Arsenal 1-0 Everton.

Bilya, Heits, jags, baines, felli, howard - done well

Everyone else needs replacing.

A fairly unlikely bunch too, in the main. Agreed though. We need a creative centre mid (Pienaar back, better than Nev), and to just play someone different instead of Cahill in the attacking mid role. Or buy a striker.

 

[Brennan]

Tell you what, we seriously miss Rodwell alongside Fellaini.

 

[TX Bill]

No arguments here.

Is there anything more dispiriting than an Everton side set up, not to lose rather than to win?

Sigh.

Please Santa, can we have a creative winger/midfielder with pace, a good cross and the ability to put a through ball into the box. Modric and Messi would do for starters.

 

[DualityNSNO]

I agree.

This isn't the type of game for Cahill. Need someone who can do something with the ball at their feet.

Cahill is a useful member of the squad. But I would rather see Gueye or Barkley on for him.

Vellios seems to be doing good with the ball in his feet, also Gueye and Barkley.

Too bad it will never happen, as they do the unthinkable - shoot from more than 3ft out.
It also means that we will possibly play 2 strikers, which will never happen as it's a blasphemy against the wayz of the Moyez.

 

[when i score we riot]

There will be gnashing of teeth in the dressing room at half time.

And we will fume, biblically almost, if Cahill walks out for the 46th minute.

We are so slow going forward, we have had a few chances to go forward on the counter attack and are just so slow all the arsenal players get back behind the ball. Don't know if we will hold arsenal off all game tbh.

 

[The Equaliser]

Is Cahill actually on the pitch ?

Poor Arsenal finishing is the only reason we are not 0-4 down at HT.

It's been ages since we've had pace in the side. Scary considering how much Wenger emphasises pace and the high line of football we've been playing today. If they score it'll be a through ball or a ball over the top.

 

[BigBlueBalls]

Well, 45 minutes of suicide football down, another 45 minutes to go.
And can someone please, please wallop Walcott.
And whatever happened to the short pass inside for Saha to run onto and hit first time???

 

[Brennan]

I'm pretty sure Neville got sent off and nobody noticed.

 

[CahillsCornerFlag]

Ignoring the fact that Jack's been very good this year, its mainly just better to have someone who isnt Nev.

 

[fozzy]

i wonder if moyes is giving the hairdryer treatment out in the changing room or if he was happy with that 1st half?

i know what i reckon!

If we havent got all 11 back for corners, we bring the ball out very slowly and no one goes to help out the player with the ball.

Anyone with the ball by their feet either gets surrounded by opposition players or has to pass back.

Its awful. Players seems to be playing zonal percentages that actually helping each other out.

A pedestrian team, sent out by a pedestrian manager, watched by pedestrian fans some of which believe Neville, Hibbert, Osman etc are Everton class
