Match Thread Everton v Newcastle United - Preview, Match Report & MotM Poll

[banno]

Didn't get a stream until half time so how are we playing? and does it look like we will go on and win it?

Whilst Koeman was generally off his head, he was right to call that some games you don't really need Gana doing Gana. There's nothing to break up here, they are either defending or countering down the wing.

 

[Huyton Layne]

Possession 76% you say?, I know someone who likes this.

They look like stats from a cup game against a minnow. 60 passes from Newcastle in 45 minutes and only about 36 successful.

We need to get a goal in front early second half.
This completely changes the game, forces them to come at us for the equaliser instead of relying on the counter. We could pick them off from there.

 

[Tubey]

Why are people criticising him for it? What more could he have done? If he'd have scuffed it he probably would have scored but he got good contract.

Because it's fashionable to have a pop at him.

He hasn't been great but that was clearly a good attempt on goal and an even better save.

They are rediculously well drilled at defending. Its going to take something special or flukey to win the game, were better than them all over the pitch, just cant find the gaps we need to make it count.

Not really, always feel like we´re going to create a chance when we´re going forward.

any stream for this?

 

[TheBigBaldy]

Lookman is an impact player.

Hope this puts it to bed now.

Put to bed the “Lookman is better than Bernard” shouts

He has only ever seemed half decent coming off the bench. He looks like he's going to do something but hardly ever does

It's one of those games where it's equally likely that we could dominate the game and lose 2-1 due to a fluky counter or win it 5-1.

It depends on us getting a second before the hour mark here. If we do, we stroll the rest of the game.

Lookman is an impact player.

Hope this puts it to bed now.

A young player starting his first game in over a month not motm at half time? Better sell him.

 

[CRIMHEAD]

I think we are going to come out and put in 3. Everton 4-1.

 

[hktoffee]

Lookman is an impact player.

Hope this puts it to bed now.

He really doesn’t do enough. And not doing the extra bit when Coleman need helping out when defence.

 

[micknick]

We grew intl that half and ended up completely dominant. People make sweeping statements based on 45 minutes, you're pathetic.

 

[phil_t98]

walcot and Bernard second half and we'll be to much for them
