Honestly dont know if its still zonal or not, since we stopped conceding stopped paying attention to it. They rarely disect plays where a player just cleanly heads away.

As Silva said, if zonal marking is done right it works, hes obviously finally drilled it into them, all the top sides play this way so at least he's finally got them up to the task
I've never doubted that it can work, just whether this Everton side can make it work.

Defending much better. If it wasn't for that freak Spurs result we would be in the top 5 defences.

Set one up so say we will lose every game next season.. we will win them all then sur!Just have a look at the prediction threads to see how that is untrue!

In the last one going around I posted we would get 5 points till the end of the season. This was before the Cardiff game. I'm doing my bit.
Yeah and that all it is is fancy coach speak for not getting pulled out of position, aka, this is your space/position/zone now defend it, dont let the forward drag you out of position and leave a gap
We used to call it decent defending

Yeah amazing how fortunate Bernard and Digne were being so often in exactly the right place at the right time
....it’s not as much about systems as it is about footballers, constant practice and desire to defend.
Great credit must also go to the guys working their socks off to protect our defence, which is just about every player ahead of the defenders. Three different CB combinations in 3 games so Silva has started to get his message across, and ironically all four recent CBs have been slated on GOT at some time this season.
