Thought that was obvious, but then I realise who it is I am replying to.

Re: Everton (A) Match Thread
How many times in the last 12 months have we lead only for the opposition to change things up, we do nothing, then rat-a-tat-tat we are losing within 10 minutes of the changes from the opposition. That's not down to us fading it's down to us being so bloody predictable. Sometimes you need to take the blinkers off where our management is concerned

Re: Everton (A) Match Thread
How long must we persist with this Wood and Barnes crap, it doesn't work anymore. It was brilliant when it did but it doesn't anymore and before we say anything about scapegoating we saw last season that Wood can score goals.
Re: Everton (A) Match Thread
Under Dyche two things have been very consistent which has contributed to the success.
Good home form and the ability to hold on and be resolute to see out a result.
Without them I think we're destined for the drop.
We look like a newly promoted side at times. Very naive to think we can keep doing the same thing while other teams switch it up.

Re: Everton (A) Match Thread
No it was not obvious, it was contentious. Pickford ran into Chris Wood who was offside, and both were nowhere near the ball. Pickford running into Wood had no bearing on whether Tarky’s header was going in - he was miles away from the ball. This is a DEBATABLE point.Devils_Advocate wrote: ↑Mon Sep 13, 2021 9:45 pmIt was obvious why it was offside but you failed to see that so we're evens

Re: Everton (A) Match Thread
Maybe so, we will find out at the end of the season, but so far Dyche has weathered all the grief slung his way on here and shuts up the whingers time and again.
You've all crawled out of your hiding places now, but if we went on a decent run the majority of you will predictably disappear again.

Maxwell our star player tonight. Bought by the Amis, placed on the bench by the Manager.....
Re: Everton (A) Match Thread
The Dyche out stuff is nonsense, he does however need to get things back on track with our midfield.
It was and remains an area in need of reinforcements, but in the meantime, whether that’s bringing Cork back in, playing a three at times or something else, I don’t know.
I’m still a long way from being convinced by Brownhill at this level.

Re: Everton (A) Match Thread
Very, very disappointed after such a promising first half. Our form is a major concern, as is our inability to hold a lead - something that was an issue at the back end of last season too.
Dyche seems too set in his ways, and is out thought on a weekly basis at the moment. Surely Barnes' time in the starting line up is at an end? Same old subs, same old time.

It's not necessarily the spend on new players though, is it?
I'm sure Everton pay better wages than Burnley, so they attract better players.

Too sloppy tonight and our wingers were reluctant to take anyone on. Poor to watch and as much as I like Lennon he shouldn’t have got on before Cornet at 3-1 down. Going to be a long season.

I can see the wry smile and immediate grab of the phone to unleash their passionate hatred of Sean Dyche from here. Predictably, they will, in their droves, post their usual grovelling ******** in the new year:
“Fair play to Dyche, I’ll hold my hands up he’s sorted it out”
The amount of times those hands have been held up is akin to a paused Mexican wave at this point.

You’d think after 5/6 years of the same outcome happening they’d learn their lesson, but it was ever thus.
The simple fact is though that what used to be a real strength for us, seeing games out after taking the lead, has become anything but. It crept in towards the end of last season against Southampton, Newcastle and West Ham (all teams we'd fancy ourselves against after getting the first goal) where we went ahead and lost and it's certainly carried over into this season.
Worrying habit for us to have developed and unless we find a way to break it, there's only one way we're going unfortunately.
Re: Everton (A) Match Thread
Dress it up how you like or put your claret tints on but absolute garbage second half and dinosaur tactics by the manager. We can’t defend and lack quality in the final third. Not looking good at all.

I just watched the disallowed goal again. Pickford is never getting to the ball runs out and touches Wood who's looking the other way. I can understand if you're trying to interfere with play but Wood was literally just standing his ground doing nothing.

Re: Everton (A) Match Thread
Absolutely appalling second half. We made an average side look good. We made two ordinary wingers look world beaters after a hard working first half. We could not string two passes together in the second half. I don't see any option than playing with three midfielders now-its not as if we have anyone to partner Wood so we might as well go 5 in midfield with Cornet going right wide. Otherwise we will just get beat each game

Until the opposition make changes, then after that it could have been 6 or 7, we folded like a cheap suit after Godfrey went off

Re: Everton (A) Match Thread
Dyche out is obviously way too extreme but he has loads of questions to answer, loyalty to Barnes, loyalty to Brownhill, loyalty to 4-4-2 even when we are being overrun. Then the subs where we didn’t change anything really, just like for like personnel changes and bar one set piece no real chances afterwards.
Cornet coming on would have shown imagination and bravery. Not Dyche trademarks. We had nothing to lose. Worst case we lose anyway. Best case he acclimatises to the Premier League and leaves the game a hero. We know the lad is quick, direct and can finish. We know our other subs never do anything (last 42 Premier League games not one goal or assist???).
Very, very frustrating after hopes got up.
