If you ask me, we shouldn't have changed formation/personnel from the second half last week (Morgan aside of course) That was perfect but Adkins has to go tinkering doesn't he? I know Everton are a good side, we weren't expected to win but why change a winning forumla?
Well Fox picked up a minor knock, and so did Morgan. So Clyne had to move as Shaw is recovering from illness. Puncheon repeatedly gets criticised for not getting back so he was dropped too. That's only 3 players out from last week.
Missing Morgan badly. We need his composure on the ball to slow down the play. Hey ho if we lose then its no big deal. Just hope we don't have another Arsenal on our hands.
Nothing would have been a sure victory smart arse. The way we are playing we have 1 centre midfielder half the time at the moment. We are as wide open as it gets. 4312 might have worked with Hammond and Cork instead of Lallana and JWP. Cork and Hammond are more disciplined and better defensively but aren't options.
Seems like tactical naivety as we have allowed them far too much space on the wings which is strange seeing as everyone know how potent Everton are on the wings and getting crosses in. Also very very ambitious teams selection as Lallana JRod Lambert and Gaton all very attacking players shame as it seems we looked capable of giving them a good game.
No we don't, stop talking rubbish please. It's evident to anyone watching that we have more than one central midfielder half the time.
Adkins needs to sort the defence out. A good attack alone wont keep us up. Our defenders are not that bad, it is the way Adkins chooses to play why we concede so many. Not saying he is a bad manager but maybe save that for the home games rather than Arsenal and Everton away.
Both our full backs being ripped th shreads, mostly by their full backs who look like world beaters! Shame JRod didn't score the one on one with the keeper when we were 1-0 up!
it's not the having an opinion, it's the immediate moaning that gets on peoples nerves.... just get behind the boys.
The one thing which does go in a favour in the second half is that we already have the players on the pitch to get score us two goals. Of course in all likelyhood though we are going to concede more goals in the second half.
