In fairness Newcastle looked average in that first half against us. It is difficult to find the balance. It is interesting comparing us with Leeds who are a similar level but have a different approach. We try to set a solid foundation and nick a win if a chance presents itself. Leeds go for the throat. The upshot for us is we will nick a few low scoring draws away from home that Leeds won’t. The downside is we won’t win as many games. We are not capable of a result like the one they had at Anfield because we are not brave enough. In terms of staying in the division I suspect ours is probably the better approach as they are open to taking a few hammerings that can lead you into a lengthy run a defeats and a bad goal difference. They are certainly a more exciting watch though

Massive debates about Orta and his acquisitions. I was at Anfield we were lucky,and same against Bournemouth we could have lost both games. We are relying on Liam Cooper in defence,who couldn't get a game under Gary Monk. It drives us bonkers .Why we aren't spending money?,Like most fans outside top 6,we realise massive investment just to stand still and avoid relegation is the basic requirement, covid,the economy etc are slowly eating away at football finance and even the biggest clubs are looking at outside investment. Watching Leeds last 2 games is no good for your heart,but makes up for the previous shocking 8.
 
If we don't go down this season I do fear it'll be like this for the next handful of years. Too much dross in the squad, still the same useless members in the board who continue to make the same mistakes. Unless they're gone we don't improve, and we're not an attractive business for mega rich investors to buy.

If ever we were involved in a 6-pointer it's the game at Bournemouth at the weekend. Looking at the other matches there's a chance we could jump to 11th with a win. Too many of the teams around us are on the up, and Southampton might get a new-manager bounce, so a loss against Bournemouth, although not a complete disaster, is the last thing we want. Taking the WC break sitting in 11th or 12th, with Wolves at Goodison on Boxing Day, is what we want.

Winning at Bournemouth? Sure. They will score at least 2. So Everton needs to score 3 goals to win. LOL.

How many goals did free-scoring Fulham score against us? Bournemouth are not as potent as Fulham.

They do have goals in them. Scored 3 at Fulham the other week. West Ham away was the only game they've looked pretty tootless so that's the template and Coady and Tarks shouldl be o.k v Kieffer Moore.

Billing in their midfield needs to be watched though, they've pushed him forward as number 10 and he's already on 5 goals so back to the promise of his Huddersfield days.

When you think how much more confident Iwobi has become he really should be chipping in with more goals or at least what Billing does.
 

By making all these changes Lampard is more or less accepting we are deep in the relegation mess and is worried about burning a player out with ONE game left until the holiday, its pathetic
