Match Thread Everton v Man.United Carabao Cup - Preview, Match Report & MotM Poll

[ChesterBlue]

Meh.

Just another year without the club winning one potential domestic trophy mate.

Grown tired of making excuses.

Did Everton turn up tonight? No

Did Everton even turn up 50% of the performance they could have done tonight? No.

Too many, like Gomes, who just hide.

How many years without a trophy now?

Let's stop making excuses and get angry/hold players responsible for not turning up when it matters.

I agree with everything you’ve said, and screamed at the TV plenty, but it is what it is. Carlo needs a lot more time to fit that squad plus the FA Cup’s still there.

Gomes needs to go, as does Tosun, Delph, Bernard, Sigurdsson, Kenny etc. I don’t think it’s all doom and gloom, we’re well positioned in the league and just won 3 hard league games on the bounce before this.

Tonight made it plainly obvious to me that we need pace in attack, and quality final balls (obviously this is something James will bring when he’s back fit) I don’t think we performed well tonight by any stretch, but I still don’t think you can look past the officiating out there which was shockingly biased

 

[RomanReigns]

What are you on about. You made a statement which was incorrect. Davies replaced Gomes. If you are going to post get your facts right

what is incorrect about my statement?

i did not say it was a direct replacement did i

 

[Ring master]

Think carlo said Rich is ok,missed who hes talking about in the background

 

[Davidoff]

Carlo needs a strong say in transfers - a couple of decent windows and well be right up there

 

[BluePeadar]

Happy Christmas me arse

 

[Frenk]

We need more goal threats...

Can't rely on DCL every week...

We need more options...

Tosun?

 

[zzebra]

Type of performance I dreaded and just wished we had been knocked out previous round so we would have least have had a week off.

 

[wesh]

Buying players with no heart. Losers like Bernard and Iwobi and Gomes. Just here to take their bumper salaries.

I'm holding onto the hope that the fact that none of those names were Ancelotti signings will see us through

 

[marcus]

Tosun?

Seriously...

 

[Big_nev]

We've not played well at all tonight but at the same time we've been shithoused out the cup. A result that suits everyone and keeps the narrative that this Man Utd side are a top team.

In reality we've had Mina grabbed by the throat and Richarlison knocked out cold and yet the only thing that's been banged on about after the match is that ''Ole'' made 9 changes. Joke.

 

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

We are, and you aren’t. You are looking at Tosun.

So the player trying to make the pass (where the commentator actually says "Sigurdsson's ball is cut out") I'm watching now at this moment in time is wearing yellow boots with number 10 on the back of his shirt is Tosun.

 

[daza_1973]

I mean what are you meant to do when they get away with stuff like this? It's every single week.

Ferguson ended up in Barlinne for less, the disparity in refereeing for the darling money clubs is sickening.

 

[KaiserEFC]

This is it really.

You can always lose a game but for once wouldn't it be nice if we turned up for a big game?

Was anybody surprised with how we played tonight? I know I wasn't as we do it every single time.

Mate from minute 1 you knew United would score late on just to make it extra painful

 

[Michaelcoyb]

grabbed Mina around the throat for about 5 seconds, then threw him to the ground

the ball was not near them

no card, no foul even

no var in caraboa

 

[eurosrees]

Godfrey had to tell at least 3 players to run or move when he took a throw in, running or moving into space should be a minimum requirement.
