Match Thread Everton v Burnley - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[Ring master]

he’s vile

Hinchcliffe & Radcliffe when they did com on us - it was so unreal how much they were so against us

 

[john jako]

Seamus offering more attacking threat than Digne again lol

 

[carolinablue232]

Not when you're just lumping it up to him he can't.

If you play him in front of someone who's willing to play passes in behind, it's a different matter.

This is on Benitez. As bad a half of football as has been served up in the last few years. Totally ill-fitting system.

That’s not remotely true. Even this same fixture last year was worse.

 

[rochdaleblue]

Richarlison can't play up top in this league.

Agree 100%. It fanciful for him to think he could replace DCL in that role.

 

[gonetomorrow]

All to play for. Normally we'd be one down after that performance.

 

[matty1878]

Well

nothings changed

the football is absolute eyepiss

sickeningly garbage

all we need is Gomes on to slow it down and make it look even worse.

god sake

 

[TheBigIguana]

Townsend off, Iwobi on, easy win.

We got away with that. You can't have a 5-4-1 with one player who gets you up the field and expect anything but to be put under pressure. It'd probably be worth getting Rondon on for a CB too.

 

[Cels]

Rafá Benitez has a lot to do at half-time. Hopefully, the second half will see us sorting ourselves out and putting this game to bed.

 

[Verbal Kint]

Take Keane off and bring Rondon on

I'd take Godfrey off personally, been utter dross and is blowing out his behind.... Digne has been awful also, then again apart from a couple of flashes from Gray that have all been awful.

 

[BlueToff]

Anyway let's hope for better in the second half.

But almost like maybe that Huddersfield game wasn't just bad because we had a second string out, maybe it's because we have nobody capable of getting on the ball when the onus is on us to control possession?

No room for James on the bench though, ey.

And the anesthetic is now fully worn off so I'm just in agony. Cheers FSW

And Davies to run around a lot and give away free kicks

That was woeful from us. Too much respect paid that lot.

The back three looking after just Wood is a waste.

Flat back four and get another striker on to give Richarlison half a chance to shine.

 

[Lob]

Played right into Burnley's hands that first half and they were actually better than us. Got to change the formation and bring on Rondon and maybe even Iwobi 2nd half.

That's a face that says....."This is awful"View attachment 138914

I like the shroud he’s wearing. He looks like the biblical saviour we’ll need in the second half.
