Match Thread Everton v West Ham United - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[Sverre Takleifbotten]

I think our pressing play has been excellent. This is the minimum level we need to be at. However, we have little to go on when it comes to pass accuracy, and to utilize 1.vs. 1 and 2. vs. 1 situations we get.

 

[ForeverBlue92]

You cant even enjoy a good performance.

Because we all know it will be followed by a poor one the week after.

We are playing at home - we typically do well at home.

Away from home he wont change which means no europe or trophies - the whole point of being a side in competitive football.

 

[LostLegend]

Should be clear ahead, if we get a second early on we will ransack them. Iwobi has made a massive massive difference in the 10

This all day.

My only negative of the half is that we should have put this game to bed already.

 

[Rook]

I don't think there is much between them. Seeing as Coleman is out of form and Sidibe has done nothing wrong then Sidibe should play. Nothing wrong with having decent players trying to force their way into the team too.

Think Coleman has been good this year and Sidibe is probably being propped up by a club that looks like they aren't sleepwalking today. however there is enough fixtures for both.

 

[18Chris87]

Been good, very positive. As they're saying on bt now the movements been excellent from all of the front 4. I'm loving Richarlisons free role but we just need to get the passing sharper.

Tom Davies pivoting very well and always looking to get an early ball forward, needs to be careful of his positioning though a few times he's been dragged into the ball and let space in but only a small criticism.

 

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

Not enough goals again after dominating, too wasteful, putting balls in the box with no thought as to if there's a player to meet it.

Really should be 2-3 up.

It's hard too nit pick after that first half mate, but if I was too I would say we've been sloppy with the ball at times.

 

[Billy Dean]

Can’t help but feel we’ll regret not making more of our dominance

 

[Tel001]

need next goal before the inevitable happens.

You mean before we concede a corner? Was my thinking too

 

[Deleted member 38674]

Bizarre take on his performance that.

I know, a few on here saying they thought he played really well, I just don’t see it myself.

One turn to slip Rico in is all I can remember. Hasn’t done anywhere near enough to warrant anything higher than a 6/10 for me.

 

[Frang]

Yeah proper hate it when Everton are leading games.

Stop this excitement lads.

GOING TO BE SOME REAL FLIP FLOPPING SHOULD WE WIN

THE SILVA OUT POLL MIGHT GO DOWN AS FAR AS 63% OUT

 

[Rook]

I must have a blind spot with Iwobi because I thought he was utterly anonymous that half. Did nothing.

had a few nice linkups made a few bad touches. not playing bad. If we are going to bring a forward in he's probably the guy to take out.

 

[BlueStevie35]

Because we all know it will be followed by a poor one the week after.

We are playing at home - we typically do well at homes.

Away from home he wont change which means no europe or trophies - the whole point of being a side in competitive football.

Maybe, just maybe this is the kick up the backside he needed, regardless of what happens this should be the 11 that starts at Brighton next week

 

[DickRitchie214]

Nope! Iwobi is the problem. Tries hard but looses to many balls. Still better then Sigurdsson.

Iwobi is the problem? Good lord

 

[EvertonCJ]

Davies justifying his selection. Iwobi creating chances and Walcott looking sharp. Credit to Silva for making the changes. Still need a second goal.

Davies' positioning has always been kind of bad but he's making up for it w/ effort.
