Romey 1878 Posted July 22, 2017 Report Share Posted July 22, 2017 Pleased with the run out. It's the type of game we needed before Thursday, it'll have done the players a world of good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elston Gunnn Posted July 22, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 22, 2017 With Schneiderlin and Barry, Everton have 2 excellent controlling DCMs. Rooney didn't look slow or old. Playing like he has something to prove. Ran a lot, clever passes and flicks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lowensda Posted July 22, 2017 Report Share Posted July 22, 2017 Martina to blame. Cue the Romey and J "he's shit" comments. Holgate might be there on Thursday to start Don't think I need to highlight it, you were watching him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newty82 Posted July 22, 2017 Report Share Posted July 22, 2017 Nice tough game that. Genk didn't mind getting stuck in. Ideal pre season game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnh Posted July 22, 2017 Report Share Posted July 22, 2017 (edited) Only saw the first half. Thought Genk were useful but poor finishing. One concern was how easily they passed the ball through our defence. They always seemed to have a spare man in acres of space.

Aidan Posted July 22, 2017 Report Share Posted July 22, 2017 Bottom line - not ready for a competitive game yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rubecula Posted July 22, 2017 Report Share Posted July 22, 2017 No real opinion on the game as it is preseason, but I found it kind of boring to watch. Martina was pretty good as she won so many tennis matches. hope they learn to play in a football team. Overall it was a good try, but there needs to be a massive lot more for the season ahead. If not, I dread to think what we will be fighting for come April/May. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
genkfan Posted July 23, 2017 Report Share Posted July 23, 2017 (edited) Hello from Genk, thought it was a good game. Genk started better always finding the free man, without really getting dangerous, Genk was the better side for the first 35 minutes. Koeman was not amused and when he instructed your team to play high pressure and the last 10 min /quarter of the first half Everton got the better of the game which resulted in a goal (faul on Khammas and I think it was offside from Sandro, but nevertheless good finish from Rooney). Genk got the deserved equalizer and got it by poor defending on your side. Second half was less entertaining with Van Stekelenburg with a superb safe on a Samatta header. Think it was a good game being a friendly, Genk still misses some key players (playmaker Pozuelo, strikers Karelis & our top-signing Ingvartsen and both our right backs and our left back are injured, but the replacements did well). Shame we don't play in Europe this year, think we are ready for the league. had a good chat with some Everton-lads before the game, nice guys. All the best in the league!

Shukes Posted July 23, 2017 Report Share Posted July 23, 2017 Genkfan. Your team seemed sharper than us throughout and made it an entertaining game. Much better than I thought they would be and you look strong for the coming season. Good luck this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
