Match Thread Everton 2-3 AFC Bournemouth (Sat 31 Aug 3:00 PM)

[Toffe3m4n]

Need to make this pressure payoff - before they score with their fist attempt

The Everton Way

 

[Tullz]

Are we sure Dom is better than Beto? I mean really sure?

Beto > DCL

 

[irishgoose]

he isnt even better than a park bank in front of goal

I heard he was good in the air

It’s one of his strengths

we need atleast 3

the inability in front of goal is….Bambi hiding behind his defender on every cross coming in the box is laughable

It's hard not to get frustrated by just how toothless we are against Premier League opposition but the lack of a goal threat is just a continuation from last year. I think heading into this we were 2nd from bottom for shots, just ahead of Ipswich.

But then I think DCL, despite his role in keeping us up, just isn't a starting Prem striker. I don't see much in Beto either.

you mean the park bank?

Onana score for villa

 

[Gerbs]

all coming through Tim and Ndiaye

That’s bc 90% of their touches are positive and towards goal. They don’t have dyche’s “PL experience “ of passing it backwards to get to Pickford.

 

[Mickey]

Need to raise the intensity again.

 

[Strumpet]

Starting to let them into the game too much here.

 

[lieneverton]

Feels like we've had our 20 mins, not scored; and are having a lull.

 

[Toffe3m4n]

McNeil hasn't done much in the hole there yet

 

[Zezti]

Onana score for villa

crap though him...

 

[Neiler]

Mc Neill needs to come out of the team, he slows everything down.
