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

[blueblood]

Well the useless cretins have shown they can’t do anything away so it’s made all of the remaining cup games, cup finals. So that’s;
United
Leicester
Chelsea
Brentford
Palace

How many wins/points can we get from them? I reckon we need minimum of 10. That probably means beating Leicester, Brentford and Palace and getting at least a point on Saturday/ v Chelsea.

Straws to clutch; Allan is back Saturday, Mina and VDB back next week so we should be able to play 4-3-3 for the remainder of our time in the Premier League!

If Richarlison’s decision making wasn’t horrendous, he’d be world class and wouldn’t be playing for us. He may have scored twice and put a foot in, but how many moves broke down because of him trying to be too casual or going the complete opposite and rushing his passes? Surely Delph would have been a better option than Holgate who was invisible for most of the game. DCL just isn’t interested. Kenny’s defensive awareness is none existent.

What’s Lampard to do though when your keeper slices an easy clearance then your defender bounces it off his own shins with no pressure.

We just haven’t got enough in us to see this out. It’s been inevitable for months. We’ll be in the lower league wilderness for absolute beards.

Just to add. Lampard can go now. And he can take that guy Clement with him. Also take Cole. All are just useless. Take a look at our results . They back up my claim. If nothing else or nobody else can be persuaded to take the job. Then give it to Ferguson and Baines. They showed a little passion and effort in that one match against Villa. They couldn't be any worse than Lampard.
Ok folks.....so the chances are that Lampards going nowhere. So expect no changes for the Man Utd game. And expect another defeat. I really really hope not. But this is Everton. This is Frank Lampard. How many matches does he need to set up a defence. To play a proper three in midfield. And to realise that DCL is now thinking about his move to Arsenal.
Fed up now saying that we need to change things. Think for the future of this club that Moshiri now needs to change things again. Lampard out...
Ps.......hope this post comes back.to bite me in the bum. And that we can beat Man utd. There will be no one more pleased than me. But I do think it's time for a firefighter. Before we run out of matches.
As I said a month back.........we are sleeping walking into the Championship. It's time to wake up.......

It’s too late for that now

This is far and away the worst defeat of the season.
I have no confidence in the players, the manager or the board.
It wasn’t just losing the match. God knows we’ve got used to that.
It was how we lost it.
The mistakes by players and manager when we had the chance to win it were soul destroying.
Too shocked to say anything else

 

[banno]

It's still in our hands just.
2 massive home games coming up before the derby.
We should have never lost tonight but yet we manage to do it again and again. Silly mistakes costing us. Our luck must change soon, surely we can't keep losing and not getting the run of the green. Let's believe and keep fighting and ? we succeed

Mate with a defence like ours it is not down to bad luck but bad players.
Godfrey, Kenny, Coleman and Holgate and keane are the reason but we could also say Richie for missing too many chances, DCL for being erm...nothing player and no goals from anywhere else on the pitch points to a bad team not bad luck. Error ridden team

We tend to show more up against the top teams than the bottom ones. One of our few wins was against Arsenal, we got a draw against Chelsea and should of had a draw against man city if not for referee ineptitude

I hope you’re right mate.

 

[Rollo Tomassi]

There is about a quarter of a season left

Yeah that's true and if we can get Mina back it will help the defence but we will have to win about four games minimum and we don't have any consistency. Look at the Newcastle game we win with 10 men scoring in the 99th minute and then proceed to lose the next 3 in a row.

Fixed it for you.

 

[PhilM]

More than enough chances to win it, but we simply can’t score goals and we’re nigh on guaranteed to concede.

 

[ChesterBlue]

9 with Calvert Lewin

I honestly don’t want to see him play for us again if that’s the effort he’s going to put in. Just put him in the reserves and punt him

 

[NorthernBlue]

Not sure what you are watching mate. Richy scored two penalties but don’t think he was up to much besides that to be honest. He’s been awful all season as has everyone else

Sorry that’s pure nonsense. He was involved in everything good we did tonight. He could only do so much when surrounded by wasters.

 

[DualityNSNO]

The RS will tear us a new one and we'll never hear the end of it.

That "0 shots on goal for Everton vs 30 for Liverpool" is gonna be replayed probably.

 

[Mark_EFC]

I’m absolutely done with DCL. This pansy doesn’t give a sh!t about his football career.

 

[Street end man]

I don't think Burnley "murdered us". Most of our wounds were totally self inflicted...being beaten by skill and technique is more acceptable than that tonight - and Burnley didn't show that. Very unfair to bracket young Branthwaite with those other wasters you name.. the few games the lad has played, hes given 100% and is a great prospect.

We were beaten by skill and technique though, they never fluked that, it's us who had the 2 pens.

Can’t wait for Saturday should be fun
