Yeh I agree that it would be weak, good dark art defending in my book. Sibdane 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sibdane Posted November 3, 2019 Report Share Posted November 3, 2019 I thought we were the better team in the first half but kept letting ourselves down with the final ball. They got better as the half went on though. pete0 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nogs Posted November 3, 2019 Report Share Posted November 3, 2019 Poor game. We've looked untroubled at the back and I think the midfield 3 have done alright, I think our front 3 on the other hand have been awful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sibdane Posted November 3, 2019 Report Share Posted November 3, 2019 Spurs are there for the taking. I think if we score one then we'll get the win. markjazzbassist 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bailey Posted November 3, 2019 Report Share Posted November 3, 2019 That was a bit of a weird half as the game hasn't caught fire yet... well in truth there has barely been a spark. I think it has been a solid half, everyone doing their bit and working hard but without a lot of creativity or quality. Gomes and Davies have nearly thread the ball through but not quite managed it and Richarlison has worked a couple half chances but not managed to really test their keeper. Generally with Gomes this is much more along the lines of what I would like to see from him. Getting forward and playing forward, not with his back to goal exchanging passes with the CBs. We seem to have worked out the problems we were having down the right and since then Spurs haven't even looked like getting into the final third, let alone create a half chance. The weakest link for us is Iwobi. I thought he looked like he was waiting to go to the pub in the tunnel and he has played a bit like that as well. I wouldnt change anything, as we don't have that natural sub with Bernard out and I can see Richarlison doing something from up front so I wouldn't want to move him wide as I'm not confident that Kean, DCL or Tosun would have the same effect. I want to see us get at Aurier though so if its still 0-0 with 20-30 minutes to go then I would consider getting Richarlison at him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wiggytop Posted November 3, 2019 Report Share Posted November 3, 2019 We’ve been full of huff and puff with no final product, time for Kean on in the middle and Richarlison our wide, Iwobe has been poor, Theo’s on a card not sure which one I’d take off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

markjazzbassist Posted November 3, 2019 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2019 i like the 433 by the way, i like delph gomes and davies. all can move the ball and all can defend (gomes less so). they can be fluid interchanging too.

Aidan Posted November 3, 2019 Report Share Posted November 3, 2019 We're scared to pass a ball forward in the final third. Get to 442 and get the ball forward into the strikers feet these lot are low on confidence and will be unsettled with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree, (again) it’s compact, strangely though I thought we would dominate the ball with the 3 possession based Cm’s.

The movement from the front three has just been poor This is where Iwobi is letting the side down most. Walcott and Richarlison are more vertical counter attack type players and their movement is more up and down than subtle where as Iwobi is the one that should be getting between the lines more and making himself available. I also think that Davies and Gomes need to step into the space a little quicker, they almost appear a bit hesitant, which isnt unsurprising.

Elston Gunnn Posted November 3, 2019 Report Share Posted November 3, 2019 White and Le Seaux on NBCSN are embarrassed at the play of both teams here, but especially Everton. Wouldn’t care if they were wrong, but they’re mostly right. A goal would change this dull match, preferably one by us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can only think that it is the reason why... It didnt stop him getting to the ball until he flung himself to the ground. Again makes the Keane decision last week more confusing.
