Match Thread Everton v Aston Villa - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[sbbefc]

Been the better team but need that luck in the final 1/3. Same old story.

 

[Cels]

Come on Everton! Keep it tight from the off, don't want to concede an early second-half goal.

 

[Mozza1987]

Rather Simms on for Maupay as I feel he offers a bit more up top

 

[GoldenToffee]

It'll be suicidal by Dyche if he persists with Maupay past the hour mark. This game has to be won. I think we can win it. Penalty box scramble or something.

 

[DanB90]

Missed the Onana booking, was it a yellow fair & square?

Nah. Only got a card because the other player made such a meal of it.

The card was given about 3 minutes after the actual foul.

 

[Tommy Chong]

We shall persevere... COYB!

 

[DualityNSNO]

It's weird with McNeil as he doesn't even seem comfortable taking any touch with his weak foot. It means he has to do so much more work when reading the game to make sure his body shape is right. He'd improve so much with just a half decent right foot.

Coleman doesn't use his left foot.

Iwobi only stands on and barely controls with his left, Onana is more or less the same, Gray has absolutely no left foot.

To go out further - Ronaldo can finish with his left adequately but always tries to put it on his right, etc.

 

[DualityNSNO]

Robben was not my words.

I'd say James Rodriguez like. He's probably not good enough but it could work where the left wing thing just cannot.

lol

 

[Mozza1987]

How is that not a foul ffs

 

[toffeemax]

Not one to comment about stuff in match on here. But Anthony Taylor has been awful today. Like genuinely terrible. Inconsistent, biased, the works.

 

[DualityNSNO]

It's been that long

Shockingly yes.

Doing my 2 minute investigation from the PL site - not a lot of FK's scored every season anyway, we just had a great taker in Baines that scored 2-3+.

 

[Devanski]

Seamus defending well.

Great pass that by Gueye, just hitting Doucure in the back lol

Great pass that by Gueye, just hitting Doucure in the back lol

He has better control with his back than his feet
