Its the ethos (greed) of some of the sellers on the sites rather than the actual company that’s the problem. However whilst people still continue to buy them at ridiculous prices it won’t change. Great attitude top man barryj, how many season tickets do you have mate I would be interested in having the opportunity to purchase the games you can’t attend, if you didn’t mind.

Popular Post Zoo 2.0 Posted July 25, 2019 Popular Post Report Share Posted July 25, 2019 I got back from the game at 11:00 so wasn't really able to post anything about it . On reflection though it was a decent run out for the lads, we never really looked like threatening but then again neither did Wigan who are much further down the line in terms of pre-season. There seems to be quite a bit of negativity surrounding Yerry Mina but I think it's worth noting that this was his first game back after returning from the Copa America so I think we can forgive the odd spell of rustiness from him. Once he's back up to speed I'm hoping that he can be a real asset to us, having someone that's about 18ft. tall is really going to help both at the back and going forward from set-pieces. Pickford didn't have much to do but made a decent save in the first half when called upon, nothing that you would expect him to struggle with but still a solid stop. Michael Keane looked comfortable at the back before having his night cut short with an eye injury, Holgate replacing him in the centre looked good too and I'm hoping that he doesn't go back to West Brom, instead continuing his development in and around the first team this campaign. Lucas Digne and Seamus Coleman again rather comfortable on either flank, other than the save Pickford had to make it was very comfortable defensive wise, even for the youth team that came on for the second period. Nice to see Fabien Delph make his debut and he was very vocal throughout the first 45. Comfortable on the ball and always wanting it in and around our own third. Him and André Gomes dropping really deep and spraying balls to the flanks whenever possible, the latter getting a bit further forward. Siguardsson didn't really get into the game for me and something which was a bit worrying was that on one occasion he asked for the ball to be played elsewhere as opposed to into his feet (despite being in space). As we get up to speed hopefully he can be that pivot in the middle that allows us to switch flank and play through the lines with ease. Theo Walcott had some good moments on the ball but looked terrified to shoot, Bernard similarly had some great moments but never really looked like scoring - the service for DCL wasn't exactly great as both he and Hornby struggled up top. The youth seemed to hold up well in the second half too (especially Tom Davies), with nobody standing out for the wrong reasons and on another day perhaps could have put the ball in the back of the net. Overall though and workout and not much more, the chances for both sides were few and far between and it's when we fly out to Germany that we will hopefully see the team right up to speed. During the season I sit quite high up (I prefer the tactical element of football as opposed to seeing the players close) however with it being pre-season decided to try and sit near to the action. Some snaps that came out alright are included and a massive thumbs up to the Everton support last night, we took over Wigan and could be heard chanting in all corners of the ground walking up. Electric inside too when the teams came out considering it was a friendly, must be fantastic for the players.

Bailey Posted July 25, 2019 Report Share Posted July 25, 2019 I dont know if the Yerry Mina fuck ups were included in that video package but I thought they were both well defended. He is a very unorthodox defender but he is effective. Neither were chances because he had the shot / cross defended but it didnt look very pretty. Their best chance was from a combination of Keane and Coleman. Looked Keanes to me. Thought we inproved when he went off too. pete0 and markjazzbassist 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bailey Posted July 27, 2019 Report Share Posted July 27, 2019 Yep Holgate so easily caught out. Coleman the standout but I think Davies has been bright again. McCarthy and Schneiderlin go completely unnoticed but they do well together IMO but its just a completely uninventive midfield. Davies creates through movement but everyone else is static. Mirallas also better at RB! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
