  • Yes, there was a few empty seats only 1 side though, the delay in seats filling up after half time is down to probably queuing for food & drink and not being able to take your pint to your seat, which is absolutely ridiculous.rnrnFellas swigging 2 pints in the 15 minute half time is more cause for concern than being able to drink it in your own time in your seat. ...
    David West in David Moyes hails Maitland-Niles goal as ‘big moment’ for Everton after late Man Utd drama
  • Tony @ 6, the ball that Barry put over the bar came off too high on his forehead, you could argue that the cross was too high for him to jump high enough or he misjudged it and didn\'t try to jump high enough. I think it was slightly too high. Sorry mate we never seem to agree these days.rnrnThis is not aimed at you Tony, the criticism of Rohl not being a full back is fair enough, but it takes a very special player to both defend and also get up field to cross the ball into the middle, they are trying to do two jobs. If the team lose the ball when your upfield and the opposition attack quickly your bound to be struggling to get back.rnrnI like Rohl a lot, and he strikes me as a player who will keep improving, I think midfield is his position but we are very well stocked there just know....

    Tom Bowers in David Moyes hails Maitland-Niles goal as ‘big moment’ for Everton after late Man Utd drama
  • By exiting Beto, Gana, McNeil and Tim and replacing with Hackney, Armstrong, Grealish and George we have a midfiled and wide players comfortable recieving the ball in tight spaces. I noticed this especially when we press and transition the ball in tight areas in their half of the pitch. It means that we will retain the ball in dangerous areas. Plus we battle for the ball with confidence higher up the pitch rather than falling back too deep every time we lost the ball. I also noticed that we were overlapping and getting in behind their full backs a lot more. These patterns of play will build more as they train together and play together. There is a bright future for this group of players....
