Match Thread Barnsley vs. Everton - Wednesday 26th August - Capital One Cup Second Round - 19:45 KO

Oh the McGeady haters are out in full force tonight, the bashing is not needed. He's been one of our only bright spots this half.

I like him. I want him to do well but he always seems to disappoint. Think he belongs at a Sunderland type team.

 

[john jako]

Naismith offers nothing and McGeady still thinks he's maradona. Defensively as a unit were crap even with stones. It's not just the back four, the midfield and defence don't work well together at set pieces. Can't even fume, just crying

 

[Dithering Dougie]

He has you on ignore. @MoutsGoat Besic is playing isn't he?



Oh. He has me on ignore too.

Yeah he is, he's the guy who runs round like his arse is on fire and ends up kicking the slowest fireman.

 

[Scolari]

Inaki Bergara out! What the hell is this guy teaching in his training sessions!

 

[Abraders]

we have created nothing and struggling to defend and thats against a league 1 team who drew the other day with the then bottom of the league Bradford.

We have not created a single good chance via regular play, its either been crosses or a bit of luck, i don't want to blame martinez but its him and the players, the players for being awful and martinez for not creating a style/system that works for the team.

REMEMBER when BOB said '...We want to embrace the cup competitions and are going to use those to see how far we can go...'

And it was in direct reference to THIS cup competition too, that quote!?!?!?!

Hahaha, that was funny that...well done BOB.

 

[LocalNative]

No movement up front, final ball has been piss poor.

Isn't this the same old story though? The same problem that Martinez identified in April and is still yet to answer.

 

[Khalekan]

Anyone who expected Everton not to be Everton hasn't been a fan for very long...

I never learn, me.

Not only am I still optimistic we will win tonight I fancy us to beat Spurs on Saturday

Don't stop believing.....otherwise what's the point of it all

 

[griffla]

Are you for real, we are all aware he can beat his man, it's what he does after it, not to mention missing a sitter

McGeady missed an absolute sitter at 0-0 and he's been awful for 45 mins. Seriously had it with him, not Everton standard at all

 

[ijjysmith]

Imagine not playing Deulofeu in this.

 

[Stutheblue]

Absoutely pathetic defending for both goals (and pathetic goalkeeping for the second.

 

[Saint Domingo]

Everton are just a massive troll, this group of players love to troll the fans. Bigging up about how they're going to win the league cup then come out and do this. Got to laugh or you'd cry. Really it's absolutely disgraceful. Half these players will want out in the summer as well to go to a side who wins trophies. The lot of them can rot. Awful Everton side.

Stones mcgeady naismith off
Browning delboy barkley on.
