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

[BigBlueConk]

Way SG celebrated I thought they had just won the league.

 

[Marius57]

Yeah I thought that, saw it smack Cash but don’t know why Digne went down?

One of the villa players looked as if he picked up a coin from next to digne

Now that we've conceded we can get on with the match. Just a formality.

 

[Jamo Martinez]

I cant blame either of them.

Why is Buendia getting a free header. Buendia....

That's true. Although I certainly wasn't blaming Pickford.

 

[MikeH72]

Don’t worry lads Fabio Cannavaro will sort us out.

 

[Clarky cat]

Cometh the hour, cometh the Salomon………

Dunc gets the passion out of the team which is a positive but he still has the same players that have failed miserably under more tactical minded managers yet it still seems like Dunc is now being held responsible for todays game........don't make sense.

DCL is obviously still as rusty as hell so maybe another striker and another midfielder with Townsend and DCL being replaced

Naffed off as I am, think we have to look at our last 13 games, most accompanied by a lack of fight to realise that even Guardiola would struggle to make instant improvement with some of our players.

As bad as that half was, nothing in it disappointed me more than seeing a few morons throwing things at players because they are celebrating a goal.

Hope they all get banned for life

Benitez has done this team dirty. I said this earlier in the season, you can't just go weeks without having any of the ball and then suddenly know what you're going to do when you have it.

Need a totally fresh approach with fresh ideas and a manager who wants to play football.

Dunc will instil the effort and that has been there but there's nothing like quality

Lack of quality on the ball is frightening we have even struggled to get crosses in

 

[bluestevon]

What does "more passion" actually matter when at home to s team that's struggling too and lost more games, you manage around 40-45% possession and get out shot like 8-0.

Leaves Gordon out, plays a horrid 4-4-2 when Gomes clearly can't play in that, plays Kenny whose woeful, plays Holgate whose similarly bad.

 

[spudmuncher]

Players are unbelievably crap... our standards are so low... even the ones we think are half decent aren't really very good at all .... 100k a week and can't pass the ball 10 yards

 

[bluesb1970]

Bottle doesn’t even hit Digne

I was about to post that. Not condoning the throwing but Digne was being a Fanny there.

 

[ProZ]

Wonder if dunc has paid for a pint of bleach on way out

Two in the middle yet again toff. Ferguson, whos witnessed what we all have surely should have seen that we dont have players for 2 in the middle, end of.

Strikers arent getting the ball, townsend whos been poor off, Allan on and we will see the ball more for sure.

But as always, start the game a goal behind.

Er... The bottle never even hit Digne..??

Cash threw himself down when he felt a slight touch of the bottle. Pretty sure Digne got a coin to the head though. Either way, the scum need finding and banning, not that easy though obv
