Match Thread Everton v Nottingham Forest - Pre-Match Chat, Match Report & MotM Poll

[Tony1985]

Not the worst half of footy. We could do with coming out the second half, play like the home team, and put this game to bed.

The biggest issue is that again in the final third the performance has been woeful. Bad decisions every time, it was even a bad decision from gana to shoot given he had previously only scored once from long range in his last 99 attempts.

We need to sort out the decision making and take the game to them the same second half but with much more composure.

 

[Chegsy]

Young is a bit of a liability defensively...godfrey for me at half time...

He's a mistake waiting to happen. It's not even a one off. It's most games he plays.

 

[UndercoverClaret]

Danjuma on the left, move McNeil centrally for Doucs would be my change. Probably Godfrey for Young as well...

 

[TyphooToffee]

They were both pens tbf
I’d be livid if they weren’t given for us

So you're saying VAR is actually working in our favour? Or does it mean they're letting the referee make the decisions?

 

[TrailerTrash]

Anyone feeling confident?

Not for some years now

 

[magicjuan]

Luck on our side so far, 2 penalty decisions that would have been given earlier in the season.
Really need a second to change the game and I reckon we'd finish 4-0, but as usual we are providing the other side's confidence.

Far fewer here would be saying those were pens if they hadn't involved Young.

They’re pens regardless of who it is. Second one would’ve been harsh but his arm is away from his body. First one he just kicked the back of his foot

 

[HTCHERO]

This game shows why Gomes is perfect in 15-20min cameos. He can't handle the full 90.

Well we can pick from the coward Garner or the Myth Onana second half haha

 

[Tony101]

Made up we are winning but we don’t have play some terrible attacking football.

 

[matty1878]

Not for me. Less than a yard away, common sense needs to be used and rightly it was.

We're certainly trying, severely lacking any kind of quality in the top half of the pitch and our deliveries have been absolutely shocking.

But they're trying, they're working hard and are trying to stick at the task. A 2nd goal I reckon would finish this Forest side off.

we
can’t get the second goal we don’t play good two halves

 

[Dunc's elbow]

Godfrey on for Young.

 

[Mashtray]

Every possible danger has cone from Young. As predicted

 

[Joey66]

Far fewer here would be saying those were pens if they hadn't involved Young.

That hand ball hit was hit hard only 3 feet away tbh

 

[johnjoeefc]

we won’t get a second

We need it matty mate. We need to win this game to get away from the bottom or Luton away will be an absolute nightmare
