Playing high tempo without controlling the ball is frustrating. Lucky to be only 1 down......come on Ralph, work your magic.
Well that was woeful. Tempted to watch Corrie rather than that rubbish. Please get Redmond off and replace with Tella. Feel sorry for Stuey only guy putting a proper shift in
I know we are all on edge but I don’t think that was a bad half under the circumstances. We haven’t looked threatening at all but we are only 1-0 down and that is a pretty fair score. We needed to steady the ship, now we just need to hang in there and nick a late goal. We always lose at Goodison, so a draw would be fantastic and take us a point closer to 40.
I agree, I'm really surprised we keep playing him there. I thought we may go to a back 3, but if KWP is out, Jack would offer more.
It is a risk but with our bench we have little choice - Jankewitz for Redmond for me. Armstrong is our only player that really links attack and defence so push him up. Get him dropping into space behind their midfield and creating chances from nothing with his driving runs. We badly miss that.
Everton have so much time on the ball to pick a pass. We are pressed so much our passes are rushed. Can’t see who will have a shot on target, never mind a goal!
Redmond for me if he does change things. Djenepo has earned the place for the second half moreso in my view. But like others Bedders gives me the shakes everytime he's clearing the ball. So how best to close off the potential problem he might cause where he's playing now?
Dull and lifeless. Too many players going through the motions. Tella got to come on for Redders who looks hapless again
Agree with Jankiewitz>Redmond and push Armstrong up Wouldnt be averse to seeing Tella either seeing as he was our best player by a country mile against Leeds.
It wasn’t really woeful. Started woeful and got better. Looked half decent at times ... without the cutting edge again
Hmmm not sure personally, it is literally so long ago he played there, and at a far lower level. Our main issue is RB, and he can play right back better than Jan. Not blaming Jan, and were not losing due to Jan either. It just gives us so little going forward, and isn't great defensively having Jan at RB.
Two average teams. One converted chance. Not much else to say, but we are still in this. Maybe we’re going for iffy first half, brilliant second?
We are still in this guy's. Great tactics, we have put our usual 2nd half performance in the 1st half. We will now baffle Everton when we put our usual 1st half performance in the 2nd half. Ralph's got this.
