Match Thread Burnley v Everton (Saturday 5 December 12:30)

[TheBigIguana]

It has to be said as frustrating as not winning was that 4-3-3 that we played for the last hour or so will beat a lot of teams. Stick with that or something close to it please Carlo.

Burnley are going down. They are the worst they’ve been for a long time. Makes that result even worse. The gulf in quality is obvious but still can’t get a result.

Fulham
West Brom
Sheffield United

Nailed on

He created the chance that should have us won the game in the 90th minute

He is good when their players are tired but he doesn’t help us enough defensively for me and that is an area we are struggling at the minute.

I don’t doubt his ability, I just think we could try and time it more effectively.

Our players are weird they sometimes do good things were you're like that was class well done then 2 minutes later they do stupid passes and look absolutely awful. So frustrating and inconsistent

 

[TheBigIguana]

We are just a boring midtable side sadly

Most years yes, but there are about 10 of those this year so someone is going to end up 5th or 6th.

Richy is going to leave next summer and can't same I blame him

 

[big nev lookalike]

Disappointing game again! Too sloppy,too slow in tempo and our poor crosses. I thought Pickford and Godfrey did well today but praising our defenders against Burnley is not what I wanted to do today.

It’s not a poor Everton result if Marty isn’t losing it at every single poster on here lol

He's way too positive even on a bad day

For me, Gomes looks less and less of a Prem player. Opposition just waltz past him and we can’t have that from a player that doesn’t score or assist.

He hasn’t been the same since the injury. You can see his quality at times but definitely not the same as before.

 

[UltraVires]

but he is absolute quality and the one player who can create a goal opportunity with one touch...at any time in the game

But his inability to track back can also expose our full backs which are clearly inexperienced as it is at the moment.

 

[GwladysBlue]

Ancelotti doesn’t have the tactical know how to manage a team like Everton. The past year is evidently clear.

There’s no point in him being here.

 

[ParisToffee]

This is complete madness as we go from top class play to under 8s in the space of 10 minutes, with stupid lazy errors and people not pulling their weight ;-( Its so frustrating to watch and you know the players don't give a care about the results ;-(

 

[marsh]

Most years yes, but there are about 10 of those this year so someone is going to end up 5th or 6th.

No chance it's going to be us

 

[KaiserEFC]

He's way too positive even on a bad day

He isn’t though he some how pushes into the realms of being so positive he’s actually negative. It’s some achievement lol

Going to cost us that going to be another long season. Be lucky to finish in a european place i expect 10th if lucky. Need more options have to be looking for another winger we need more depth at fb

Europe? we couldn't handle Europe
