Everton (H) - 30/8 - Build-up and match thread

Who do we have that hypothetically you could build a decent Premier team around? Anyone?

2 midfielders and then it’s a head scratcher.

Obviously we have issues up front but for me the biggest worry is our defence, how have we gone from being organised and fairly solid over the second half of last season to being so bad.

Are these the midfielders we bypass? I despair at how bad we've become. That's Chinese owners for you!

I think a narrow defeat flattered us tbh. Goal from nowhere in the first half, AND we looked decent the last 20 minutes after the subs but the better team by some distance won the game.

Less down about things than I was this time last week so there is that.

Well.....jaoa was awful today, as were agbadoo and toti.
Lopez, bellegarde and rodrigo stood out after coming on and showed well.
Sasa got some great knockdowns.
Thought santi was steady if not spectacular, but my mom could probobally defend better than hugo, he shows them the outside then wanders off when they take it.

Andre and Joao. After that? Fuck all.
Unless we are being sold as per rumours from the cesspit, under this ownership and management structure, we're down and not coming back easily.

Verdict thread open.
