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

[peteblue]

I’d like to see Tom Cannon in the second half . An actual striker

We need someone don’t we……

 

[Papa Shango]

McNeil
Maupay

Are both way below the standard required.

Get em off Frank!

I dont know how you can watch that and just pick out two players. Quicker to list those who are of the standard required!

45 days to prepare and nothing has changed, we are still turning backwards all the time (mainly because we have a ludicrous amount of players who are not comfortable with the ball), not getting any players up in support when we do actually bother to go forward and totally negating the home crowd by boring them to tears within 10 minutes.

Would it kill anyone to take a first time shot too? You don't always need to control the ball in the box, just put your foot through it!

At least we scored...

 

[HalfTimeSayers]

No change at all from the first chunk of the season.

Every single £ spent faffing around in Australia should have been donated to local causes and just given them December off. Great fun on the beach frolicking all over each other, but still look like they hate each others guts and have no trust in each other on the pitch.

Guaranteed to ruin your life or your money back.

New slogan for the Everton marketing team.

 

[kenada_blue]

Mina scored.
Gordon's had 2 golden chances.
Maupay had a flat out sprint one on one with the keeper...

Neither could finish.

Wolves had 1 chance. Scored.

Hey at least we will have the nicest ground in the championship. It’s like the World Cup never happened…same old same old

 

[only_sleeping]

Still not seen what all of the footballing world have seen to proclaim Onana as having a world class future. Nothing going forward, nothing in defence, wall passes to centre backs in the middle. Has been the same all season not just here. He may as well be 4ft tall. Doesn’t use his size and physique for anything at all.

Strange. If he is actually good, we have no idea how to unlock his abilities.

Great at motivating the crowd though, right?

 

[DanEFC92]

Patterson the only one with any energy, Tarkowski the only one that doesn't make me brick it.
Gordon thinks he's a FIFA player

Honking squad.
Patterson gets marked down for a daft yellow.

 

[whiteshadow]

We haven't been great. But we knew giving the players we wouldn't be. But the thing is we have missed 2 great chances and 2 more half chances.
We should be ahead . But poor players miss chances . But I honestly think we should put cannon up top now. He might be no better. But he might be too.

Give him at the least 30 mins, not just 10 mins at the end when he will barely get a chance to even get in to the game, let alone do anything.

Maupay has had plenty of minutes and done nothing. Worth a try.

 

[steven]

Simple fact is that our attacking players are nowhere near good enough.

Gordon. McNeil. Maupay - just not good enough for the premier league as a trio, maybe could carry one of them but not all three.

 

[Milkman]

Problems in this team are 90% down to the terrible quality of the front 3.

Midfield is fine but desperately needs a creative player in there. Fullbacks are limited but solid defensively, centre backs are pretty decent on the whole, Pickford is fine.

Attacking options though... mamma mia, that's a real footballing cess pit.

 

[Bob Latchford]

Peter Gabriel at half time…. Small mercies

 

[Wat Tyler]

Of course its not.

But letting a winger who doesn't score or create sign a new bumper contract is

I keep seeing journalists saying we replaced Richarlison with Maupay, forgetting that we spunked about £20-£25m on McNeil.

 

[Jacob]

The boos are coming very, very shortly. Very Everton. What an appalling football team and club in general we are. Clueless on and off the field.

If the dozy hole players had had taken their easy chances we'd be 3-1 up now. If I thought we were "an appalling club in general," I wouldn't be supporting them.

 

[ForeverEverton]

Everton 3 shots at goal in 45 mins of football, 2 on target.

Wolves 4 with all 4 on target...

COYBs, got to do these
