Everton (A): Build Up Thread

[RichC]

He certainly wasn't the worst on the pitch and IMO wasn't that poor.

As a side we just weren't good enough on the day especially with them waltzing through our midfield

He returned the favour and waltzed past a couple of their players at one stage.

Getting his instructions

[RedReet]

Was it last year Mirallas tortured us or the year before?

He was also out of position constantly and offered very little.

Red rum = rodolfo borrell

Sorry about your job but if we win the league I'll buy you a few drinks

As did the midfield.

Good luck, RedRum.

[Mattshark]

As did the midfield.

Yes, but they have shown they can offer more, Flannagan hasn't, if his standard of play is considered acceptable we'll have problems. He is a championship level player.

How many times besides the goals when a lot of players were at fault?

I don't think he had the greatest if games, but considering the pressure he was under coming into a big game at such short notice, I don't think he did that bad and certainly have no issues seeing him line up again.

His standard in the first few games he played for us and in pre-season this year is more than acceptable.

I do. I am seriously uncomfortable with him playing tomorrow.

I beg to differ, sorry.

This is a very solid Everton team. I reckon this a home win. Do these Everton players never get injured?

[danperkins]

Flanagan is starting would be a big worry, not good enough and IMO never will be. The derby away from home with key players not fully fit & weaknesses on either defensive side..... not confident about this. Everton have only been beaten once at home in the last 20 months. A draw would be a great result but i reckon we'll get beat

[ronanm]

He was solid against Arsenal

Solid as a wet ****e. Anytime he was involved in a move it broke down.
