Jim Smith 2,314 Posted June 24, 2020 So far so reasonably good. I wish we’d had this solidity in a few more games earlier in the season. That said I think we will need to make changes before we create a lot. perhaps the plan is to go for it with the attacking players once they wilt in the heat.

king canary 7,580 Posted June 24, 2020 Duda is woeful at set pieces. Solid and compact so far, back to basics sort of performance. Everton not trying to mirror Southampton though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They don’t seem to be busting a gut for him in either matches I'm sure the fact it's 28 degrees out there has more to do with any lack of desire you might think your witnessing. I don't think Farke has lost it at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They did for the first 10mins or so but with the extra man in midfield compared to last game, they’ve had less progress that way and we’ve slowly grown into the game and pushed them deeper 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HertsCanary93 222 Posted June 24, 2020 It's been a decent start. I've been a big fan of Tettey this season, very disciplined defensively - I think he would have made a difference against Southampton. Certainly reduces the overload opportunities. Hernandez too has looked promising. We really miss a player who can take players on and break with a bit of pace.

Drazen Muzinic 1,444 Posted June 24, 2020 Much better tonight. Onel and Rupp the pick so far. A shame we can't really make it happen. I think an understandable lack of confidence is telling. We've been in good positions high up the pitch but ended up back with Krul after a few passes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Upo 91 Posted June 24, 2020 5 substitutes. We've got 3/3 best players on the bench. Hungry players on the field. This is playing with high risk. But stakes are higher and last game was crap. I like it. I like the options. I like Everton's defenders being tested and worn a bit and us having the option to switch Pukki, Buendia and Cantwell in during 2nd half. This is unpredictable for the opponent who were expecting the usual Pukki from the start. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Indy 3,286 Posted June 24, 2020 Tettey the difference, just need Cantwell central with Buendia & Hernandez each side. Not convinced by Drmic or Duda, very poor. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dylanisabaddog 4,877 Posted June 24, 2020 With a full house Everton would have 2 or 3 yellows by now. Foul on Duda was a clear booking Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
robertociNCFC 98 Posted June 24, 2020 (edited) Not bad so far, just the attack letting us down at the moment, Tettey is a game changer Edited June 24, 2020 by robertociNCFC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Exactly that, comfortable on the ball, but his delivery, free kick and work rate just not there. Hopefully he can get more into the game. Hernandez and Tettey have been superb.

Vrancic is better with play in front of him so he can see the pass. He’s not a no10. The question is why isn’t he in instead of McLean. However we’ve been solid so far with the option to add attacking intent later (hopefully) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
