Match Thread Everton v Brighton Hove Albion - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[GwladysBlue]

Did we get Richarlison an inhaler?

Gomes passes backward more than anyone in our team. We ignore it but cause when he does play forward it looks great.

I’ve definitely noticed that more this season, as much as Delph has been disappointing he always has his head up looking for a forward pass.

 

[CahillsCornerFlag]

Gomes is quite literally the worst tackling player in the entire league. It doesn't matter who comes in for him, we're better off. So while losing Allan is a blow we could be fine on the whole.

Our midfield looks far less balanced today, I’m not sure how you can say otherwise.

 

[Tubey]

Oh no.

 

[Goat]

Davies is replacing Gomes who also doesn't put tackles in

Please, please tell me you don't think Davies is better than Gomes?

PLEASE.

If you answer yes I will request a ban for you.

 

[MercuryBlue88]

Delph will be a one game a week player, any more and he will break down. Think untill Gbammin is up to speed its best to ensure he is available as much as possible by monitoring his game time.

 

[TheBigIguana]

He's not even the worst tackler in the league. Helpfully two examples are lining up for us today

He is, I don't want to argue about a player who isn't playing, but Gomes is woeful defensively.

 

[Chrismac]

I would nearly prefer Digne pushed in as DM (bring Niels in as LB) even though ive no idea if he has ever played there, id bet the mortgage on him doing a better job than Davies or Sig

 

[Maltese_Falcon]

Midfield should have been
Dacoure Delph Bernard

Today

 

[tommytowne]

Whoops! Was not expecting that midfield. Thought Delph would be in there somewhere and that was bad enough. See what we're made of now.
Take a scrappy 1-0.

 

[Vintage]

Where has Gomes gone?

Slight injury..Carlo ruled him out in his presser

 

[TheBigIguana]

Please, please tell me you don't think Davies is better than Gomes?

PLEASE.

No I don't, but Gomes is woeful out of possession. Like completely horrendous. Having him and Allan out at the same time is actually good because none of our other midfielders can cover him like Allan.

Gomes keeps possession, the point of his role in the club

i’ll take the thoughts of our 3 time champions league winner if that’s ok

 

[Snowball]

Make or break for Davies, time to show why he deserves a place in this squad, I'm expecting a performance or an acceptance that he needs to look around for a club that will accept his level.

 

[Tipp blue]

Gilfi and Davies the axis of snails returns.
