Match Thread Everton v Leicester City - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[Frenk]

Any athlete or performer needs a challenge or goal to aim for or they won't achieve.I want us playing for 38 games, not 33.

Trying to avoid relegation isn’t a challenge? Seriously, if they aren’t challenged by that then what the hell is the point in it all, shut the bloody club down.

Point was simply Mykolenko gets foward tbf. Gray probably should have passed to him at least once though.

Gray doesn’t like the overlap pass does he

7 points from 7 games keeps us up IMO, gets us to 36. I dont think Burnley are gonna get 11 points from 7 games and if they do fair play to them.

It would be nice to still be above them come Saturday night with 2 games in hand becuase our next 2 are Liverpool and Chelsea, you can pretty much write them games off. I`m going for a nice long walk on Sunday afternoon without my phone, I dont really want to be watching that game.....

I ain’t writing Chelses off, no way.

We have a decent enough record against them at home and I am confident we will take a point.

At least

He just likes cutting in and shooting a lot lol

 

[Zatara]

Terrible performance tonight, we got a point we didn't deserve, but, to put it into perspective, 4 points from our last 2 games against United and Leicester is not too bad all things considered. Went with Iwobi as MOTM, purely based on the amount of work he got through.

Spot on.

 

[edge]

Mostly based on Cornet going full Richarlison the last couple of games for them.

He'll score tomorrow, they'll win against Southampton with something to spare.

They will get beat

 

[Cels]

Not the best team performance from us by any means, so it was a massive relief to take a point from the game and help keep our survival campaign on track. I Felt Salomon Rondon made all the difference when he came on as he gave us something different to work with, which worked.

Giving my MotM to Alex Iwobi who I thought put in another top performance and gave 100% once again.

 

[BirkenheadBlue]

We need to keep intensity and performance levels up for the remaining games, therefore a Burnley win tomorrow will probably be a good thing, means we can't slacken off .

Genuinely the weirdest thing I’ve read on here…. a forum with Dave as a member.

Sounds like a plan that

Good luck mate ?

SKY CRYING THAT 2 GAMES INTO OUR HORROR RUN OF 5 FIX WE GOT 4PTS

 

[Bohemian Toffee]

They will get beat

Hope so mate, really hope so

 

[Khalekan]

this was one of those games we will have targetted for a win.

clearly burnley have the far easier run in.

Our goal difference will take a hammering next week as well.

I bet Burnley would take our position over theirs.

 

[SLAVEN BILIC]

Gray has to benched Sunday, offers no protection to the full and offering nothing going forward.

It happened at Burnley as well. Gordon was running the flank all game, when Gray came on for him he stayed up. Low and behold, they break down our right on a few occasions and eventually get the winner.
