Match Thread Everton v Watford. 8th Aug at 15.00.

[DualityNSNO]

I am actually furious at how bad at this attacking malarkey we are.

 

[USABlue]

Not sure what lineup people expected given our injuries

 

[quasi modo]

Watford pressing brilliantly.

 

[Jayhow15]

i'm not being negative, we are playing bad, yet we might get lucky and score, but we need somebody creative, it was obvious before the transfer window and it's obvious now, Cleverly is good, but he's not the answer to our problems

Oh you were being more negative than an Ion.

 

[Liam-EFC]

Phenomenal character..

 

[riddick]

They right there shows why Martinez is clueless. Mirallas had the ball, McCarthy has the ball, two players RELENTLESSLY hounding them. Watford gets near our 18, Everton stand off.

 

[Eric Djemba-Djemba]

Not being Sunderland is the only positive I can think of.

 

[quasi modo]

Not sure what lineup people expected given our injuries

It's only missing a couple of starters from a usual 11.

 

[Abraders]

Not sure what lineup people expected given our injuries

this is pretty much our strongest side bar baines n gerry

Watching this on a stream and fans already booing,sideways passing not going down well.

Definitely a problem. Not helped by the fact that all our other wingers are injured. Without a marauding left back we have no width or dynamism on the left.

Exactly and he knew Baines was injured, and he hasn't addressed it he could have put Coleman at RM Mirallas at LM and cropped browning into RB. We are lob sided as we were last season.

 

[Huyton Layne]

Shoot all day Ross, you will get no agro from me. Probably the most likely way for us to score

 

[Jxg]

Stones furious, waving his arms after winning the ball telling Barry to do something with it

I honestly wouldn't blame him for leaving.

 

[CrustySack]

No width, too narrow, constantly running down blind alleys.

Good, they pay their money and the aren't thick, they know their football
