Match Thread Olympique Lyonnaise v Everton

[ToffeeDan]

Not funny that Dan, the lad might not be a fan favourite, but he looked hurt.

You may have misread my comment - it was about the better quality of French Health Services not anything related to Cuco. The non-sequitor relating to the 6-0 hammering was referencing the fact that we had almost got to half time level. I don't know why you think I was being facetious and I'm sorry if you read it that way.

I think the commentator summed it up brilliantly on BT Sport last night:

"Everton have spent an awful lot of money to become awful!"

You just know he's had that throw away line saved for about 8 weeks and was buzzing when he got the chance to say it last night

Watched the game again before work in full and I want my mummy even more ...

Disgusting not one Everton player went over to see how Cuco was last night and Lyon players showed concern. Sums up the squad at present and the players should be shown the photo doing the rounds. This along with Williams laughing at Coleman when he got injured makes me embarrassed by the club at present.

Lads... A guy just found Matthew Mills passport outside of Tony's Bar at place Bellecour, opposite of the la poste... Please post, tweet and whatever else for Matt, Cheers!

Thats not true.

Both Pickford and Williams were in the area around him and appeared to check on him.

First one is not true, the laughing - what?

 

[wikofootball]

Pickford so devoid of confidence last night rife in efc at present let's hope it comes back asap

 

[granter79]

Thats not true.

Both Pickford and Williams were in the area around him and appeared to check on him.

He was down for 7 minutes and they may have wandered over where as the lyon players were all gathered around. Video on Twitter shows whole thing .

 

[granter79]

See below

Williams the same for Seamus, laughing and smiling and not even once was he over to see how he was. Says it all about that fella. embarrassing

as for last night watched it again and Lyon players more concerned for him than our whole team. Cant dress it up any other way

 

[McMagic]

It's a bloody shame if that's the case. Though I'm sure I did see Pickford in the area, but he may well have just finished his arabesque and
axel jumps.

i tought tactic looked like it was working. keeping a clean sleet, getting them frustrated, then going more attack minded, looking the more likely team to score.. but as always, then we let in a stupid goal and it all falls apart..

 

[Furey1878]

Let's be honest lads, Lyon's first goal was cruel as anything but that's just it for us atm.

The worrying thing was that pretty much as soon as that goal went in, heads dropped, again, and we looked more and more vulnerable.
