Match Thread Everton v AFC Bournemouth - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[TGW89]

Thank god we never have to see Junior Stanislas again.

Cardiff will blag promotion, he'll join them. They'll beat us 1-0 on the opening weekend courtesy of his goal.

A pathetic performance today from players and manager. Losing to a relegated team. Not great. But our football this season has not been great.
So let's just hope that all you guys that love Ancelotti are right. Let's hope that he can turn this outfit around for next season. Let's hope that he really can see all those frailties that we all know are there. It ain't rocket science.
And other managers before him failed to act. Failed to drop players not performing. Failed to motivate. Failed to win football matches. So let's hope that Ancelotti ain't one of them.
Let's hope that Ancelotti is as good as some seem to think.
He's at Everton now. So it doesn't really matter who he managed before. That experience didn't help him much today........did it.
And no excuses about finding out about his player's. He's had about six months now to find out about his players.
Work now to be done. And nobody more that me hopes that Ancelotti can mould us into a decent team for next season. Let's see.

Have been positive about both in the past but sig and davies cannot play for us again. Gomes should be squad. Cut of losses with the trex. Sell Keane while stock is high. Absolutely hate this club

 

[DrEFC]

Once again cheated by VAR, but tbh deserved nothing from that game. They are disgustingly bad. I can deal with them being technically not good enough, but the lack of effort and passion.
Pickford
Keane
Sigurdsson
Bolasie,
Iwobi
Tosun
Walcott
Bernard

I shudder at the money and wages spent on these

 

[rochdaleblue]

Penalties given and not given. All add up. They won't have any case what so ever

Yes but penalties are errors made by individuals. Technology malfunction saved Villa.

 

[Toffe3m4n]

At the risk of sounding like a broken record, arguably the biggest summer in the club's recent history coming up.

The recruitment HAS to be right otherwise we could be in serious trouble next season.

 

[Saaby]

Bye Eddie How, Bournemouth will never be in Prem again...

A team we always struggle to beat.

Mate, the players are dog muck.

 

[Cels]

When you think about it that's an absolutely disgusting performance. These players are apparently playing for their future and they play like that in the last five weeks. Utterly abysmal.

To be fair mate, I think a lot of them realise they have no future at the club either way.

 

[Moggers]

Ah well at least Carlo knows the extent of the job now (if he didn't already!) not like that papering over the cracks, false sense of security end like last season.

Have a good (end of!) summer fellow Blues

 

[evilwebby]

So pathetic. We lost to a team who are demonstrably worse than us, so the only plausible explanation is that they cared more about it than we did.
Completely unprofessional from our sorry bunch of underachievers. Carlo has some major surgery to perform on this squad to get rid of the decades of stink.

 

[NilSatisOptimum]

A crowning moment of bleedin awful football. Let the clear out begin.

 

[Sarnia Kevin]

Anyone who thought that Bournemouth were going to roll over for us today are sadly deluded. A game that summed up our season to be honest - rubbish. I went for Moise Kean as my MoM as he scored a goal from our only decent move in 90 minutes. And I have to award Jordan Pickford a P45 for his pathetic attempt at saving their third goal. You see better goalkeeping in the park on a Sunday morning. Sidibe can have the French version, whatever it is.

Next season can we progress up the field the way we did for our goal, and the way Bournemouth did all game, without passing the ball across the field 20 times to advance 2 feet? We were playing at 3-1 down like we were 3-1 up!

 

[MrGrumpy]

Fixed.

Nope not revolution, we tried that, we failed... we need to evolve in to a winning team with a winning mentality

 

[TGW89]

12th. Our worst finish in 16 years..... 16 years of me sweating over the club, countless agonising radio commentaries, endless disappointments.

Why should I continue to bother. Give me one actual reason.
