Our passing is ok, we created chances but we lack sharpness to convert them. Their pen was not a pen, Keane was unlucky with the own goal. Its not that bad for a second pre season game.

Btay Posted July 21, 2022 Report Share Posted July 21, 2022 Lampard needs to find his CB pairing and play them together for next 2 matches. It will be tarkowski but who ever is going partner him or if it’s going to be a 3 they need to start playing together.

Romey 1878 Posted July 21, 2022 Report Share Posted July 21, 2022 An actual defensive midfielder needs to be a priority signing. I'd blow every single penny we have this summer on a decent one. Teams, even poor ones, walk right through the middle of us. It's the easiest thing in the world to do because there is never anyone there to shut them down. Davies and Doucoure are probably the worst combination we could have there too - Davies has no physicality or athleticism and doesn't have a fucking Scooby Doo what's going on around him, while Doucoure has the athleticism he also thinks he's an attacking midfielder and bombs up the pitch and forgets that he's shite in possession and will lose the ball and is then massively out of position. plaidharper and dunlopp9987 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dunlopp9987 Posted July 21, 2022 Report Share Posted July 21, 2022 Well being at that game was like a wet fart. Gbamin is surprisingly agile and good in possession despite his size. Niels needs to stay as far away from the first team as possible, King Yerald is still the king of shithousery, and this is going to be a long, difficult season plaidharper 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't want you to miss the opportunity of knowing exactly what it's like to watch us play in person. The unfortunate thing is I was at Goodison in 2015 when we drew City 1-1, and the place was rocking. So I have experience of being present when the team actually played decent football. Tonight's second half was against MNUFC's rotation squad and we still looked completely inept. And the Everton turnout was surprisingly impressive. Honestly the most worrying thing I saw tonight was I could see how Frank wants this team to play, we just don't have the players to do so. And we aren't going to have the money to bring in enough guys to change that. So either Frank will try and make his style work come hell or high water and then eventually resign or get sacked, or we're back to playing the way we did at the end of the season to avoid relegation.

milesey05 Posted July 21, 2022 Report Share Posted July 21, 2022 Glad in a way we didn't go out and win 4-0. Injured players coming back and doing well could have changed Franks ideas to what is needed next season. On last nights performance- So many new faces are needed, i'm not looking forward to next season if signings are not made. patto 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RuffRob Posted July 21, 2022 Report Share Posted July 21, 2022 Can't look in much in to a glorified training game. Minnesota at mid season so in full swing - we are three weeks in to pre-season. To me the result gives Lampard a little more ammunition to push for the new signings to be done ASAP and brought in to the squad. Plenty of work to be done - but think we all knew this anyway.

London Blue Posted July 21, 2022 Report Share Posted July 21, 2022 Once we have a settled 15 man squad, with a chosen back line and midfield, hopefully with 2 additions then we will be much better. We do need a striker though, Rondon is not going to be in any way useful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trigger Posted July 21, 2022 Report Share Posted July 21, 2022 Didn't stay up to watch this one..... Very glad I didn't! I know these are friendlies, but you'd expect to see some evidence of a change due to training for a new season, revised tactics etc. To me there is no change at all and the same players not learning, changing or improving anything at all. Same approach and mistakes with same results. There us A LOT of dead wood to move on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many more years are we going to be saying those words. For me there are no excuses for any PL team to be beaten 4-0 by Minnesota. What a shit fest we’ve got to look forward to this season, with Richarlison gone it’s going to be worse than the last. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

London Blue Posted July 21, 2022 Report Share Posted July 21, 2022 We are just two games into a pre-season with only 1 signing, we have time, a kick in the arse this early is a good thing, will shake out complacency and focus the mind on the boards mind on signings.
