Everton vs Aston Villa Match Thread

Great save Martinez. We've given Everton a lift by poor defending for their goal. Our defending has been very poor of late. Keep giving opponents a boost.

Barclay was poor for the goal but why is their best header of a ball being marked by Barclay in the first place?

Maybe that's another clause in the loan contract.

[Drummond]

Well he's up again.. Fingers crossed for him.

Barkley shying out of tackle on edge of our box,pathetic

Barkley pointless.

Rubbish. Barkley started this game well  for god sake get behind him rather than criticise

He fucked up for their goal, he'll know that as much as anyone.

[Drummond]

Entertaining game so far.

[Risso]

What the fuck was that Ross? Useless.

[Ads]

That was close! They look a shambles at the back.

Barkley is not great and anyone who says get behind him has never played the game at any sort of level as I would hate to have him in my midfield as a centre back. He is a grifter and can’t wait till he is sent packing back down south. Compare and contrast him with Watkins, different planets.

[Bobby Boy]

What a waste of a free kick. Just get it in the mixer.

This is the best we've played for some time to this point.

I’d a laughed if he scored then!

[Lastfootstamper]

Hope Matt will be OK. Otherwise....

Looked fairly innocuous. He'll limp through, scan Tuesday, be back around October.

[Toronto Villa]

Close Traore. Clever play and nice ball from SJM

[paul_e]

Watkins has Holgate on toast, Pickford has kept them in the game.

[jwarry]

Pickford keeping them in this

[Drummond]

Good and cheeky effort from Traore that!
