I mean I'll take the result given how the game went after we scored our second goal. I don't know if it came from Moyes or the players or a combination but this was what Moyes's teams used to do. Sit back (especially against the 'better' teams) and cede possession. How many games in Moyes's first spell when we would be one up or level and then cede the initiative and end up losing or drawing.
Obviously we have had a good run and drawing when you've been 2-0 up happens. We've had some good fortune in our recent run and I was never under the impression we would keep winning so many games, we aren't good enough. Just disappointing today as we were 2-0 up and the momentum in the game seemed to change.
I was watching the game and wondering what had changed. The players were still trying to press high up the pitch and were still putting in the effort and work. We just seemed to struggle to get any longer spells of possession of the ball where we could have slowed the play down. There also seemed a bit of a void of Everton players behind Beto. I guess it's just probably a psychological thing with the players to some extent. You're 2 goals up and you just mentally slack off a bit. You don't NEED to score to win the game. I posted earlier in the week about needing players in the future who have mentally got the ability to see what is happening on the pitch and not accept it and make a difference in changing it
