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

[nsno-chris]

If it was a case of the front line missing alot I`d agree, we dont create anything, like I said the whole of this season our average shots on target per 45 minutes is 1, 0 in two games this season.

We look far better in the 4-2-3-1 with Iwobi in the 10 we saw against Palace, we haven`t seen it since, if it was Rafael I`d swear he was trying to take us down!

Palace also played with literally 1 midfielder, which also helped us a lot

Did it take a bobble though? Need to see a replay.

Hes wearing a bobble that's about it

Everton must have the most unintelligent group of players ever assembled in the history of football

Too many lack initiative and have for some time.

 

[ForestBlue]

Doucore doesn't seem to actually bend his knees when he starts running as he just swings his legs for the first few strides

 

[nsno-chris]

I'm not even watching, just reading through this

It’s far more entertaining

 

[Furey1878]

Again, we've made chances we should have buried. Can we just slot a chance please!

 

[Neiler]

First half highlights here -

Man, I totally had that game.

Do they just decide on the day who is taking the set pieces

Is it turn to piece, whoever's nearest ? Thought Garner was supposed to be a deadball specialist..

 

[Aries]

Just put the kids on ffs. Mills and Cannon are high on confidence and deserve a chance, and I’d put the kid Smith on at left back just to erase Thierry Small from our record books. Yes, I’m petty.

 

[diggerdestroyer]

Boss to be let down by other set of 11 players. God bless them they are trying

the amount of times doucoure and davis have not taken the opportunity to turn and pass forward show me they are not trying at all

 

[Brett Angell Delight]

Got to love an Everton season.

September: We might finish mid-table!

October: At least we might have a good cup run

November: At least we might have a good FA Cup run

January: Concentrating on the relegation battle, aren’t we?!

 

[d34noj]

I’m going for Demarai Gray on at halftime

Good idea, at least the ball will travel forwards a bit before we lose it.

 

[captainvindaloo]

That was a painful watch. Shambolic.
More proof why a lot of these players should not be at the club.

 

[james2805]

Has second half not started yet? Just got home

 

[EFC_FRANCIS]

In all seriousness chaps if Lampard subbed himself on for Davies or Doucoure I don't think that would make us weaker. And he's 44 and has a diet solely consisting of chocolate eclairs
