I feel like we’ve been robbed of a point. Chelsea clearly the better team, with the refs assists, one of the worst showings from a ref in recent years at Goodison.
Im be used at the way we were set up, Gordon in CF up against two highly experienced CB’s was literally men against a boy, yet we continued to pump the ball up to him to try and win headers, McNeils taller a switch early in first half was needed.
Both teams toothless in attack and a needless mistake cost us the points, however our shape was better, Tarks and Patterson solid PL debuts, McNeil not so much. Add a proper CF to that team and we’re not too shabby.
