Everton v Aston Villa Post-Match Thread

[eastie]

We need two players who can win the ball and get it wide or into Charlie.

If they can drop the shoulder and bomb on a bit then great, but lets keep it simple. Which two out of KEA, Sylla, Delph, Bannan, Ireland and Westwood are most likely to offer that at any given time?

For me it would be from westwood, delph, sylla, kea - ireland and bannan not for me.

I thought westwood crossed for gabbys goal?
Granted lowtons cross for benteke was perfect.

I was watching it in the pub and haven't seen MOTD yet, but thought it was Lowton?  Apologies if I'm wrong!

Lowton for Benteke and Westwood for Gabby.

Both excusite crosses.

Lowton for Benteke and Westwood for Gabby.

Both excusite crosses.

And a great one-two between Lowton and Weimann for Benteke's second

In many ways it was every bit as good a goal/move as Benteke's 2nd at Anfield.

You mean Weimann's goal with the back heel from Benteke?

Shit - I'm getting a lot wrong on this thread, aren't I?

May I remind you of the site rules. Excessive factual errors in a single thread are punishable by a lifetime ban.

I consider myself suitably warned.

However, putting 'fact' after a statement automatically makes it true. Fact.

Watching the highlights of this game just now, Johnny Heitinga's performance was as bad as anything from our defenders this season.

We played some excellent stuff in that match, and came away with a point. Disappointing not to hold on for all three, but anyone who can't take positives from that performance is never going to be happy.

Saturday again demonstrated why Aston 'Jekyll and Hyde' Villa are so deep in the EPL do do.  Going forward, there are times when our play is sublime.  As good as anybody in the league.  Defensively we look like a complete basket case.  No composure, no confidence, a complete lack of any semblance of solidity.  Lambert has to talk up the positives post match, but it will ultimately be his failure to address our frailties that will take us down.  Whilst not yet resigned to relegation, like many on here I'm expecting it.

Having a day to cool down.

I would have been over the moon with a draw . I think Weimann was left on to long , Bennett needs to be dropped and please never bring Holman on again , start with Sylla next game instead of KEA and Baker for Clark.

I think we can still get out of it , yes Im mad , I normally see bearded old ladies but SORT THE DEFENCE !!!   please.

It also demonstrated the point that somebody made to me in another thread where I had posted that the end being nigh, that we have the makings of a good team.

Some of the goals we have scored this season have been the best we have seen in years.

I wonder if anyone at AVFC has thought about getting a team psychologist in yet?
