Match Thread Chelsea V Everton 25/10/17 League Cup

Williams makes the last six months of Distin's Everton career look like Franco Baresi.

The lad is finished, Play Holgate or Keane, hell even Funes Mori with one leg

Sideways, backways, lose it.

Sideways, backays, lose it.

over and over again.

If this was Koeman everyone would be getting pissed.

Absolutely. This is it in a nutshell. FSS. Minimal pressure and we just give it away. Granted, there's minimal movement in front of the midfielders and backline to give anyone a forward outlet, but come on. There isn't that much pressure.

 

[MikeH72]

I thought we looked solid and had energy.

New midfield three looked solid and we'll organised.

Just no real out ball and not getting the wingers involved enough.

Looked more solid that we have for two months.

Oh, and Williams is done.

3 of our back 4 are done mate.

 

[Daveypefc]

So how's this stay positive pact going, looks like I best come back another time

 

[Gladystweet]

Can only get better....can't it?

 

[sladen90]

Am I the only one thinking this is an improvement on recent weeks? Only small but I still think it's an improvement

 

[orly]

Well at least we’re 2 goals better off than a Konman XI by this stage.

This is their backup side

 

[miff]

Solid first half...unlucky to be losing but that's what happens when u switch off on a corner against probably Chelsea best header of the ball. Not sure Pickford has made a save yet...going forward we haven't created much. McCarty decent first half...could be a big player for us now he is fit. Young beni tiddy player but not contributing much offensively...

Huh?

 

[HughesyEFC]

What even is Ashley Williams

 

[maccavennie]

It's a one off game, we should just go for it big style, nothing to lose.

The worry I've got Lou is that was us attempting to go for it big time lol

The only positive from that is that we are only a goal down and they haven't looked anything special yet.

Ridiculous playing Rooney up top on his own though, he needs someone right next to him if thays where he's going to play him.

 

[TheBigIguana]

Nope Keane is even worse.

Mate?

 

[kenada_blue]

radio just said hes had good game lol,funny how everyone always seems things in different ways,not really to different,few players different,thought we might so far do a bit better,but still well in it

He's been good. You'd fear not having Gana or Morgan in there, but he's done well.

 

[Saint Domingo]

From Stones and Mori to Williams and Jags.

 

[GlosBlue]

Lol at everyone expecting some radical change in fortunes in the first game since Koeman left (away at Chelsea)!

 

[billybeeru]

You can remove the manager but you can’t fix players with limited skills and no passion. We have a lot of work to do.
