Everton 0-0 Liverpool: In game and Post Match discussion

After a shaky first few minutes, we took control of the game but lacking a cutting edge going forward. Very passive at times.

Need Keita on the ball more, he looks the one who's going to turn, beat a man and drive forward.

Need better end product second half.

Poor half. Couple of half chances but decision making hasn’t been good enough. Far too much side to side and backwards passing, we’ve had a lot of the ball but posed very little threat.

Far too casual so far.

That was a half to forget, got to be a better second. 🤞

Naive from Mane not to throw a few rolls in there after that tackle

We are Liverpool. This is different.

Thought our football got better as the half wore on - started to see some of those quick triangles and pulling their defence around.

But no real danger for Pickford.

Matip should have headed his chance at goal and Trent could have done better with that free kick.

Back to the car park

That porta-cabin's probably luxury compared to the Goodison dressing rooms.

Boring pre-season friendly... 

Weird game. Almost feels like the players know it doesn't matter. Empty game.

But we did turn it up in the final 5 minutes. Must get better in the 2nd half.

He just needs to play a bit deeper, he’s spent much of the game ahead of Firmino but his best work is always from deeper in the pitch

Naby has looked good. Other then that, slow game but it's understandable.

Could really use the energy of Ox and Salah

Of all the players to go off with a hamstring problem in our first game back, would never have thought it would be Milner.

Old age doesn’t come alone !

Absolutely no threat behind them at the moment. Not sure about taki and Bobby in the same team at the moment

Keita looks bright and positive very slow and laboured maybe just easing our way back in need to up it second half

Slow first half, controlled a lot of thw ball but never really done much with it. A lot of sloppy passing and loose dribbling in the final third. Sharpen things up in second half I can see the chances to flow a bit more.

Tim Cahill is the most optimistic Everton fan ever

I see you passed the match thread crown to JD, god love him he tried but he lacks your enthusiasm. 🤪😉

Nope I won't, will fight for it hard

We have rust and we're short of match fitness obviously, mostly evident with Trent. Keita is playing very well and even Matip.

We'll be fine, we need Mo or Origi though, I like Minamino but he's no good on the wing.

Need Salah on at some point if hes fit. Minamino been tidy but we're very nice to play against at the minute with him and Firmino looking for the ball.

The derby at Goodison has to be the lowest scoring fixture in the league

Love to see a mid carry the ball thru the line freeing up a wing pass. Klopp doesn’t give to much liberty to this group.

Can see Ancellotti telling them they’ve done well to contain us, keep it up lads.
More 50yard’d balls over the top and we might get on the end of one.


While Klopp will be reassessing, juggling, repositioning and changing tactics to tear them a new one !


Come on you reds. Up the tempo, calm heads fast feet.
Let’s get into them now we’ve warmed up 💪

Mino and Bobby are playing the same role, we need more width and speed to get in behind Bitters back line.

Mo will make a huge difference if he comes on.
