Do Everton need to sign a CB

[Joey66]

Is it me or has our defence got worse since we sold Heitinga? Just a thought but Heitinga was good enough to feel like competition but not quite good enough to get into the first team, and that might have been why Jags and Distin played well. Heitinga goes and maybe they feel their position is safe, start to subconsciously slack off a bit. Stones is good but we all know he's "for the future" so can't be enough competition to get the best out of our defence

Yes and the other three are antiques !lol

Whether we sign one or not, Stones has to start the next game for me.

 

[mawders]

Yes, we do.

Stones also should come it. That would mean dropping Distin, who has been better than Jags.....

 

[Carl Hankin]

we got beat by a team..who are prob gunna be the champions..and we kept attacking,start stones over jags..,give jags a kick up the ass...we do need more cover there tho ,coz alcaraz is [Poor language removed]

 

[sportbillyblue]

drop Distin because Jagielka is captain ? if so that's wrong.

[Newly signed CB] needs to start for me.

I'm beginning that Jags is beginning to pack in, far too slow, indecisive, elements of fear in his play yesterday (looked like he was bricking it in the tunnel before the match) if he doesn't improve quickly, how can the club move forward with him as captain and CB, he just aint been the same since world cup + we had our highest consecutive number of wins in Prem League history when Jags was injured last season and stones came in. Not denying that he's been excellent and gave his best in previous seasons but his performances in the last few games have been too dodgy.. Stones in... + Galloway in soon

I reckon it is just you Andy mate.

 

[Toffeelover]

We had a potential partner for Stones but we let him go for a paltry 1.5!!!

 

[Dozbik]

Haha ! You haven't a clue what he was on about have you !

No, I haven't.

 

[Mikey_Fitzgerald]

Probably one more of a decent standard wouldn't hurt, just to give the established two some competition

Hahahahahaha. No we didn't.

 

[Toffeelover]

Hahahahahaha. No we didn't.

Okay who and what did he go for?

I don't think Jags has been playing well but he was probably only really responsible for one of the goals yesterday. We were very unlucky with their 2nd (offside) and 3rd (deflection), the 4th was more down to Distin, 5th was a well worked goal but Jags wasn't at fault and the last was obviously Besic's fault.

The good thing is we won't come up against anyone else as clinical as the were yesterday. 6 goals from 8 shots is ridiculous. And we won't concede 2 deflected goals again hopefully either. They clearly have things to work on but the blame should really be shared.
