Match Thread Liverpool v Everton - Sunday 10th December

[MACCA75]

I wouldn't mind but for all their huffing and puffing they never looked like scoring up until the Clown done his act and fell over.

One shot on target they have had....and we match them in that stat

You weren’t honestly watching that thinking ‘these don’t look like scoring’. It’s been a matter of time.
Us on the other hand.

 

[Fansince1988]

Lennon on Davies off, Rooney more in the middle and Lennon RW, this would balance us better. Hard game lucky Mane
Decision was wrong and we are only 1-0 down.

 

[Saint Domingo]

Every year we go there with the slowest midfield in the league. How many tines do Davies and Gueye need to be ran over by Henderson before someone learns to go out and buy fast rapid midfielders who can compete in the midfield battle.

 

[riddick]

Am i watching a different game than most people on here? Offensively we've been crap, but except for the goal we were defensively sound.

We're absorbing pressure with literally no outlet. It's a recipe for disaster.

 

[tadpole]

At least we look like a team with a plan, which is more than you can say for some of our games this season. The plan's sensible enough, but our poor passing and Pickford's woeful goalkicks mean that the ball keeps coming back at us.

 

[evertonarntwe]

Would you be saying that if it was 0-0?

Ye. Can't just defend 9 times out of 10 you get caught out. At least have a little go. We have sat there and smashed it out of play for 45 minutes it' embarrassing

 

[BlueToff]

Weird how, despite his assistant clearly telling Pawson it was a booking when Gomes lunged in on Martina, he ignored it.

Yet we have two players booked...

 

[Safc-mark-91]

He was screaming at them to get out though. He didn't set them up to sit so deep. As always they go back to their usual shithouse ways of camping 18 yards out

I know what you're saying. Possibly a mentality thing when you play here. You drop further and further back.

What winds me up as a neutral is you're giving them so much respect. They're not Man City or PSG. They've got an excellent front 3 but defensively are vulerable. Just need to get at them. Liverpool are in an ideal place now, knowing you have to attack and that will leave space to expose.

Ha'way Everton get the next goal! Show something - anything.

 

[Biff malibu]

51% passing accuracy must be the lowest I have ever seen.

 

[arbok]

Either Rooney or sig off for Vlasic.

 

[blue to the bone]

Before they scored they hadnt a shot on target. Up to that we defended well.
It's exactly as expected for me

 

[Blue 1]

21% possession lol

 

[bluesb1970]

Swap Davies for Rooney, bring on Vlasic, go at them more.

I’d say Vlasic for Niasse

 

[daza_1973]

I take it big Sam's psychologist hasn't started yet then ??

 

[Petit]

just tired of them playing scared every damn time

It´s not that mate. We lose because Liverpool have vastly superior players. It´s as simple as that.

If we brought in 11 world class players we´d start winning derbies.
