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

[D410]

Fear for Silva today he could get ravaged by the crowd if wolves get the next goal.

The supporters deserve better than this tripe week in and week out. Conceding 2 goals at home in the first half against Wolves both of which were our own fault ffs. Dark days for Everton these. We are arguably worse now than even in the back stages of the Martinez and Koeman era. That is forward progress for you.

Sick to death of them.

Hahah no we don't

 

[Mozza1987]

I mean does Silva practise defending at all in training or what? Absolute joke. Sackable for the amount of goals we continually let in from set pieces.

 

[daza_1973]

Silva should of been binned after the 6-2 Spurs rout - any self respecting club with allusions to top four finishes would of done it automatically.
The next 13 games are going to be like purgatory.....

 

[BlueToff]

We need to defend it better. You can't concede every blinking time you give away a set piece. Our marking is beyond pathetic.

And it has been for 5 years

Yes.

Our players brick it.

Apart from about 2 seasons, throughout my whole life Everton have been poor at defending, a bit light up front, and rubbish keeping the ball in midfield, we’ve had a decent keeper or 2 though, so that’s something.

 

[CRIMHEAD]

At what point do you accept zonal is crap. Everyone knows zonal is crap.

Cool. Then why do Pep and Klopp use it?

 

[Aberblue]

Hahhaha what the hell?

He was being sarcastic.

 

[f.t.r.s]

Genuinely glad I'm working instead of being there today, such a bad time to be a fan

"Ravaged" lol lol

 

[Verbal Kint]

It’s his bloody problem he is the manager who chose the tactics.

Yeah im sure he told Richarlison, go mark Jimenez on set pieces. But listen don't bump him, just let him get a free run while you stand still until ball is delivered. Good lad.

 

[BlueToff]

He was being sarcastic.

I get it. It was just a totally irrelevant use of sarcasm. I was responding to his post about this specific incident. Which is on Keane.

 

[KaiserEFC]

Well we man marked there.

The players didn't pick up their men.

So we’re now changing how we defend set pieces during the game? Also on the manager.

 

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

I don't understand the defense on that set piece at all. I've constantly defended Silva, but how on earth can you just hand Raul Jimenez an open header on the 6?

Watching us on the pitch defensively does seriously make me wonder if we actually do any defensive drills in training mate.

It's never been quite this bad. If you float it in you will get a chance. Not even quality delivery is needed.
