Match Thread Everton v Dynamo Kyiv Friday 29 July 7.45pm KO.

[Brett Angell Delight]

Little worrying that we're losing steam at the half hour mark again

More effort than we’ve put in for a year and a half.

Hope I’m wrong about the lad, but that moment summed Gordon up for me. Arrived in the box not quite at the right time. Ball just a bit behind him. Didn’t quite get enough on the ball to get control or make a chance.

It’s always ‘almost but not quite’ with him.

When you're 22 that's not the end of the world

Gordon been poor tonight. Hope he can really step up again this year. Big weight on his shoulders.

Been poor all pre-season.

It's not, but it's also not encouraging for a starter in the Prem.

It does happen a lot it's always nearly

Hope so. Made a good tackle back as Im writing this.

Just have that sense that I find it hard to see him making that final step.

Great save Pickford.

 

[Nymzee]

Belter of a save

 

[Zeitgeist]

LOL that free kick was an effort

 

[sdk]

Yikes. Nice one, Pickford.

 

[Street end man]

How do you know he wasn't an asser before as well?

Picking up on an innocent typo before the fat fingered whopper has had time to edit is the lowest of the low?

 

[Nymzee]

Took a deflection too

 

[Ufotone]

Great save that

 

[GT77]

Bloody hell, he caught that shot a bit...

 

[Rich1878]

What a save !

 

[nsno_traditionally]

Pickford that one out
