Not really. We're absolutely decimated by injuries and they were chasing the win. It's almost like some of you don't expect the opposition team to have a go. Im not surprised with a team full of Dier, PEH and Skipp that we were wobbling.It is really worrying how much control Everton had in that second half.
I pray ENIC give Ange what he needs as early as possible in Jan. He could have us in title fight.A 2-1 win with a back line (2nd half) of poro, Dier, Davies and royal. If you asked anyone before the game you would have taken that!
Lucky win, but we also could/should have scored more also.
We need another option for Richarlison if we take him off, rather son still on the wings for games like that, needed a target man to hit imo.
Gomes was really good for them. First game in 18 months? Quite impressive.
never wanna see that holy quartet of dier Davies skip and hobbie playing together... so terrible on the ball.
What lessons? We need our injured and suspended players back? Great 3 points. The backups did as well as they could but, man, we're just thin at the moment.ground that one out. That’s what matters. Lessons to be learnt
We need shot of the usual suspects and replaced with new blood. Then this nervousness will abate.That was a very odd performance against a very good team. I'll take the three points, obviously, but lots of WTF moments today. Need some smart business in January.
Even without our backups players we still dont manage a game sensibly imoStating the obvious but our back-up players (Dier, PEH, Skipp) just aren’t good enough and are easy to put under pressure.
I think had Vicario not got his knee underneath it it would have gone over. That was a brilliant save.
I’ll take a lucky goalkeeper any day of the week. He has looked a bit more random in last couple of games pushing balls away at weird angles but hopefully that will settle when the team start making some better decisions.Vicario making the tangible difference again.
Wasn't even looking at the other scores, just saw Newcastle lost. That's an added bonus!
