Match Thread Liverpool vs Everton - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

We deffo got 11 on the pitch yeah ??

 

[GoldenToffee]

Overall quite happy with this though. Restrict them to few chances. We need to try and get a few set pieces. Right now we're going nowhere near their goal.

 

[PhilM]

Simms making be long for the golden days of Straq

Maybe, there is a reason he hasn’t started games earlier than this or even regularly come off the bench.

He looks very raw in terms of his touch and composure.

An hour ago everyone was banging on about our midfield dominating..... here is your reality check. No matter how bad Liverpool are we will always, ALWAYS be worse!

 

[Bedfordblue]

Way we’re getting penned in looks more like Gray and his pace would be useful.
However I fear we would lose some defensive cover if McNeil went off for him.

 

[Thomasc]

Just feels like waiting for the inevitable

 

[Nymzee]

Had like 8 days between games and we look knackered.

 

[Toffe3m4n]

We're practically allowing them the freedom of the midfield which is a mistake, relying on a relatively deep back 5 to soak up their attacks. Won't be long before they score when they're sustaining attacks like this..

 

[ToffeeDevil]

McNeil is shocking here

Based on his pre-game video for supporters, not even surprised. Seemed so low energy and didn't looked to have any fire

 

[T LEAFE]

What were you expecting.

We are doing alright. It's a competition still and we are defending well. This is the best we can hope for today.

I was expecting a better performance than a pub team
I think there should be an enquiry
Someone must have put something in our tea
The legargy is stunning

 

[Ballymoney1]

Horses for courses. Let’s see what the score is after 90mins. Provided we don’t get pumped by these again i couldn’t care less.

Exactly will take an ugly hard fought point all day. Bit like the one a few years back when we sat so deep we were practically on our own goal line. Rooney scored a late penalty to get us a draw, think big Sam was the manager.

 

[Rooney_Tunes]

Hardly. Keep playing long and expecting him to win it when he is being held every time and there’s no one near him to aim for

He's just poor...can't keep hold of the ball even when it's into feet.

 

[GrandOldTeam]

0-0 feels our best hope.

Can't see a goal in us.

 

[Houghty19]

Simms the lad is struggling to get anything at the moment

 

[Mozza1987]

Simms doing well we need to get up there when he holds it up or wins the flick ons
