Match Thread Everton v Wolverhampton Wanderers - Preview, Match Report & MotM Poll

See he's not as stubborn as some people seem to think.

Any other manager it's playing their cards close to their chest and being coy with line up. Here at Everton manager's are not supposed to do this.

I was having a lovely day. Nice breakfast, missus was doing stuff so I watched Paddington 2, which I'd never watched, and which was lovely. Funny and heartwarming. Then I listened to some music and read some Superior Spider-Man. Which, alongside Paddington may imply I'm about 12 and married. Couple of beers, missus drives me to County Road. We talk about The Style Council. Sun was shining, what a great day to be alive.

Then I get my season ticket out

Yes mate. I was up having breakfast with the boy, played some guitar, got the 68 to County Road, listening to tunes, met my mate, had a few pints in the sun, thinking to myself, it's a Bank Holiday weekend, isn't life boss...then we entered the field of screams. They've turned match day excitement into dread.

 

[Jeff Jones]

We'll have a reasonable squad when most of the injured players are fit again and I'm not worried about relegation.

I wasn't expecting Everton to be challenging near the top and would settle for being mid table this season and not struggling
near or a at the bottom.

In the meantime, I'm not enjoying watching Everton and it's been like that for too long.

Just seen the goal, he's headed that from the centre of the goal from 5 yards out from a deep ish cross. Pickford should be collecting that all day long or aleast coming and punching it away

There keeper did all day long , always been pickfords weak point catching the ball and coming for crosses comanding his box, but brilliant reflex saves so do you stick or twist with him a southall he definatly no where near

 

[ToffeeTim]

Pickford should have dealt with that cross. Extremely poor goalkeeping

 

[Naylor56]

Pickford should of come for that cross was in the 6 yard box

The number 1 concern this year is no one seems to want to take responsibility to put the ball in the net. No one wants to put their hand up to be the difference maker.

Lack of leadership. Lack of composure. Lack of conviction. Lack of quality.

And the manager just kind of shrugs his shoulders after we lose. Why is everyone so accepting of defeat? Where is the desperation to improve and get the club moving forward?

I am fed up.

Pickford, despite a pretty good save, seemed a bit nervy today. Didnt seem his usual self. Not sure why. But I thibk Tarks needs to be challenging for that header. Free-header otherwise. And from that close its harder to miss than score

I think the whole defence looks nervy, probably because they know that one mistake will almost certainly cost us the game.

“im guna score”

how the f do you take responsibility about scoring? it’s not a penalty lad

we are creating chances - not scoring

then the other team scores and we’re fd

we need to break the habit

Starting line up for sure but Chermiti was screaming for the ball had clear view of him sitting in the top balcony, the lad has balls in the bag.

I liked what I saw from him. Made Dyche's constant negativity about him look ridiculous. Hes certainly no less ready than all the other players.

 

[ramacca]

A decent performance, creating chances, but let down by poor finishing and poor decision making by Pickford. Last week he flapped at a cross and gave away a penalty. This week he refuses to come off his line and they score.

 

[Littlesue]

Don't care how you do it just make sure you beat them 6 fingered dog heads, had to put up with insufferable Villa fans after last week so don't want Wolfies basking in glory xx

Well that went well, been up the shop for a bottle of milk and already seen 4 Wolves shirts

Totally agree with you there, last week is a perfect example, where he gave away a penalty for coming to late off his line
