Everton v Aston Villa Match Thread

[PaulWinch again]

Our retention of the ball is atrocious.

[curiousorange]

Seems like neither team is arsed about winning.

[Jimbo]

We're experts at losing the ball.

[Malandro]

fuck me

[Fergal]

Does it look like we are after a draw?

[Jimbo]

At least we're not two-nil down.

[fredm]

This display shows yet again why we need someone who can hold the ball and pass it it a villa player in midfield

[PeterWithesShin]

Anyone know if we are on the wireless for when I get home?

[Matt Collins]

Baines is getting tons of space down the left, which is fairly predictable given the tactics

I think he's a clever enough player to exploit that

[Goldie.7]

Starting Holt is pretty stupid, in a game like this Albrighton should have started

[PaulWinch again]

We need to press the ball a lot better, we have too many players in the wrong part of the pitch.

[Malandro]

Benteke might be a big bugger, but he is better with his feet. Just give him the ball

[TheTimVilla]

Didn't we 'win' a nil nil at West Ham, when they played no forwards, and we had 5 at the back?

[JUAN PABLO]

I thought we would have a go at these

we look so much better when we have a go at the top teams

when we are set up like this , its just so dull.

maybe we will get into it slowly

Seems like Lambert has done his tactical homework and we are nullifying them.
