No shots on target that half for Everton but with Sigurdson, richarlison and lookman on the pitch, we can't lose concentration 2nd half.

Exactly this.
They have game changers who are capable of creating chances for themselves. My heart was in my mouth a few times when we were tippy tapping the ball around at the back.
We could do with a little bit of luck, to go with our hard work, second half.
 
Agreed, not sure why the fans were getting restless. We've played some great attacking football against decent opposition - we look the better team. Need to get behind the team because the second half is going to be more challenging.

On a separate note - we've got a really good defender in Bednarek.
One good indication why Hughes is not here anymore, Bednarek was mainly igmored by the last two managers and he has blossomed under a real manager who knows talent and can encourage that talent.
 
Valery getting in some good advanced positions, but no delivery

Picking up on my own comment.
Not having a go at the lad as he is getting forward, but with wing backs being an essential part of how we are playing, he needs to be working their defence with his crossing and giving the strikers a chance.
This is also why I think we will miss Targett’s left foot this half.

I've said it before and I'll say it again - our fans are the 'cause' in the cause/effect of quiet and restless home support/terrible home form.

But nevermind, put that on the back burner...
