Match Thread Everton v Man Utd - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[NorthernBlue]

That counter attack though. I mean come on. We getting nothing today

 

[TheBigIguana]

Oh no sloppy Richarlison is back

 

[Rich1878]

The commentators give Pickford too much credit for basic saves because he's England's number one.

Those 2 saves were not basic saves at all

 

[Bohemian Toffee]

From nothing as well - Keane giving it away trying to play it out.

Just nonsense risks, low reward and huge potential for being costly.

I don't know why we can't keep it simple. Just keep playing low percentage balls through the middle of the park.

Basics, just basic stuff. Nothing on, put it down a channel or give it safe. Not sure what they work on in training.

This match has me on edge, good thing I don’t bite my nails or they’ll be gone by now.

Sadly a CM pairing of Allan and Delph has zero pace or legs in it.

Our CM is the reason we are awful.

We had a back 4 of Martina, Williams, Holgate & Kenny go to Anfield and take a point because we had Gana and Davies in the middle who both could at least get about the pitch and put a tackle in / press.

We give the ball away far too easy. That's why we get punished constantly

 

[Verbal Kint]

First sign of Utd pressure we fall to pieces. The crowd gets negative....

The players just visibly fall to pieces.

Iwobi and Coleman look up for it

Midfield anonymous/headless chickens, so hoofing over them to the pin up boy whose no were near it.

 

[Marcus Halberstram]

I think Martin Keown has called all our players outstanding so far.

 

[carolinablue232]

It’s at the point where I’m most excited about our chances when Alex Iwobi is on the ball. What world is this?

 

[PITA]

The commentators give Pickford too much credit for basic saves because he's England's number one.

They do the same to Allison because he plays for the RS.

 

[Blueclouds]

It amazes me how terrible our players are, earning 100k a week and can’t string two passes together.

This is now massively a confidence issue

 

[irishgoose]

They're both god awful. Slabhead is one of the worst center backs I've ever seen play the game. Glad we splooged "only" £30m on Burnley's 3rd best center back instead of £80m on Leicester's 4th best. ? the pair of 'em.

McGuire was only around 10mil at the time.

 

[Saaby]

Godfrey still losing headers I see
