    Lingard chance was the best moment of the half for us. A nice quick move from close to our own corner which is when we're at our best. Pogba with the drop of a shoulder creating the space we haven't seen much of.

    Rojo showing signs of his pre injury form great tackle on Niasse


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,843 ✭✭✭GSPfan


    My biggest fear right now is Everton going 1 up at any stage. We don’t look like scoring.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,199 ✭✭✭✭RobbingBandit


    Midtable performance from both teams also rans


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,019 ✭✭✭✭adox


    I think we have done ok. Looked dangerous at times.

    Also s9meone needs to tell the commentator that Martial is a striker. :mad:


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,054 ✭✭✭wanderer100


    Another pretty crap half of football by us :o

    Harsh.

    Also I never took to Morgan at Utd and dislike him more now with this card waving for Jesse.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,019 ✭✭✭✭adox


    I must be the only one so who thinks we have done ok. Certainly a lot better than at any time against Southampton.

    He was supposed to be Carricks replacement but failed miserably to impose himself. Dont think Everton fans have took to him either.

    Its a tired performance from both teams. Even the crowd seem asleep.

    I agree although that Southampton game is a low bar.

    Still feel like we need to move the ball a little faster and be a bit more clinical when Everton do give us some space in the final third to play with.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,689 ✭✭✭sky88


    Weve been ok but its still too slow


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,217 ✭✭✭✭StringerBell


    Poor decision making, the usual. Decent enough performance but nothing to write home about.

    Martial flashing the ball across the 6 yard box and 4 players in the box but nobody moving to the ball stands out, as does Lingard going himself when he could easily have slotted in Martial.

    Too much tippy tappy one pass bull**** in the middle of the pitch but hits a wall when getting to the box. Everton are going to Everton, playing it around in front of them is hardly going to open them up.

    We’ve been slow when Everton have men behind the ball and are set, which is 7nderstanke to a degree. One mans slow is another mans patient play although it has been a bug bear of mine the lack of tempo in our play.
    When Everton have lost the ball high up the pitch we have certainly broke with speed.

    Utd have edged the half. Let’s see what happens in the second. I certainly wouldn’t agree with the comment that “the writings on the wall”

    Fitst 30 minutes we were so static it seems to have picked up a bit final 15 but still too much sloppy play to be honest. Everton have fuk all stand out players but match us for every inch of the pitch.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,217 ✭✭✭✭StringerBell


    Its the leadership thing again imo, nobody to take the game by the scruff of the neck and dictate terms lifting the performance of the players around him.

    Fatigue is only going to become more of a factor as the second half goes on.

    We still look unbalanced, not with the formation per say but the personnel.
    The right hand side for us is more or less none existent from an attacking point of view while our left is nearly overloaded. Lingard drifting from there, Pogba drifting out there, Martial drifting out there and Shaw adding support too.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,199 ✭✭✭✭RobbingBandit


    We need to hit them hard and fast here now come out strong here.

    I thought we have done the same, but we have been sloppy at time with simple passes and haven't maintained any constant pressure on thier defence.
    A few nearly chances so to speak but let down by poor decision making

    Rojo and his delusion of his shooting ability...


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,054 ✭✭✭wanderer100


    There's Rojo's ping of the game out of his system


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,183 ✭✭✭✭pjohnson


    There is Marcos shot per match anyway.

    I've been zerked :'(

    Shaw standing in an acre of space. Ignored, twice.

    Centre backs shooting from 40 yards should be a yellow card offence :pac:


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,054 ✭✭✭wanderer100


    Better start to the half. Mata so close


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,019 ✭✭✭✭adox


    So unlucky from Mata.


  • Posts: 0 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    ugh...........................


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,843 ✭✭✭GSPfan


    I think Mata would be better as our centre forward. Always moving looking for a pass.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,906 ✭✭✭✭PhlegmyMoses


    We are playing some great stuff here. Just need the final ball to be right.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,875 ✭✭✭✭Loafing Oaf


    Another lousy draw on the way here.:(

    Or not...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,199 ✭✭✭✭RobbingBandit


    Ducan Ferguson scary man


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,217 ✭✭✭✭StringerBell


    Better, need to actually take a bloody chance
