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

[The Mighty Quint]

Same old crap from last season

 

[Sy-]

Different team now Kev is on the left cutting in, bin off this [Poor language removed] wing-play, we are never quick enough to get in behind anyone anyway.

 

[Jxg]

Watford's game going perfectly. Nick a goal then put 11 behind the ball, lump it forward when won. We've got another hour of this.

 

[Seamus Colemole]

Defence to midfield, back to defence, back to mid, back to def, long ball to Lukaku, lose posession.

Stand around half arsed as they attack with speed and directness.

Great stuff.

Barkley at least is trying to actually score a goal.

 

[Zatara]

Thats not how most would describe McCarthy. He's playing next to Barry which means he needs to have eyes in the back of his head.

McCarthy is dog poo. Mirallas tried a one two with him twice and twice the return ball was terrible

 

[Ducans elbow]

imagine when we play a good team

 

[USABlue]

this is pretty much our strongest side bar baines n gerry

That's what I'm trying to say mate. People want two wingers but we don't even have two healthy wingers. Besic and Gibson are hurt so Barry was always going to play unless we played a 433 with Naismith in the front 3 with McCarthy cleverly and barkley in midfield. Only change I could see

 

[cronullasharks]

This really is utter tripe so far

 

[ianefc]

Just an update for those not watching 30 mins in, new promoted Watford keeper has had to make 2 saves one from Barkley just now and one from Barry which was going over anyhow.

 

[gianthogweed]

This is deja-vu of last season here at Goodison teams pressing us and we have no answer to it
Rom needs some help up there he is pathetic with his back to the goal

 

[Big Fat Sam]

Our passing hahahahah

 

[Abraders]

good effort ross, more of that plz

and the next touch of the ball he hits it up and it goes to them

We are so easy to play against you can't blame them

 

[TheFinnFan]

This is the entirety of 14/15 rearing its ugly head.

everton qpr 0-1 ffs

That's because most vastly overrate him
