    With all the talent we look lost on the edge of the box! Very frustrating

    You just know they'll ride this pressure out, and nick a goal from a corner or crossed free.

    Soldados movement in the box is awful. He's just standing still waiting or the ball to arrive to him.

    Spurs looked well on top the first half hour. They should have scored. Everton right back in it

    Soldado is very static so far. Hard job as there's very little support, it's gonna have to be an intricate pass, eye of the needle stuff.

    Lennon hasn't been in the game at all. Surely we should be going down that side more, with Baines playing well on the left.

    Jan has been very dangerous down the left, same can't be said for Lennon.

    Gee if Defoe was playing like Soldado he'd be lynched at this stage.

    The way we have controlled the game we should be ahead, but look toothless in the final 3rd as has been the case all season. I fear a different Everton in the second half.

    Forgot to mention was a stonewall penalty.

    AVB needs to either reverse the inverted wingers or bring on Siggy for Lennon

    Been very impressed with Townsend of late, but one major criticism I have of him is that he never seems to get into dangerous situations. In years gone by we'd often see Lennon and Bale beating the defender and approaching the goal along the end line, or finding themselves in great positions to shoot, but I haven't seen Townsend getting himself into those positions much. Not only is he lacking goals, but he's also lacking goal opportunities. That said, we don't don't seem to have any of those type of players atm, for one reason or another. We're dominating possession, and we're always attacking the opposition, but the chances are just not coming. I don't think we've had one clear chance in this game yet.

    There's a lot more to Soldado's game than just scoring, whereas Defoe is a (very good) one trick pony, when on form.

    Can't disagree with that statement, but today he just looks lazy. I think he made one run which Townsend didn't play. He's getting annoyed the way Berbatov used to.

    Aye, starting to remind me a bit of Robbie with all the arm-waving. He is devoid of decent service however, which is his only defence.

    True, Soldado is leading the line AND MANAGING TO STAY ONSIDE TOO! There is nobody using the space behind him, Holtby & Paulinho not doing enough in the final third.

    Soldado has made so many quality runs in the first half but has not been picked out once!

    Odd that. Surely Lloris has to come off after a potential head injury? Fair play to him for wanting to stay on though.

    Very poor form from the Everton fans, no empathy for the injury. They'll get their added time.
