Match Thread Aston Villa v Everton - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[Caolam]

We have a threadbare squad and cannot cope with injuries. This will be a reoccurring problem this season.

 

[GRAEME1247]

Norwich have lost their five opening games. They lost 10 in a row at the end of the 2019/20 season when they were relegated.

Daniel Farke has become the first manager to lose 15 top flight games in a row.

Who do Norwich play next???

Shambles

3-0 is an embarrassment. I’m so p.issed with Rafffa not playing James. He’s class and he’d give us so much swagger that we’d be beating the likes of Villa within the first half

 

[lancs blue]

Shocked to see the line up. One sub short too. Rondon didn't offer anything. A few injuries and were scratching around

 

[Yorkie89]

Look at Keane for the 1st goal.

Oh I know mate but Mina was very slow to react as he approached the edge of the box to let fly

He’s so good and yet nobody wanted to take him off us in the summer.

Connect the dots…

A few pints and a few hours later and I have had time to reflect.......and I still hate Villa

 

[Super Kevin sheedy]

Safe journey home everyone

 

[BirkenheadBlue]

As someone who lives and breathes Everton, ive broken many a mobile, computer screen, mice, keyboard, ripped tops in anger at Everton letting me down.

If true, seek help.

Rodriguez apparently whinged that he does not quite feel up to the Villa game, according to Rafael's statement. I would not be surprised if the other players detest Rodriguez.

 

[Fansince1988]

Would be the same for Chelsea, rs etc.

yep Villa caught us on the right day.

 

[Lowste]

I'm not expecting them to all of a sudden become superheroes, far from it. But people shouldn't come out after comebacks against Southampton and Burnley and say Benitez has fixed the mentality of our players when it's obvious he hasn't.

I think we can all see he is trying to instil a strong work ethic and organising how we approach games

today was a proving point that this isn’t an easy fix, and will take time to resolve

the fragility in this team was once again laid bare for all to see

a good start to the season, but going to be difficult

Norwich are pointless, step up Everton ??‍
