Match Thread AFC Bournemouth v Everton - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

We were dreadful today all over. Thought Coleman had one of his worst games in a while.

Need to get Bernard back on the pitch. I’d like to see him play richarlison through the middle with Iwobi and Bernard either side.

The home form is good but these away performances needs to improve. Year on year this doesn't seem to change and it's becoming tedious.......

The worst thing is going to be when the Home form stops been so good,as it wont last,but the away form usually does last

 

[Zeke]

Early days yet. No need to reach for the pitch forks yet...

Taking mine to be sharpened though.

The problem, sadly, is Seamus Coleman. I love him, and he can still play, but my god too many moves breaking down with his final ball at the moment. King is decent player and troubles most right backs, but he completely bossed Seamus today.

Sad but true.

We flatter to deceive far too often and today again was another example of many. No where top six IMO.

The club say a lot, some overhype a lot and when it comes down to it there really isn’t to justify any of it season after season. It depresses me sometimes when you see stuff like today , I couldn’t even bring myself to say anything to anyone watching it. Just sat in silence.

Another live televised game, another defeat. Nothing changes.
Possession 60%, load more passes, pass accuracy better than theirs beaten by two goals.
Cheers lads.

 

[Mikey O]

We always end up looking back at these games; Bournmouth and Villa and think to ourselves just one more win.....

 

[Khalekan]

Our two wins this season have been narrow victories against the two teams currently sat bottom of the table.

 

[BHvisitor]

All very true...but I’d love to see some proper progress as a club because it’s a hard cross to bear being an Everton fan.

Are you lot too loyal to certain players? Most of you very defensive this week about Michael Keane during and after the Kosovo match, praising past club performances. Sorry of this upsets anyone, but fans away from your club that I know put Keane in a very average bracket with Mee, Tarkowski, Mings. Solid in some home games, but very vulnerable to any forward with class and/or pace.

Point being, Moshiri needs to stop signing a plethora of players, instead buying a couple per window of true class.

Just an opinion.

 

[Mikey O]

At least the sun is shinning

The worst thing is going to be when the Home form stops been so good,as it wont last,but the away form usually does last

This is when we will have inevitable collapse that will last till February. I predict early November.

 

[Tennessee Blue Mike]

We know how to lose against weaker teams by two goals so far.

 

[charlie atkins]

Need watford to lose now or we are in the dogs do da

 

[TheVelourFog]

Central midfield is awful

when our play breaks down, as it inevitably does, there is always a spare opposition player sitting in the middle of the field who gets the ball

 

[OnlyBlueWillDo]

If Plan A fails then he reverts to, errr, plan A. We simply lack the adaptability, both in formation and mentality, to make suitable changes that will impact on games.

Nothing wrong with the game plan, we were well on top when they scored first, we were well on top at 1-1 and DCL had a glorious chance to make it 1-2 by rounding the keeper, 2mins later they score.

It doesn't matter what the manager does, when individual and collective defensive mistakes are as bad as they were today, you can not fail to lose, the ease in which we gifted them all 3 goals was as bad as defending gets.
