Match Thread Everton v Nottingham Forest : 3pm KO : Saturday 20th August 2022

[Fishman]

Mykolenko has a powerful shot.

Would love to see Pickford have 1 too!

You dont need to push up with a back four.

If you press high, you need to. Desperately.

If the distance between the striker and the central defender is too high, it does not matter if you have have 2, 3 or 8 man midfield. You will get exposed and punished. Happens all the time. Silva post Zouma. Last season away against Palace and Spurs. Every single Manchester United game with Rangnick at charge.

First thing Tuchel did when he took over for Lampard was to stop pressing, so he could sit back with his slow backline.

I see everybody has Ron the Don starting...oh well.

He has to tbh. He's crap, but he's all we've got

 

[RomanReigns]

I see everybody has Ron the Don starting...oh well.

Maybe because he set up about 5 chances in his 10 minute cameo last week

 

[Mrtallywacker]

He can stick his 3 at the back up his hoop. We need a solid base today.

Imagine if he actually did that my son. He'd run like Mark Pembridge.

God bless

You can defend deep in a 442. Deep block and spring on the opposition. Simeone plays this way, for example.

We need to be a lot more compact. That's the key.
