Don’t think Conor has been bad per se, but if we had a genuine creative gem in there instead of him like a Cherki we would look SO much more dangerous. We look so neat and tidy between the lines and in the buildup but then we look dead in the final third. We need a creative spark badly.

This is the worst opposition we’ll play in the league this season and other than high possession stats we didn’t trouble them nearly enough.

I am in for Cherki

Meh...

My mind is already on Wimbledon knowing full well Luton will get an equaliser this second half.

People on here have the resilience of a spoilt rich kid from Orange County who couldn't get their pumpkin spice latte and have acted like their days ruined. 

Don't let the door hit you in the back. 👋

You treat this billionaire club as a championship side. I strongly suspect you have the clubs confused: they are both blue, but Everton is a different club.

I am feeling the same sadly. Absolutely disgusted.

(assuming António Silva, who I REALLY want, is too expensive)

Silva is contracted until 2027 with a €100m release clause, which Benfica will not compromise on

Even if we had the money right now, were fucking stuck with Disasi and Fofana.

Seriously? The football is dire.

If they showed some enthusiasm and passion and tried to play forward it would be appreciated.

Go 1-0 up and sit back = 99% chance of conceding.

It's a cancer at our club and it needs to be stamped out.

100m does not seem impossible for us tho. We spent more on Caicedo who looks an absolute joke at this point .

if we really need one more top class CB, he could be a candidate. 

[robsblubot 3,544]

Things Poch can actually do for the second, IMO:
1. take one of the CMs out put any attacking play he's got avail

2. Ask Jackson to not drop back so much, so we can try to keep the game more in their half

Lose one of the CBs if he has trained that option?

You're not from Orange County in the USA by chance are you rob?

Mudryk in the Second half. 

you do realise he is injured?

[Stats 7,060]

Happy with Sterling and score although should be more but not happy with system. Looks slightly negative. We don't need 3 at the back. Sometimes Sterling and Jackson look like a 2 man attack when they could do with another winger up there. Hopefully a second comes early before the nerves kick in.

[lluubbeenn 155]

You are crazy. Most of the players on the pitch know each other for a month or two. What do you expect? Prime city? Prime Barca? And on top of that we have NINE injuries. Only thing that matters is the win today. Keep your feet on the ground and the blue flag flying high!

[Vesper 29,076]

I do not like a back 5

especially against a shit team

[Pizy 18,453]

Btw, this is the match where Nkunku’s absence is most keenly felt so far. He would be amazing in this sort of match.

Depressing that he got injured when he did. He and Sterling in this form on opposite sides would wreak havoc.

I'm Brazilian buddy. Been watching this game before you were born. 😉 You said you were going away tho. 

[robsblubot 3,544]

Nothing happened on the left; no play no crosses nothing. Wonder why....
