Match Thread Everton v Luton Town - Preview, Match Report & MotM Poll

[Ivo]

I don't think Luton will win away again all season. Just to put this result into perspective.

We seem to be caught in two minds. Not sure if we should be passing it out from the back or going long.
The problem this causes is when we do go long, the majority of the team aren't expecting it and so Dom was flicking on balls to their keeper.
What was a bit mad from what I could make out in the Park End was that when Beto came on, him and Dom were going for the same long ball and almost challenging each other.

If the instruction is "just get out there and get yourself to the end of the long ball", which it no doubt is - yeah, it happens.

Just got back home in Portsmouth after leaving at 7.30am to watch THAT with my lad. Terrible defending for the goals but when DCL scored, I genuinely thought the 2nd half would be chance after chance. How wrong I was!!!!! Could still be playing now and not have scored.

Bloody hell mate that's a hike that.

Depends on how many set pieces they get

Christ that header by Beto was grim

Why? Perfectly good clearance I thought.

Gave MOTM to DCL, don't think anyone really deserved it but he got a goal so he'll get it this weekend

Teams have worked us out get a scruffy goal and we won’t comeback. Run the clock down fall down for every tackle. Taylor fell for it today, like they all do. But we can’t breakdown a team at home after going 2 down end of

Bloody hell just seen Bournemouth haven't won and next game is against us.

No one else will defend them as comically bad as we did though.

We weren't organised and thats not good enough. Players didn't seem to know who they were marking and left their centre forward wide open back post.

Really unforgivable stuff tbh.

I can’t understand why he’s wanting us so narrow defending every set piece, and loads back in the box - the players end up getting in each others way and we’ve never an out ball, really drives me crackers.
