Sevilla/Mainz v Everton(Saturday 27 July 12:00/15:00)

[Steve Wigan]

Ah hey guys.

I didn’t watch these today because I was watching the new Lion King movie. It was ok but I do feel these new ‘LIVE ACTION’ but obviously not live action Disney movies are a bit pointless. But hey what do I know? I’ve only got a degree in movies haven’t I?!

Is Lewis Gibson basically Franco Baresi then but everyone else is pyar Kroldrup?

That Scar was a nobber too.

I'm fascinated by your degree in movies,more than anything.

It could be worse, we could be Real getting battered by our bitter city rivals Atletico

 

[Bluebonic]

If Everton were a record, it would probably be this one.

Love Beck, Love that song, Love Everton, the analogy works for me

 

[Death]

If this wasn't called a competition or tournament I swear to you we would have won the two games. 100%.

It like Everton games thinking about it and being on topic.

 

[orly]

Were we crap then? lol

First half against Sevilla we were ok, but the rest was awful. The Mainz game was grim viewing.

Probably have a couple around January.

I think Steve, like me, was expecting you to tell how and where you got your degree in movies: or did you just mean you were an avid movie fan?

Oh no. I did it at an actual university.

Never read too much into preseason games. A good preseason doesn't automatically turn into a good season, nor vice versa.

We're not even having a bad pre-season per se. What we had available from a first choice XI today was narrowly beaten by a very good side, but it took a penalty to do so. Then our youngsters, supplemented by the likes of Schneids & Mirallas are beaten by a German premier outfit. Earlier we had beaten Monaco and drawn two other games after dominating play. Our only really poor performance was away to Wigan.

We all know what the shortfalls in the squad are, and we are trying to overcome them if you believe what the management team are saying. All the rumours would certainly point to this.

Our lack of creativity is concerning, especially the fact that Iceland is so off the pace, but there is still 2 weeks before the season starts and hopefully the new players and the return of Richy will sort this out. Luckily we have a reasonable start to the season to get up to speed. And don't forget up until that second game today we have looked very sound defensively throughout pre-season. The complete reverse of last year.

Don't get me wrong, it would be great to be knocking 3 or 4 in every game, but wouldn't it be better to save the best form until the league actually started.

 

[Barnfred 55]

Fair comment.

I was at the home stand today and I highly doubt that.
