Dec 30th. 7.30 pm

[dublinbluenose]

Barry has been up and down, did really well to start the move off for the goal but has been awful in places.

Tbf, he is completely isolated, Rohl is like a plastic bag blowing around the middle of the park. McNeil has been poor with distribution apart from a sexual pass for the goal.

Garner and the 2 centre half's have been fantastic. Myko is struggling at times but doing OK. Patterson started like a car crash but has settled, a decent next half could turn his carrer around, maybe not at Everton though.

Dibling is ok in possession but doesn't really know how to play as a cover, getting caught in no-mans land.

Not heard any poverty chants. Yet

they are horrid mate

please get a second everton pleaseee

We're 12th and they're 17th.

I'll take that as my guide to this game.

Basic outlook. So you'd expect us to lose against the top 11?

I think Barry is getting a rather harsh doing on here. He started well and to be honest apart from a poor decision when we broke he's had nothing and I mean nothing to live off....

Stick with him lads..... I feel it in my waters he will come good

None of our forwards have had any forward work to do in the last 25 minutes of the half. Even Thierno was at Left Back at times. Unsurprising with the people missing.

Ha ha, that's quite the mixture of players!

 

[MACCA75]

We make poor decisions on more or less every break and people still think it’s the players

Why don’t you go into coaching mate?

it’s like people are being blind we have 5/7 out

A depleted Everton squad winning against a full strength Forest, away, is potentially hilarious, gotta say

They’ve spent millions, took the biscuit out of PSR and are still shocking.

This essentially is our carling cup round two lineup

 

[allen]

Showing what a very very limited coach Dyche is. Dire stuff from a team packed with very good players

It won’t change second half, either.

It’ll be more of the same: pumping in endless crosses, irrespective of how effective they are.

The most Plan A manager I’ve ever seen.

 

[Clarky cat]

Needs a monumental effort in concentration in this half. COYB!
I love Elliot Anderson but this version of him has been “Dyched”. I wouldn’t swap him for Garner who has been superior yet again up until now.

 

[Bwana]

Van Gerwen vs Anderson starting. Who cares?

 

[Benicetoourboys]

What company! Truly we are the School of Science.

Did you go the the School of Sarcasm by any chance?

I can’t see Graham getting on but this match is made for Callum Bates if we’re still in there fighting at 70 mins . Track there changes and use him to disrupt their play . He’ll run his heart out , likely get booked but will do a job here

 

[Charles Hawtrey]

Key is that central defensive 4 playing well, Garner, Iroegbunam, O’Brien and Tarkowski. Terrific goal from Garner getting that strike off with the ball a little behind.

Main concern is the defensive right side, the winger has Patterson on toast and Dibling is a poor ball watcher (it is a very important part of a wingers game to track runners these days).

Feel like we need another goal here but decent so far.

2 streams both down so missed the half but....Dibling does seem to fail to track his man - at the weekend I kept shouting at the screen "stay with him! stay with him!"
