Dyche calls out the players’ lack of determination, probably about as harshly as he can afford to. https://www.evertonfc.com/news/3926295/dyche-on-what-must-change-for-everton “Not taking their chances.” ”We’re lacking .... that desire to go and get the last touch and put the ball in the net.” ”That’s what we’ve got to change — the willingness to get hurt to go and score a goal.” He did not challenge his own unwillingness to drop Godfrey and Harrison.

Have to blame Dyche for stubbornly sticking with Godfrey, who’s not good as defender or crosser. He helps us lose. We’ve seen that for several matches in a row. As to Gomes, I hope he can stay healthy, and I like his play. Going foward. Protects the ball with his bulk, some really pinpoint passing. If in the lineup for Doucouré and thus up the pitch, good. Just can’t think he will defend. Nor can he play 95 minutes.

We had 30 crosses. 30. Can’t cross, can’t finish.

True, but probably good that our next 2 matches are away, as more incompetence at home might make for a sullen mood at Goodison.

Fair point. It’s as if they know they can’t shoot, and so try to dribble it into the net.

Dobbin hands-on-head. Should be our new badge.

McNeil with hands on head at his pathetic cross. Hands-on-head has become Everton’s symbol.

Heavens, Ashley Young to come on. Amazing, Dyche.

Thank heavens, Harrison also off.

Thought Gomes was injured?

Good heavens, Doucouré.

Brilliant cross from Godfrey ........

No changes. Brilliant, Dyche.

Nope. Several of us have instructed Dyche to dump Godfrey, several matches ago, and then including today. He simply won’t listen to us, I suspect because he’s determined to prove Hafnia wrong. It’s Hafnia’s fault.

Dyche simply must get Godfrey off now. Cannot wait another 25 minutes. And cannot start him again. And cannot wait to get DCL on. Now.

Godfrey and Harrison off now. Coleman or Patterson on, DCL on. 4-4-2, Garner RW, I guess.

Yes, both, horrible defending by Tarkowski and Godfrey.

Godfrey ......

Harrison’s “cross” ........

Godfrey, pretty bad there.

Just can’t put the ball on frame.

Excellent Pickford.

Of course, why not?

No, I mean our 3d kit, the light grey. Not important anyway, I realize. I’m just pre-disgruntled about most everything in our season and recent play.

ManU keep giving us the ball — 4 times already — but we can’t do anything.
