Friendlies

Played against ourselves and got beat.

ffs

You do have to wonder why we're even bothering. Can't organise a friendly, can't even play 90 minutes, this isn't a build up to a league resumption, this is a build up to having a kick about with the 6 lads the other side of the swings.

When you say 'we' do you mean Swansea or Everton?

Just watched some of the clips of the 11 v 11 training match. Got a bit concerned watching Davies put a sliding tackle in no one wearing shin pads fortunately no injuries reported yet from this!

It was only on Niasse mate so it was fine

Bloody difficult to get onto what was going on as the highlights were all mixed up, one minute the were attacking the street end, then the park end then the street end

DCL and Richarlison looked good in the highlights. Kean too but the lad just can't find the net for whatever reason. It was nice to see Gordon score as well and Mick Keggar banged in a couple of headers from set plays so maybe he can keep that going.

Everton "our midfielders are dropping like flies"
Also Everton "Dont worry about shinnies lads"

I'll tell you who doesnt know anything about preparing a football team: Carlo Ancelotti.

But it’s not Ancelotti arranging friendlies is it?

To be fair, I think there have been rumours at previous clubs that actually he isn’t very good at that sort of thing.

Still confused why we haven’t had one. Some clubs have had two already.

Because we're Everton FC and we organise pre-season tournaments where we play two 60 minute matches in the same day and home games at Tranmere.

Only Everton fans would believe rumours that Carlo Ancelotti (voted 13th best manager of all time) 'isn't very good at preparing a football team'.

Out of interest, who are the 12 ahead of him?

I’m not saying it’s true, I’m just saying his reputation is more for being a good man manager and tactician, not really for being a great conditioner. There have been murmurings of his teams being a little undercooked at times. Even the 13th best manager of all time can have weaknesses you know, it’s allowed.
