Match Thread Watford v Everton - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[banno]

Such miserable MF's on here. We are not reigning Champions or anything close.....we are relegation candidates but expecting to roll over any team

 

[eurosrees]

Mate we are t points ahead and they can catch us with a single win

We have a far superior GD so you can count that as another point is what I was getting at.

 

[Kaiser Soysauce]

oh and we can?

Lol. You're full of questions tonight

 

[Frenk]

We better beat Brentford or I’m going into hiding.

I think Brentford are going to give us real problems.

 

[steven]

Massive opportunity lost.

We are better off playing top sides, defending then countering, when we have to take the innititive, we’re useles.

Wouldst surprise me if it comes down to the last day and we have to beat Arsenal.

Lampard didn’t help us even try and take the initiative though - we were never doing it with that formation.

Iwobi should have been in midfield and arguably dele should have been on at 60 to give us something else.

Means there is pressure on the next two home games now against decent sides.

It goes back to what I said ages ago - this run in we have to make the most of every opportunity…anything can happen in one off games - sending offs/ bad var calls etc - say that happens in the next two home games and we lose both then we will be fuming at this game tonight where it was a golden opportunity to win.

Watford were just so bad, half a team missing , no fans there, and we mostly strolled around like a testimonial. Should have buried them - barely created a chance.

Lampard set them up to not lose mate. I get it, if not condone it, until we get a feel for the game. Not changing shape at HT, 60 mins at the latest is cowardly from the manager.

True, he did keep 5 at the back all game, they were there for the taking.
Still feel the players reverted to type and didn't fancy it.

If Leeds lose there next game we draw we are more or less safe as there goal difference is so bad. I’m still relying on Leeds do us a favour then us doing ourselves one.

nerves mate

We just drew and failed to score against Watford reserves mate. Complete bottle job.

 

[barneygumble]

2 weeks ago, everyone had written us off as we sat 5 points off safety.

Since then, we’ve got 4 points on the road, got out the relegation zone and have a game in hand on a side in there. Not to mention the huge GD swing.

2 huge home games upcoming. And I reckon now a win will do it.

 

[Bluestar]

That was a very tired performance. It just happens sometimes.

Given that our away results this season have been poor, getting a draw is ok.

I’m sure they will be up for the next game at home and a win will probably mean safety.

 

[Curtis]

i think everton have broke frank he's turning into allardyce playing for the draw probably drinks gravy daily too

 

[Lob]

For Christ’s sake stop panicking, we are 2 points above Leeds, with a game in hand and a superior GD. We have two home games coming up….we will be fine…..

Not panicking mate, just livid. Watford were absolutely woeful and we set up like we were playing City. It was a waste of a simple win and 2 points dropped imo.

 

[Frenk]

We have a far superior GD so you can count that as another point is what I was getting at.

Not really if they win and we don’t.

 

[Markydys]

Abysmal tonight. Half assed efforts across the team. No urgency and looks as though they think they're already safe.

Lampard should have changed it a lot earlier.

All against a side which has to be one of the worst in the last decade. Didn't even know Gosling was still going.

Big game Sunday now.
