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

[JohnRoss23]

No threat of an attack from us unfortunately but we’ve all known that. If we had some forwards and a striker that could keep a defense honest and on their heels we could have something decent.

 

[Deulofeumygod]

We need three attacking players minimum

 

[II McColl II]

Sick of the pair of em Gray and Gordon.

Your job is to create, that doesn't mean just for yourself.

Constantly just head down and either lose the ball or kick it out for a goal kick.

Iwobi aside we'd struggle to finish mid table in the championship based on this showing against a newly promoted team with about 2 players who got them promoted.

 

[riddick]

I can't be the only one who thinks we played well. No teeth really in attack but we're not doing poorly. Bring Onana on and we do well.

 

[Hellerad]

Stone Island, or Sunglasses Hut, summat like that?

Electrical

That fringe would light the park

They beat West ham last week mate

 

[Rook]

Given DCLs recent history, we'll have to choose between overpaying for a bang avg striker or risk relegation.

 

[JohnRoss23]

Sick of how greedy Gray is

Agreed

 

[Oasis1878]

I wouldn't say that like. We've been lively

But gray and Gordon just ruin the attack for me, Gray has a real problem with passing and taking on silly shots

There’s been a total lack of quality, we should be more than lively against Forest who have just come up

 

[magicjuan]

Weird that Iwobi is the most capable and skilfull footballer on the pitch. Head and shoulders above everyone else.
I'd have been shot this time last year for saying that.

 

[Parker]

Just a little side note.

That centre half for them should've been sent off. Mariner decided that because it was 2 minutes in yellow cards don't exist. If he would've done his job then the defender would've either had to let Gray through or get sent off.

3 games in. 3 dogshit refereeing performances.

 

[GoldenToffee]

Will any of our players score this season? Absolutely turgid in front of goal.

 

[GT77]

We've been largely decent but it's obvious where we're lacking.

It's like having a basketball team full of sub-6ft players, you can do lots of things nicely but you're not going to win many games.

 

[only_sleeping]

Did Lampard say in the press conference that we weren’t desperate for a striker?

He’s wrong.

 

[nsno-chris]

Tarkowski - almost cost us 2 goals
Gordon - £50m lol
Gray - probably the least productive attacking player in the league
Davies - it’s Tom
Rondon - us about as useful as a statue
