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

[Abraders]

what's the point in investing if our tactics are a shambles.

 

[Lukaku'sLeftTesticle]

Do we really need two DMS? Get barry off and put barkley or cleverely their ffs Roberto you Catalonian clown!

 

[quasi modo]

The brightside of that half is how confortable Galloway looks at leftback.

Looks like another gem of a young defender.

And that the ref blew his whistle to bring it to an end.

 

[daza_1973]

Fair play to Watford for watching our last seasons DVD review and doing just what every successful team did to us last year
Bobby thanks for not......

 

[LocalNative]

What do you think they were booing ffs?

The players???

 

[royalbalou]

If it ain't broke don't fix it....but Bobby, it was broke...and still is

Nobody can tell me Lukaku is worth the money we paid for him 1 good game in 7 is not acceptable in this league.

Just showed a heatmap on the Beeb, hasn't had a touch in the box.

Easy to blame him but why is that? He's having to come into midfield because no one is supporting him, no one is building anything.

Diego Costa, Aguero, whoever, would struggle to score with no creativity or cogent build up play behind them.

Lol at the boos 45 minutes into the season.

 

[Walken]

I don't care if one is one of the kids, just play two wingers, it's not that hard ti figure out you spanish clown

 

[The Mighty Quint]

I can't face another season of this crap, I'm gutted here, nothing has changed.

 

[Everton_Gary]

Too slow in going forward. Same issue as last season. At least Everton are winning possession.

 

[ford_uk]

He will be gone by October

 

[Groucho]

Only league goals do count in the league. He mad 36 apps last season 34 as a starter and scored 8 from open play, I certainly wouldn't put any reliance on him, but mate that's my opinion and you have yours for me the lad can't control most balls into him, and has a 1 in 3.5 goals per prem lg game ratio from last season.

It's a bugbear of mine that folk seaparate league goals from other competitions, mate, that's all.

We may as well not bother playing him in the League or FA Cup if his goals only count in the league.

Not being sarcastic, just saying that stats can be "lies, damn lies and statistics" to be tailored depending on someone's point.

Lukaku's first touch and game reading could be better I agree, but I rate him.

 

[Kantareller]

Starting the season just like we ended last season. Disgusting.

 

[beachy]

Lukaku needs Austin.
