TheGunnShow 5,932 Posted September 21, 2021 Wait, do these go to extra time or straight to penalties? Only asking as it's 2-2 between QPR and Everton so if it stays that way and it goes to extra time, more fatigue for them... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We're playing against a complete second/third string Liverpool, with 16 year old debutants, and *still* aren't competitive. It's shocking. Sell your talisman, and this is what happens. The players relied on Emi Buendia last season, and nobody we've brought in is capable of carrying and dragging the team through games like him. We won the league last season because we had a player who was head and shoulders better than any other player in that league. It was essentially like Celtic when they had Henrik Larsson. We're lost and the reason is obvious. Just like Barcelona are lost without Messi. Edited September 21, 2021 by TeemuVanBasten Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tetteys Jig 830 Posted September 21, 2021 Really don't get the hype around Idah... not moved on from "hot prospect" in the last 3 years. Runs around like a lost little boy and doesn't score goals. I really think he'd have been better to go out on loan and get regular game time somewhere as he's nowhere near ready for the prem yet. Needs to grow and get regular game time in men's football. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

On this showing, the entire Everton squad could do back to back ultra marathons on Friday and we'd still lose 3-0 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

norfolkbroadslim 223 Posted September 21, 2021 This is just dire. Defensive coaching and tactics isn't just bad, it's inept. Farke and his coaches are way out of their depth. Even Wycombe, yes bl00dy Wycombe are making a better fist of things at the Etihad than we didn't! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
