Match Thread Everton v Southampton - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[Neiler]

Haha the tanoy playing Onana - what’s my name.

Theyve been waiting a while for that.

 

[Drico]

My fear is Southampton look like scoring in ways that we really don't. They're more methodical about their approach play. We're all individual inspiration. That was a superb stop by Pickford there at the end. This match is far from over.

 

[jonnyg]

You see how Onana is playing and you think maybe everything will be alright.

Then you see how fragile we are everytime southampton attack and remember we're crap

 

[knowing your history]

Park the bus 2nd half. It's the only thing we're good at

I'd actually put Gordon on early second half. These are types of opponents that will suit him imo especially when you look at some of the space Gray is finding centrally.

They'll have to throw more forward as the game goes on.

Onana just looked into camera, tapped his wwristvwhere a watch would be, thumped his chest and said “My time”

Love it

Thought he said "transfer time"

 

[Bohemian Toffee]

What’d be cool after HT, and bear with me, would be if we tried to score additional goals, without the other team scoring.

What fresh heresy is this?

 

[kenada_blue]

Best we've played in a while.

They've had chances when we've switched off down the right side of midfield and defence.

Deserve the lead. Got to go and get another quickly in the second half, though.

Coleman getting rinsed.

 

[GT77]

I still don't see what 3 at the back gives us in a game like this, we're lucky the midfield is carrying us today.

 

[Devanski]

We’re doing ok but will need another goal to be safe. They’ve had a couple of decent chances,.

I agree

 

[Bebeto]

Very worried with ward prowse when plays higher on the pitch. I can see him score today.

 

[Houghty19]

Onanas half for me top performance let's hope he keeps it up for the next 45

 

[Goodison87]

Are we going to be ok to watch MOTD ? Fingers crossed ?.. COYB

 

[Lobster Johnson]

Our back 5 isn’t working, they’ve had lots of really good chances from open play. We should play more attacking. We’re weak going forward in this formation

Have you watched us in any other formation this season??

 

[Toffe3m4n]

Need another goal, otherwise we're not going to get a result

This is my overriding feeling as well. We certainly need to improve.
