Gordon fucks that. Such a poor ball to Miggy. He either needs to take the shot himself or do much better laying it on a plate for Almiron or Bruno.

Yearning for the days 20 years in the past where I didn't see or hear the words FFP a hundred times a day. It's gone from being an interesting curiosity to an infuriating obstacle and now I've just become numb to it all.

The away performances this season have almost been relegation worthy.

Hmmmmm

4th and even 5th spot looks tougher with every week that goes by. Ofcourse that could change in January with some new signings but unlike last season I'm leaning towards thinking perhaps this is the year to go for the domestic cups fully and just be content with Europa League next year.

But they wouldn't. Bruno is desperate to play further upfield and Philips best position is as a CDM, so I think it would work perfectly. Philips would 100% need time to bed into the team though

Villa gonna win the league at this rate.

Ten Haag sacked before Christmas. Got to be close now.

Blatant shirt pull on Lascelles there to stop him from jumping. Crazy how often players do that and get away it when it's so clear to VAR. You can kind of forgive the ref not seeing it but if Everton score from that you'd not be happy.

If we somehow come away without conceding a goal here I'll be shocked.

They've only conceded the same amount as Villa. They aren't that bad defensively.

I don't think they're even pressing really, maybe DCL and McNeil arw a litrle. They just seem to be blocking up the middle of the pitch and dropping deep. They can certainly do that for 90mins no doubt.

If we play like this against Spurs it's going to be us on the wrong end of 5 goals in 20 minutes this time.

Tindall needs to up his game then. Fight fire with fire.

Ref couldn't wait to get that HT whistle blown. Both teams and the ref have been poor. Let's have something better second half.

Call me cynical but Pickford looks like he goes for Gordon there whilst clearing that ball.

We had the ball didn't we? What's going on with that.

Thats more of a penalty than some you get seen given. Schar getting dragged to the floor. That's the kind of penalty England get given against Moldova or someone.

Just how Everton like it

Risky though, they could be 2 up already. We've barely had a chance really. One from Isak and that's it.

Could easily concede from one of these shitty free kicks. Burn is a big miss for this game.

We're so static when we get the ball. Don't know if that's what How's asked them to do but it's unusually slow from us so far.

Wow. Big let off.

Commentator saying good play from Young when it was a perfect challenge from Tino. What an idiot.

Why the fuck did he do that. He'll be feeling that for the rest of the week.
