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

[banno]

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

 

[DOMNOLAN]

Digne was disgraceful, it was like the last minute of the CL winning goal the way he celebrated.

Clarts have been booing him all game, after that, he doesn’t need to be restrained

Which we could maybe take the high road on if some moron hadn't lashed a bottle at him.

 

[gonetomorrow]

Must get Gray into the game.

 

[COYBL25]

40 mins, not even a single shot

Why are you still here ?

 

[Howard's Beard]

He's benched Gordon and Allan. We all agree that a 3 man midfield is the way to go, Dunc goes with a 2 man midfield. We know Villa are an attacking side, Dunc starts Holgate in a 2 man defence.

Allan was nursing an injury in the week

Gordon and Allan can’t pass a football either?

 

[bluelife]

Kin hate Gerrard.

 

[ForeverBlue92]

i preach patience

It takes a long time to recover from the Benitez effect

We were crap long before Benitez rocked up.

I question has our fanbase been in a coma since Martinezs first season and only just woken up at the start of this season.

This team is so desperate for midfielders it’s absurd.

Did you really just put at least we’d be having a go under the waiter lol

 

[bluelegend]

JJK is particularly frustrating. Every time he gets the ball he slows down or turns around. Even Godfrey gets forward more then him and he’s not a natural FB. Throwing Townsend in front of him makes zero sense I’m afraid. Need Gordon on badly.

 

[hirons11]

Two minutes injury time, Pickford tips it over the bar with 2 minutes 9 seconds gone and they get to take the corner, boils my piss that.

Matty Cash should be on a least a yellow.

Need to do more upfront, still a team lacking a lot of confidence.

 

[Caolam]

Can’t understand why we are so anti Digne, he would still be in blue if the idiots who run the club had not sacrificed him to let Benitez appear strong. He is just trying his best for his new employers, I wish he was still playing for us.
At least the players are trying for Big Dunc, unfortunately while he can put some fire in them he cannot do anything about the lack of quality.
I am still hopeful we can get something here.

Still too light in the middle

Allan on, Townsend off. Go 433
