Bailey Posted October 1, 2022 Report Share Posted October 1, 2022 I think both players off are the right ones. Gordon's pace will be an asset on the counter. Onana wasnt really in the game though not sure Davies is the one. Would have rather had the legs of Doucoure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bailey Posted October 1, 2022 Report Share Posted October 1, 2022 We made it! A really important 3 points on the road. The performance still has a long way to go but who cares, we need as many points as we can get before the World Cup break.

Aidan Posted October 1, 2022 Report Share Posted October 1, 2022 The referee was fucking abysmal today what a shameful display. That being said 3 points on the road is a rarity for us so I'm happy overall, despite not a very good performance.

Matt Posted October 1, 2022 Report Share Posted October 1, 2022 8 mins of injury time and the feed cut out at 89 mins. A bit more nervy of a finish but a competent game overall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

badaids Posted October 1, 2022 Report Share Posted October 1, 2022 Only saw the last 30 minutes which were horrible, niggly, and we looked like we had taken our foot right of the gas. No idea how we managed to get the points from that snapshot, but what a result. chicagoblue 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wiggytop Posted October 1, 2022 Report Share Posted October 1, 2022 Listen to the game on the club feed, bloody hell, Darren and Diamond really make me nervous listening to their commentary, they made it sound like we were going to concede for the last 25 mins. Clearly not a great game, but an important 3 points and another game unbeaten. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Posted October 1, 2022 Report Share Posted October 1, 2022 15 minutes ago, RPG said: Neither team played particularly well and we will need a marked improvement if we are going to get anything from the next 2 games. That said, it's 3 points, we are mid table, we have won the last 2 games and are unbeaten in 6 so definite signs of progress. I disagree. I think defence was very good, Pickford did what he needed and actually distributed well today and the midfield was solid in our half. As soon as we went across into that final 3rd though, we were clueless. I know I expertly tricked McNeil into scoring, but he was rubbish goal aside. DG too was rubbish, but he was at least trying and making somethings happen. Maupay was hung out to dry by us and the Ref, but was a constant pain in the ass. I do like him.

Romey 1878 Posted October 1, 2022 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2022 I thought for most of the game we showed a lot of positivity in possession. Some of our football really was lovely to watch - our midfield is functioning so much better with the ball now. Our problem was that we massively let ourselves down in the final third - we looked a bit lost in that regard. We have to be better and more confident when we get near goal, but I saw enough there to know we're working on our attacking play and we will get better in that regard. It was really pleasing to see how well we responded to going behind in comparison to last season at St Mary's. Like today, we dominated the play and then when we found ourselves a goal down we collapsed. Today was different - we were the better side, conceded (a very poor goal as well by the way - sloppy from Gueye and then we stood off their players and let them do what they wanted) but didn't let ours heads drop and instantly equalised and then quickly got ourselves in front in the game. We're made of stronger stuff this season. Where we did let ourselves down was that upon finding ourselves in the lead we went to bits and lost all control in the game and it was very nervous from that point on. It's three points though, and three points away from home which we've found hard to come by in recent seasons. RuffRob 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RuffRob Posted October 1, 2022 Report Share Posted October 1, 2022 Places like Southampton are where maybe we think we should be able to go to and really realistically try and nick a point of three. We bossed the first half without really creating a great deal, then responded brilliantly to going a goal down. Once we got our noses ahead we then defended the lead away from home and got the result. This is so so different to us last season Plenty to be positive about.

Spoon Posted October 2, 2022 Report Share Posted October 2, 2022 Great win, but it is obvious that there is still a long way to go to get to where we want to be. We lost the ball cheaply alot and the last 20mins was so nerve wracking (this is the everton way though) Still 3 points is what matters and we are undefeated in 6 games which is way better than last year.

We’ve got the second best defence in the league. Our leading striker is due back in the next weeks. Combinations are going to get better all over the park. Not the best performance over 90 mins today but we are a hard team to beat now. Good couple of tests coming up in the next few games and hopefully we can rise to the challenge.

Palfy Posted October 2, 2022 Report Share Posted October 2, 2022 It wasn’t long ago we were going to places like Southampton after win’s against Utd, Chelsea, or Arsenal and getting our arses handed back to us. So no criticism on our win from me, away from home come back from 1-0 down to win, great progress has been made today after only 8 games from a season were we nearly got relegated.
