Match Thread Carabao Cup: Bournemouth v Everton - Preview, Match Report & MotM Poll

[maccavennie]

Amazing that players like Holgate, Keane, Mina, Doucoure and Davies are playing for Everton still.

Fixed Macca

I only watched the first half but from that viewing, Patterson was easily MOTM.

Sadly he went a bit off in the second half

 

[Donegal blue]

My god ,how sad was that.

 

[marnie]

How do you decide to rest Coady and Tarkowski and Pickford when we've just got one more game left? Your 3 most vocal performers.

Are we that good that our best players need to be rested?

Our only attacking player (Iwobi) rested.

This after a half arsed lacklustre effort against Leicester.

Lampard has simply ramped up so much oressure on himself it's untrue.

Bad BAD management tonight.

This. 2 games in a week and 6 weeks off for most of them. Should have gone full strength. SHOCKING

"Come here Frank...."

 

[banno]

Went for Patterson regardless of his error. Was our standout player. Gave effort

 

[Davideeyore]

Nothing less than a 4-0 win for us on Saturday should be demanded to eradicate tonight’s pitiful excuse for football.

It's my experience down the years that when we make changes like tonight with a bigger game in mind at the weekend, that we end up losing the game at the weekend anyway.

It's like when a team you play against has players suspended and injured. And yet we still lose to them.

We've had rotten luck in the last couple of decades (yeah decades) I think we have a voodoo hex on us.

Why the heck did we need to see Keane Mina Holgate Doucoure Davies etc all play again. What the heck did that achieve tonight

Absolutely inexcusable

I'm almost embarrassed to support this club these days. What a pathetic club

 

[Gilbert..]

There is no enjoyment following this club. The football is 95% dross. Most of the players are salary thieves.
People on death row have have more enjoyment.

 

[Tramps_mate]

I don't see any reason why the strongest team wasn't played!!

Frank's just put a nail in his own coffin lid tonight..

 

[glory_daze]

Pretty sure bournemouth unfreeze junior stanislas just to score in games against us every season

Job done,they can put him back in the freezer now for 72 hours.

It's an absolute piss take mate and not acceptable. I'm not arsed when people say "they need to be fresh for Saturday".....they've got 3 days off after tonight so they should be fresh.

Absolutely sick of our management/teams chucking Cup games. 28 years of absolute [Poor language removed] and we're supposed to say tonight doesn't matter.....well I hope someone is willing to pay every Everton supporter who went tonight the £60-80 that shitshow would have cost.

They disgust me, absolutely disgust me.

 

[Davideeyore]

And to be realistic are we going to win on Saturday?!?! Now all those rested players, who a lot came off the bench and got spanked…will be in a terrible place mentally for Saturday

Exactly.

We shouldn't be p!ssing about with the team. Totally agree where does this leave us for Saturday?

Tells you he's as worried as the fans of relegation.

532, go on Frank, keep trolling the forum

He definitely trolled us. Terrible performance from everyone
