Match Thread: Everton v Villa

We are far too one paced. Start at a stroll, continue at a stroll. Everton get some momento with the crowd behind them. Jesus Villa. Show some energy, attacking aggression and intent. These aren't good but we need to up the bloody tempo!!!

We have scored several goals since Emery took over by playing slowly from the back, sucking the opposition forward and then springing forward with two or three quick passes to a forward player in space because the opposition midfield have been attracted to close us down around our own box.

I mean slow build up play around the box. Passing around the final third side to side leads to nothing.

We've sucked the opposition and no Kenneth Williams to be seen.

Scary stuff again...  We only look dangerous on a counterattack.  Otherwise, we struggle to get the ball out of our own half in possession.  If Everton score first, I really don't see us coming back without a bunch of substitutions.  

I think teams are figuring out how fragile we are playing out the back and will press us into mistakes which will unravel our defense.

I don't get the line up, Luiz and Kamara have the ball but there's no next step. We need Coutinho/Buendia in here for this, McGinn and Ramsey aren't it for how Emery wants to play IMO.

Agree - we definitely need another midfielder in the summer so that we are only playing one of McGinn, Ramsey or Buendia.  Good options from the bench though.

If we wish to push for Europe , our defense need to improve big time .. Cash / Konsa & Ming were bought basically to survive relegation .. 

Konsa and Mings were key in getting promoted.
