Match Thread Everton 0-1 Aston Villa - Wednesday 15th January 19:30

[Mashtray]

It wasn’t that we played particularly bad, we just lack quality all over the pitch.

Taking a goal against villa isn't the worst thing. Most sides would. We just can't score so taking any goal is already end of story. We trying to win games only on clean sheets

What have we done in training the last 6+ months???

Dyche has killed off any attempt of attacking play and confidence in this team.

I know players need to step up but there is no attacking play whatsoever.

Feel like we should have got a penalty. Either DCL or Lindstrøm.

I’m not usually one to throw too much at the idea that a referee favours one team or another, however many of the decisions he made (or didn’t make) tonight were laughable.

I thought the same. Very strange how it wasn't even looked at

 

[Timbucktoo]

That was another hard watch tonight. We seemed to have a bit more possession and were playing a bit more in their half, not sure if that was down to us being more forward going or that Villa were happy to have us with the ball going nowhere knowing that we`d make a mess of things and hand them an attacking opportunity. That mistake by branners for the goal was a horror show.

I was watching in the pub with no commentary. All my mates (none blues) just assumed a penalty would be given.

DCL pen debatable but 9 times out of 10 the Lindstrom one is given against us

They must be boss in training for Moyes to go with the same lineup as Dyche.

Could've just watched highlights of the last 6 months to see how impotent we are instead of a winnable home game.

 

[ElGato]

the goal is 2m50 high and 6m wide so not hitting the goal from 2 m is actually a circus act even if the ball didnt fall 100% on his footComparing his ability to yourself tells it all.

Screw your head back on son, having a mare

 

[Toffeelover]

Unfortunate

 

[Old Blue 2]

Let#s hope Brighton do us a solid tomorrow night at Ipswich...

DCL = Stuart Barlow

Deirdrie Barlow with no specs. Off you pop DCL.

 

[MaximusEvertonius]

Definitely a hard watch. I felt myself saying at times it could’ve easily been 3-0. I saw glimpses of what Moyes was trying to implement. I don’t agree with but understand why he started the team he did. Let’s hope he’s seen enough tonight to push hard for strikers during the window and have Jack Harrison kindly return his kit and that his next lineup is vastly different.

Probably the worst Everton team, offensively, I have ever seen.
We offer nothing going forward.
We need 2 or 3 quality attacking players, including a goalscorer, in Jan, otherwise it will be a very long season.
It's an absolute miracle we are not in the relegation places.
For all those saying that the players were better than Dyche's tactics.
I give you tonight's performance.
This squad is pants.
