Match Thread Everton v Aston Villa (Thursday 16 July 18:00) - MotM Poll

[KaiserEFC]

Branthwaite and Gordon should continue getting minutes regularly over some of these failures. Kind of says a lot about Kean though imo.

Also when these go down Douglas Luiz should definitely be looked at, test City’s resolve with the buyback clause I’m sure they’d have put in the deal.

 

[zzr45]

Gordon would help here

The stone cold corpse of Boris Yeltsin would be the star of our team right now.

 

[Seathestars]

Young Branthwaite has looked cool and composed under pressure, simple balls out too, defo a plus so far

 

[Eggs]

would rather watch come dine with me tbh

....cricket is still on. England 195-3.

 

[Everton1654]

Slight improvement but the midfield is still miles off the pace. Gomes lost the ball 4 times in that half and Bernard is like having a 12 year old on the wing

 

[Papa Shango]

Gomez. Davies, & Bernard are all terrible.

Davies has done nothing wrong today! He has been fine.

I know its fun to hate him these days and most weeks he is useless but he has been perfectly fine today.

 

[Tin-Tin]

He doesn't play in the area that is causing us issues though.

Well DCL has been completely anonnymous and Richarlison has been crap so id say thats causing an issue

 

[Efcjake]

We're about as creative as a paint by numbers picture.

Absolutely nothing being created by that midfield.

 

[Caolam]

Half time and no shots on target, sounds like a cracker.

 

[blue to the bone]

it happens every game we play

Not sure it does. Against Southampton not sure they hyped them up as it meant nothin for either team.

 

[blueconverse]

Keane has had a great half. Branthwaite doesnt look out of place. Gomes is awful. He really is

 

[thorney33]

Digne best on ground by a mile.

Slight improvement but the midfield is still miles off the pace. Gomes lost the ball 4 times in that half and Bernard is like having a 12 year old on the wing

Only 4?

 

[marsh]

This friendly is very boring

 

[Papa Shango]

Every time one of our wingers receives the ball it starts a counter attack.

Bolasie is no worse a player than either of them.
