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

[Rita_Poon]

Gotta be ruthless in this league.

We aint!!!

 

[ADT]

If we don’t get a striker or two in by the deadline then we won’t have one

 

[james2805]

He was good and bad. Don’t base a whole performance of one moment, hence why I said good and bad.

I mean... he had 3 bad mistakes that could have cost us the game, he has been pretty bad today, that's just facts. I like him as a player, but he's been off his game today

 

[diggerdestroyer]

I disagree about rondon. He hasn't been a world beater but he's had a couple nice hold ups off his chest

ya but thats the least you would expect. he also couldn't control 2 that he should have had.

if you cant do anything else but hold up the ball you need to be able to do it.
I'm hoping he can as we badly need it

 

[Melchizedek]

As foreseen Gordon being held up to the 50 million price tag with every touch. Hes doomed. Either stays and gets held up to that price tag and everDa incorporated will ruin him. Or he will rot on the Chelsea reserves bench.

Which is why we should sell. We could improve our squad, and he won't have the fanbase turn on him for not living up to a value that is obviously far too hight.

 

[Zeitgeist]

With some of the comments here you'd think Tarkowski have scored and own goal and been sent off Jesus Christ

 

[brieverton]

Might get a bounce bringing Onana on.

Playing towards the Gwladys.

Wind in our favour.

Set Pieces.

Clutching, At. Straws.

 

[Mozza1987]

Done alright but we just have nothing going forward

 

[Kev The Rat]

Let’s not lose. That’s the main thing

0-0 at home to forest is not going to help us in any way

 

[andy4efc]

The Davies agenda in full effect.

Apparently the worst player on the pitch when Tarkowski has squared it to Forest about 3 times.

Da's gonna Da I suppose...

Tarkowski has been good and bad in moments. Davies has been generally poor. Like I said in the post you quoted, he’s been good and bad. Never said anyone was best or worst.

I’m sat in the stand and praise him when he does well but he is petrified of the football.

 

[hktoffee]

Go for a win ffs.

Pickford

Patterson Coady Tarkowski Vinagre

Allan Onana

Gordon Iwobi Gray

Rondon

 

[DanB90]

Mad how it’s took 2 1/2 seasons to figure that out

Yeah he’s never quite had the threat to make it as a 10, or the pace/end product for a winger. But as a dynamic 8, he’s been a revelation.

 

[lungo]

Iwobi with confidence is something else. He's ran his backside off to close down players and showed some nice composure and distribution.

I never had him down for this position but he is making it his own through sheer effort.

Effort yes but it is not consistent enough to be really helpful.

Davies has been fine, our biggest goal threat funny enough.

He's been all over the shop on transition though. Nowhere near anyone. Gana instantly fixes that for eg

 

[sladen90]

Rondon is doing ok. Not threatening but he's held the ball up well and chested a few long balls on nicely.
