Match Thread Olympique Lyonnaise v Everton

[Deckard2049]

We have no attack whatsoever. I'm assuming the plan was to get to half time level and then change it in the second half.

Have you ever known a team to make as many changes at half time as we have this season? Changing things at half time on rare occasions used to be the sign of an intelligent manager who realised he’d made a mistake and rectified the issue. When you’re changing every game it’s a definitive indicator the manager doesn’t know what his best team is and the personnel available don’t really fit together to form a coherent tactical system. We’re absolute garbage.

Unsworth is tactically inept.

Worst audition for the job he could have done.

WTF

It's 0-0 away at a team that have won their last 4 games.

Let me be the 5 millionth person to say; we should have bought a striker.

Do we not even have an u14 we could throw on or something tho.........

We need to win the game. He is absolutely clueless.

I honestly dont recall the last time we went in 0-0 at the break, so theres that.

We have but he's playing left wing atm

Lyon don’t even look like they are trying to me..

 

[maccavennie]

We've not been good at the back at all imo.

We're lucky to not be 2 nil down.

Spot on, static time and time again, not aware of surroundings or runners and it's just basic stuff that carves us open. No excuse for giving away the amount of piss easy chances we do.

I'm trying by God I'm trying to take positives from that 1st half and all I've come up with is somehow we have a clean sheet Still

 

[gonetomorrow]

I'd like to see Mirallas on up front.

In a must win game.

We dont look like we can even nick a goal.

 

[Pabbers]

How many we took over?

 

[kenada_blue]

1. Sigurdsson isn’t a target man
2. We should have bought Depay
3. We need 2 quality strikers
4. It would be sound if we had said strikers
5. Need a quality centre half
6. We have 6 midfielders on the pitch and the ball bypasses said midfielders with ease
7. I’m sick of Everton being aids
8. I’m quietly optimistic that we will sneak a set piece goal and win 0-1

Why not add another flop to the collection

He didn’t flag straight away.

The guy making that decision who was 2 yards away didn't have a flag, he'd have communicated it to the ref and lino and then the flag by the lino goes up.

 

[Huyton Layne]

90 minutes without conceding! Would be nice if it was one game but small victories.

Depay has looked largely tosh in both games for me.
