Match Thread Everton v Notts Forest. Sun Dec 29th. 3pm

[Blue Roo]

Broja learning how hard dcl has to work

Playing better and more of a presence/threat than DCL though.

 

[Jacob]

Defence is a shambles today. Were behind the 8 ball from the kick off with two poor full backs and two centre backs who are mere shells of the players we know and are playing like strangers. Add Doucoure lumbering round like a halfwit and Harrison scurrying round like a clockwork mouse with and without the ball.

Strong liquor and rosary beads methinks for the 2nd half

 

[ste d' indica]

The cyborg just put City 2 up, small mercies.

Half time summary:
Ref is on an away win bonus.
Dyche is clueless.
Broja is lonely.
Harrison is a waste of space.
Doucoure is a waste of space.
Midfield are rudderless.
Back four all have a mistake in them.
We are a goal down from simple direct play

Other than that...

P.S. Forest are the team most in form at the top right now, so there is that.

Tbf, Broja has looked more involved and engaged (to me at least) than DCL has lately (and I actually don’t mind DCL!)

To me that’s down to the opposition.We have had a bit more of the ball than usual because Forest have allowed us to do that they can try to play their counter game. Whereas Arsenal, Chelsea and city had most of the ball.

Still not giving him any real chances or getting round him when we hoof it up.

 

[maccavennie]

Even when we get into great positions, the decision making is abysmal. When Ndiaye made that lovely jinking run it opened up and not once did he look up to see a simple slip through to Broja would have put him in.

These are the massive moments as we barely create anything. Thr one where Doucoure plays a woeful pass to Gueye and it's that bad it ends up at Mykolenkos feet.

Just woeful decision making, woeful football.

 

[Woolverhampton_Blue]

I'm guessing it's awful again?

Awful would be an improvement on that first half.

 

[Victus]

Playing better and more of a presence/threat than DCL though.

Honestly he's done about the same, which isn't much but he will get a HUGE pass because he's new, before the shot he made for himself he was pretty anonymous.

 

[brieverton]

That was categorically a penalty on Branthwaite. Stonewall.

 

[Brett Angell Delight]

It's Forest.





Let me repeat that....







IT'S FOREST.

God is defo punishing us for this cringe nonsense.

He looks better though.

 

[lungo]

Yet it’s all been DCLs fault

broja has now played 45 minutes.Bambinatore hasnt scored since 1918

 

[Stephen Gibson]

Harrison, Doucoure, Tarkowski & Mykolenko have been really poor. Bring DCL on for Doucs & Lindstrom for Harrison. Play 2 up top & launch it to them. We have zero ability to create anything on the deck. It's awful. Doucoure & Harrison just run about a lot. They do nothing football related. They can't control, pass, find a man successfully & have zero football brain. We need a new left back pronto. One that can actually overlap.

 

[edge]

Needs changing the manager has to be brave here.
Not expecting him to like

Prediction


Harrison off Lindstrom on 65 minutes

Broja off. DCL on 78 mins

yep Harrison is a little bit early
