Match Thread Southampton v Everton (Sunday 25 October 14:00)

[Daveysgingerlovechild]

Where's the Everton I hate you thread gone? Utterly let me down after my tub thumping call to prove that anachronistic wind bag Lawrenson wrong. Bah.

It was the inevitable bad game. The key is how we bounce back.

 

[MrGrumpy]

I think Carlo got it wrong today.

I agree, Gilfi a serious problem, does nothing

Bad day at the office; still top of the league; Geordies up next; let's move on.
COYB!!!

 

[Lelouch]

We need 2 formations.
One with Richarlison.
One without.
We cannot play the same way we did today against Newcastle next week no chance on earth.

"that is why we needed a rightback"

Yes, because Kenny is horrific. We should have offloaded Kenny in the summer in my opinion. We don't need 3 right backs and I never said we did.

So let's crunch those numbers again. 2 minus 1 (Kenny) = 1. Plus 1 new right back = 2.

You've got to the point made in the original post and it only took us an hour. Great effort.

All about credit in the bank, isn't it though. James didn't train all week and is clearly the best player at the club. How many times has Iwobi put in that put performance and been hauled off at HT?

I want players on the pitch not credit in the bank. He was piss poor, accept it

 

[spudmuncher]

Once James gets injured, we had no choice but to shut up shop and just not let the scoreline get embarrassing...

I get that ...but run around at least

Are you dreaming this, coz I ain't seeing it

Except you never said anything about getting rid of any of the current 2

I thought we were decent before the game but losing one game out of nine proves how truly horrendous this team is. We’ll be lucky not to drop all the way into League Two after this.

Why on earth do you think it wasn't a red. He trod on the guys ankle...its a red every time. A bit like Son on Gomes which should have been red as well. If Richie had been available its obvious James would not have played, he was never fit. Godfrey has a lot to learn. Iwobi just not good enough. Not worried about left back our new signing will do well. Keane kept his dignity when others were losing their heads.. Southampton played well and we didn't...get over it its a learning curve.We are still top of the league and in the mix. Right back is the bid problem next week...Maybe three at the back unless Holgate or Kenny are fit. Certainly Bernard or Gordon instead of Iwobi. Delph was quietly effective when he came on...good squad player. The game might have been different if Siggys bar hitter had gone in.

Well the laws of the game say its not a red...all the ex players are saying its not a red....anyone who runs behind a player trying to slow down with their hands up gets a yellow...

But you think its a red


Keane lost his head...he was galloping down the left, we lost the ball and guess what...another attack gifted to them.

 

[Blues Harp]

We had a week to be ready for the game with no midweek football.

And?

 

[Wat Tyler]

I don’t want to see Godfrey right back again please.

Totally agree although I suspect that Newcastle will not be as high energy as Soton were today.

I think we will be given slightly more time and that should help us in light of the fact we are missing a few of our better players
