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

[Saint Domingo]

Need Richarlison in second half. I’d get Gbamin on as well.

 

[PhilRegan]

It's not a classic relegation scrap

 

[Gerbs]

Not a horrible half playing 45 min with 10

 

[Frenk]

A new low?

Nope, same old, same old. Where have you been all these years?

 

[Kiwi]

Think we've been really poor progressing the ball from the back.
Look ok when we're on the ball in their half, but can't really get there

 

[Bob Latchford]

Just noticed Duncan wearing rosary beads in the dugout. Looks like he's put his rangers days way behind him now. Good. We need a prayer here by the look of it.

noticed that myself
Tbf he prob has a prayer mat and an incense burner in the changing room. This is desperate but we’re completely decimated

 

[sageyefc]

Allan and Davies are a horrible midfield partnership, gap miles apart between them Watford running off them at will

 

[Chrismac]

Digne will get sent off.

And not even care

 

[TheBigIguana]

We're crap in possession
We can't defend set-pieces
We are regularly getting caught wide open in midfield
Our full-backs aren't getting forward

It's crap, it's dreadful, and it's on the manager to sort out.

I really don't think it has been that bad. And the last one is just certifiably false.

 

[Parker]

The audible moans in the stadium when Pickford overhits a kick proper does my head in. They're the same people who'd be happy with Nick Pope just trying to keep the ball within the boundaries of the pitch with his size 14 Timberlands on. The fact that we have a goalkeeper who passes instead of clears has spoilt them.

 

[II McColl II]

It's games like this were you are just constantly reminded how bad of a footballing side we've managed to build.

Everyone involved over the last 6/7 years behind the scenes has failed this club horrifically to the point where we can't play attacking football against any side in the league home or away.

 

[Bob Latchford]

Gordon is not Tyson Fury but he needs to assert himself physically

Haha…
mate! He weighs about 7 stone!

 

[CahillsCornerFlag]

Rondon needs hooking.

 

[daza_1973]

Watching Everton since Martinez's first season is like gods punishment of Sisyphus.
Same old, same old cycle of never ending shiz.

 

[sdk]

Keep making chances like we've been doing and one will go in. Maybe two, even.

This is the new model stay-in-the-game Everton.
