Bit of an odd title assessment given the scoreline, # shots and the woodwork hits
Everton complete Carabao Cup win over Salford but defensive injury problems grow
The Merseysiders may head into this weekend with only two fit centre-halveswww.telegraph.co.uk

Who the hell came up with that headline?Bit of an odd title assessment given the scoreline, # shots and the woodwork hits

What’s this nonsense from the BBC?:
“ However, it was a far from straightforward victory for the big-spending Premier League club.”
We hit the woodwork 5 (4.5) times and won 3-0

They really need to watch Everton more if they think this is us making hard work of a cup game! lol

The usual embargo gang seem to properly hate us now. Even the kopites like Bascombe and Joyce used to be okay but its nothing but sour grapes these days. I wonder if they don't get as much info as they used to from Brabds/Moshiri/Kenwright et al.And Keane scored 8mins in - wasn’t like we were in the 80th minute before breaking them down. Sure we needed the 2nd to be truly comfortable but still!
In contrast the Guardian has this
Everton gain a head start from Michael Keane as they ease past Salford
Everton ran out 3-0 winners at home to Salford, helped by an early header from Michael Keane before Gylfi Sigurdsson’s 74th-minute strike and a late Moise Kean penaltywww.theguardian.com
Bit unprofessional in my opinion. Its all very 'stay in your box'.
“Siggy’s pen, No.10.... no Moise don’t ruin it!”
He played for the RS and he married the beautiful Louise - it doesn’t matter what he said, he’s just wrong - always!

Field that same team against Fleetwood and we could struggle. Not saying that Fleetwood will beat us. But we could struggle. wouldn't like to see that Everton team tonight go a goal behind. Not much fighting quality on show. Not much leadership on show........
So to make sure that we progress in this cup let's hope that Carlo goes a little stronger. Put on our new midfield. All three. Gordon also. And play DC L up top. Hit Fleetwood hard in the first half....give them nothing....Put the game to bed.
Then change a few players.........and coast the match.
Other premier league teams will field weakened teams. There will be a few shock results. A few top outfits could go out. Make sure that we aren't one of them.
I don't really trust our second string.........they are not that good.
Job done tonight.........But Salford were not great. Harder tests to come.
Up The Toffees............Carlos League Cup winning Toffees........hopefully.

Nkounkou man of the match for me with Gordon a close second. Some pace down that left hand side tonight.
Worried about Kean though, I thought he would shine against these and bag a few goals to boost his confidence. I know he hit the woodwork twice and slotted the pen, but, his control and decision making looked suspect.
