Everton vs. Crystal Palace match thread

[DenTyler]

Lerma looks so comfortable at the back.

 

[JRW2]

Were we not dreading conceding to a set piece?

Centre back scorer; Centre back assist.

Still am.

 

[BromleyMonkey]

Oh good. Madley is the ref. I’d feel safer with Richard Madley 🫣

As the young lady who sits near us calls him….Fucking Madley!!!

 

[Jimmy Doyle]

We're getting close to scoring a second.

 

[Hannes]

Wharton looking much improved and whole 11 more like a unit - at least for the first 30 min.

the boys playing some decent stuff.

Gradually beginning to bed in and gel together - some lovely little touches going on. Surprised to see Kamada knock over one of their 'big' guys - must be more to him than shows...

 

[Eaglehamster]

Hope they can maintain there superiority....
Do we have our mojo back? Another just before half time would be very agreeable...

And well deserved.

We're looking a lot more like the team that finished last season so well.

 

[Rogers the legend]

Why are our fullbacks getting into wide open spaces and then going backwards and inwards all the time? It's like they are scared to go forward once they have the ball!

 

[Phil’s Barber]

Playing well, Everton look out of sorts.
Should’ve perhaps been 2-0 up and that tackle on Mateta by Tarkowski is a foul anywhere else on the pitch.
If only Mitchell could cross a ball as he’s been well placed a number of times.

 

[Vespa GS cpfc 007]

Is it me or is Mitchell having a nightmare?

 

[Charles]

Hope we don't end up ruing not getting the second goal we got so close to. Can Everto be so poor both halves? Or is calling them poor being unfair to Palace who are outclassing them?

We're looking much better; Lacrioix and Kamada finding their feet; we're moving the ball fast. Mateta's getting more involved

 

[wizlon]

Is it me or is Mitchell having a nightmare?

His passing has been arse.

 

[dreamwaverider]

Mare alright. He's forgotten how to attack.

Everton have been poor but we’ve dominated them to prevent them getting a foothold in the game.

 

[edskan]

Shearer and Given both saying that the foul on Mateta was a stonewall penalty.

Definitely off his game for me also but not a total nightmare. Shows how badly we need an alternative out there though.
