Match Thread Everton 0-0 Newcastle - Saturday 5th October - 17:30

[Davideeyore]

Has the tw @ been sacked yet?

 

[larbert toffee]

Palace didn't get a penalty earlier today because ''the foul didn't affect the play' or words to that effect. Whilst it was a clear foul in the great scheme of things, Newcastle had a shot way over the bar as Tarks committed the offence, same thing IMO.
Always falls the way of Top 6 /7/8 or whatever it is these days.

Looking at that pen again after the replay, the ref did go to the screen, it was a foul, but it made no difference to the game, their player curled a shot high side and handsome. No way was any player getting near to that, so why give a pen ? Just book Tarkowski.

 

[LucBesson]

Braindead from Tarkowski but almost worth it to see Gordon miss the penno. If we can nick a goal, we can win it. But once again, we're the reactive team feeding off scraps. Newcastle the only team looking to take control.

 

[Eggs]

I think it’s a bit weird that Young is marking Burn on corners and set pieces, he seems physically overmatched

…I don’t think he’s marking him, it’s zonal marking so he should be picked up when he runs into another defenders zone (I think).

 

[Dharma]

Harrison best player so far

 

[matty1878]

Tim has excellent defensive stats so far this year and can actually pass the ball forward as well. Gana should be firmly behind him in the pecking order now.

don’t agree but agree!

 

[Tommy Chong]

Yes.

Yes.

It's too much to hope for.

you greedy man

One can dream lads... One can dream.

If anyone needs a remainder why Gordon is a massive tit:

Cut of Gordon’s new motor ffs, the Clair Balding looking meff.
Must have a tiny winkie.

 

[matty1878]

Can see Anthony Gordon scoring in the second half.

​

clearly

 

[Davideeyore]

Some innovative subs at HT and we can sneak a 1-0 win?

Is that too much to hope for, lads?!?

It's what I'm banking on.

I'm not sure about the "innovative subs" though. Just make changes you

 

[Blue Roo]

McNeil to the right.
Tim for Harrison.
Gana for Doucs

 

[Dublin blue 75]

It's like they've never played together. Same old crap. There is no anticipation, no movement to exploit space, no effort. I feel like I post this every match now. What is the point of the Dyche fitness regime if the players don't turn that fitness into pressing out of possession and running into space/showing for the ball during the match. Get Dyche out. He has shown us what he's capable of, and it's garbage.

He along with his coaching staff are being exposed for the has beens they are. If we escape with a point today, it is a miracle.

And no consequence of anything they have drilled into these players.

 

[Brett Angell Delight]

Regarding the penalty it was fairly similar to the one Richarlison didn't get v Brentford just before Branthwaithe was sent off. Var came out that time saying it wasn't given as Richarlison had his arm around the defender

I’m sure anyone on either side of the argument can come up with loads of examples given/not given rightly or wrongly. Fact is, Tarkowski threw him to the ground, after not really being tussled or provoked all that much. Tried to act the hard man and almost cost his team dearly. Appalling decision making and a pen all day long IMO.

Dyche will be telling them to fuccking grind out a result here, and will also tell Michael Keane not to fucck anything up.
