Match Thread Everton 3-0 Doncaster Rovers - EFL Cup Second Round - Tue 27 Aug 7:45pm

[Toffe3m4n]

I thought in the first half we were needlessly 'cautious'. Just far too slow & predictable. We then seemed to find that second gear 10 minutes into the second half and there only looked like one winner from there.

The biggest positive was a combination of the three different types of goal, the clean sheet & the fact that quite a number of players got minutes and there doesn't seem to be any fresh injury concerns following it. If you're Dyche, I suppose you couldn't ask for much more really.

I would like to say Everton supporters must be the worst supporters in the country for backing there team.
Imagine only 37 thousand plus turning up on a Tuesday night in the pouring rain to see the team play a league 2 side.
Absolutely shameful

Just get the feeling Dyche will pick the same line up as Vs Brighton

I normally would agree, but I think he knows if Ndiaye is left out the fans will turn quickly.

thought there were good moments and hope the same team is given a go on saturday except tarq in for keane and dixon comes on when coleman flags.

Drove straight from work then walked down Goodison Road in the said pouring rain - here I'm sat at work in the same pair of soaked shoes! Shameful indeed

You know we would overpay League 2 players and make a mess of it.

We already do overpay league 2 (level) players

Notable how much better we were with Guaye on the pitch.
Also how poor Garner was.

Even making allowances for how limited the opposition were, that was a good result and should be a nice little confidence booster for us.

Bring on Bournemouth there's no reason for us to fear them at all.

Mate I thought O'Brien played really well today.

Getting his first game under his belt was the key thing for him. Hopefully he can drive on from this now if given the chance.

Shameful performance from the supporters who booed Ashley Young. If that's support....

Will somebody please think of the children.

I feel for Ashley Young this week. First his performance, and then the announcement over the winter fuel allowance.
