Didn’t onana get the assist?

Was Maupay

Gray is easily the most likely player we have to make it happen. Cos of this he's easily first choice from an attacking perspective. Gordon is nowhere near him

Gray is the man for the difficult things. Shame he isnt able to do the easy stuff!

Thought it came off De Gea , then Coady tapped it in?

HT

wussies!

We look fine here because we are playing the right formation that he should have played against Brighton being compact and playing on the break. When its on us to attack we are hopeless and get picked off. This is papering over the cracks like the City result still at least Moshiri will be impressed enough by a nothing cup match to keep him

We don't actually look fine at all

 

[Sharpattack]

Iwobi really offers nothing. The half dozen games last season seem like a distant memory. Defensively he is very suspect and going forward does not instigate moves but merely passes 3 or 4 yards to the nearest player to him, usually across or more likely back.

 

[Alanbileysfeathercut]

Good half considering

 

[Jokerdan]

Maybe swop Gray onto the right. Gets plenty of the ball but keeps coming in on his right foot which the United defence suss every time?

Midfield has been shocking, I don't know why United isn't attacking down the middle

They have success every time they do. We are really struggling in that area

 

[CahillsCornerFlag]

Maupay’s best half in an Everton shirt that. I’d even go as far as to say he played OK.

Well we look disjointed I mean defensively we are in it

 

[Jamiednm]

I wouldn’t be surprised if a preeminent linguist calls in to ITV at half time to reveal that ‘Nil Satis Nisi Optimum’ actually means ‘Retarded Football’.

 

[PhilM]

Good half considering

Aye, I wasn't expecting to be level at half-time, nor did I expect the reaction from the players when they scored so early. Although, there's still a lot to do.

 

[Dublin blue 75]

A question. Who is more crap: Gueye or Iwobi?

Both pony today. Iwobi if I had to call it

 

[allen]

Pretty incredible that we conceded after three minutes and made it to halftime level.

Job’s only half done, of course, but I’m impressed by that resilience.
