Don't play Barry against man city it's like playing with 10 men when this guy plays in fact don't ever play him agai.n get him out of club contributes nothing.

barbaramurray1967159d ago

Yes i agree. Anybody but Barry up front. Give that young striker a chance. Against city Give him some experience.

You'd like to think Beto will be back in time for Monday. If not, who would you have up front instead of Barry?

We need john stones and a good fast left back at the moment our back line is to sluggish

barbaramurray1967158d ago

Sorry no we don't need John Stones back. He's to old injury prone and not the same player. We need younger players in our squad not OAP.l like John Stones. We need to stop relying on older players who used to play for us.

As for John stones as good a player he is he. Is too slow.

ajmiller17th160d ago

Forget Stones, he not worth it anymore but given Moyes loves the golden oldies, he will probably go after him.

Play George upfront if he gets onto a nice pass good chance goal

ajmiller17th160d ago

Go 4 4 2 and get Alcaraz and George paired up as strikers, we know Charly can finish well

Hopefully Beto is back for City and then it leaves no decision to be made

Do you share David Moyes' concerns about Everton's recent vulnerability defending set-pieces? 🤔

The Toffees have now conceded in back-to-back games to Virgil van Dijk and Tomas Soucek...

dantowen81951155d ago

The wierd thing is, you’d think Everton would have enough big physical players for this not to be an issue

ajmiller17th160d ago

Yes, but if he that concerned why play centre backs as full backs instead of full backs as full backs to defend set pieces??

davibush160d ago

Pickford needs to challenge the cross. He's over 6 foot, , can jump and use his arms! He hangs back too much .

If an Everton player accidentally hand balls in the area its always a penalty to the other team. ALWAYS

ajmiller17th159d ago

Even when it isn't a handball at all on occasion

We’ve already seen that this season. Tarkowski had his hand by his side against Leeds and it was still a penalty

Never thought I'd be saying this so soon but Moyes is a major concern now. His squad and team selection, substitutions and game management were baffling to put it nicely! Barry should never have been in the squad let alone the team and then 90mins? Then the switches in positions and subs? A game to rest the usuals and give game time to our "Inexperienced"!!!

rhsmyth160d ago

Totally agree moysey stuck in the past. illogical selections and subs ! Not using his squad destroying them sticking them on the bench every week must be wishing they never signed i bet ! farcical and incompetence !

♥ 1

robi161d ago

Problem is who do you realistically play instead of Barry? He's the only other first choice striker. Graham nowhere near ready yet. Maybe George? Ndiaye? Keane? I don't think Moyes had many options to be fair. I do think Barry will be off in the Summer though.

Why has it taken this long for Everton to complain? 🤷‍♂️

The club have FINALLY had enough... 😡

alantelfer56158d ago

Think both penalty shouts should have been given. Picfords was dangerous and should have been. He's got a habit of doing that. Hope don't at world cup defo be given a red, might not be there long enough to serve 3 game ban. Agree everton not had the rub of the green over the season.

barbaramurray1967159d ago

For me everton fc are to soft not to complain about referees to the fa. All other clubs do it so why not us. It's the same with the players when a decision goes against us hardly any off off players moan to these referees..

I am 71 years old and have supported everton since I was a boy and I have never seen such a useless striker he run about like a headless chicken

mark333stevens141d ago

I mean there's trivial and then there's this. Another sub basement level of curiosity. Angus was referring to new signings. Single figure goal returns are unacceptable for a CF. Beggars can't be choosers. Thankfully this can be reversed

Why don't everton take and stand against the FA. Again today another decision that these bies referees didn't give us..sorry get rid off var. The referee and var didn't see it. And yet all off us watching it seen it. Can't wait to see dermot Gallagher answer on Monday sky sports. Or excuses.

robur1162d ago

Probably say no to the penalty like he's done with others all season, if we were at the bottom it would be different .

pwhak88162d ago

If we stopped attending every ground, and made our reasons vocal, maybe the freidkins would press charges. But we would have to have a clear understanding statistically of our bias so we can make it plain in our protest.

ajmiller17th162d ago

Heard FA made statement about it saying that he did touch the ball but he didn't mean it, hence no penalty 😲 Because every other handball that has ever been given was 100% deliberate, right?? The FA, refs, VAR totally anti Everton, makes me think PL is totally fixed - FA probably don't want Everton in Europe for some dodgy, most likely corrupt reason.

Sorry it's about time everton fc took a stand against the FA. It's an absolutely joke the way everton don't stand up against the FA and referees decisions. Something has to be done about this situation. These referees in the Premier league are the worst I've seen.

ajmiller17th162d ago

Have done in past and gotten threatened with sanctions by the FA, another points deduction probs, so Moyes and players got to be careful what they say. Speaking up doesn't change anything because refs decision is final. So what would be the point???

brogan162d ago

Other clubs have said something and yet we seem to just accept it. Moyes will comment on it in his press conferences, but the club need to make a statement

In even the most mundane leagues in the world That, was a clear penalty! Of course it can't be given because of an obvious choice from the worst ref in the league choosing down instead of getting it right. How many fouls against is were simply not called today? A Dozen???It's deplorable and I excusable! UGH

barbaramurray1967162d ago

ffOYes the referees and the FA .definitely have an vendetta against our club. And VAR. Definitely a penalty. If that was Liverpool or Manchester United or Manchester City Chelsea arsenal. That penalty would had been definitely given. No doubt. I just hope everton write to the FA and make an complaint

Definitely a penalty. How can that be accidental. Typically referees give one decision to one team and another to another team. Bies or what. Disgusting decision not to give everton a definitely penalty.

Will Everton qualify for Europe? 🤔👇

cheet57161d ago

Not this season, we need better players for europe, and Moyes as got to start rotating the team, Dibling sat on the bench, how is he supposed to get better sat there? Same with Alcaraz, George, Rohl, and Patterson, even brought Armstrong back from Preston (were he was helping them to promotion) Now he's sat on the bench, why? But insists on playing Barry ffs

Officialdom didn't help because there is no doubt it should have been penalty, but there was some indifferent defending from the Toffees which to the Hammers' goals.

Westham are a good team and we're desperate for the points we played well in front of a hostile crowd it takes a couple of seasons to build a good team I have been a supporter since 1965 look how long it took for Alex ferguson to build a team

What would your message to Moyes be over starting Thierno Barry vs West Ham? 🫣

Beto misses the game through concussion. 🤕

waltonl4162d ago

With not having Beto today and then starting Barry, I just can't see us winning, it will be like having 10 men and West Ham will be going all out after the Forest game last night, as they need the win more than us now! Fulham beat Villa 1-0, so a win for us would be massive!!

waltonl4162d ago

After Barry's pathetic 'display' in the Derby match, he'd be the last player to get a start! He was lazy, with a bad attitude and it means playing with 10 men basically! I would love to be wrong on this of course, but unless Barry puts 100% into this game, I can't see how we can win it? We need ALL 11 players giving everything today!!

lfitzsimmons256163d ago

No he's lazy play get the young kid in knows we're the net 🥅 is start him . U be proved wrong the kid a Micheal Owen . Barry's an under 7 striker 👌🙏

davemount17163d ago

I think leave Barry out and play Alcaraz as a false nine. Can control the ball and bring others into play. Forget Barry. Take the hit and get rid. Not good enough
