Bournemouth v Everton

[Robber Rodwell]

Another 90 minutes of life being wasted watching this soulless display.  This is anti-football at it's finest.

Let's get a competent striker before we blame the manager. Can't polish a turd

Won't make an difference if you have 8 defensive players behind him. He's playing a system set up not to lose. As opposed to scoring and winning

A decent striker won't make a difference if he's playing with 8 defensive team-mates and the other two are on the halfway line. 

[Bluedylan]

We're not even that defensively secure.

[Faceatthefence]

No tackles no urgency ,who the fuck has coached that out of this lot.

[cantoffee]

Let's put it this way - other than Callum Wilson being better than DCL is there a position on the field that Bournemouth actually have better players than us?

I don't think so, but with the players we are playing we won't create a thing.

As someone said, maybe the plan is keep it tight and bring on fresh legs in attack to push them in the last 15-20 minutes.

Let's try and get some players around the striker we already have instead of them being camped in their own half and not being able to get close to him.

The one time we've got in behind we had one player in the box.

[Waltzer]

Vlasic, lookman, Sandro.

Gives you a glimpse into his mentality when these players aren't on the bench, but two centre halves are.

He did an interview on sky saying lots of players aren't giving what they should in training, if they don't deserve a spot in the team then so be it, I'd rather have it that way than pander to people, I expect he'd like to have more attacking options

[brap2]

Not watching. Another Big Sam masterclass is it?

[Ross]

And in contrast, when they go forward they take 5+ to the 18yd box. This is crap.

Mission impossible for any forward we buy and the teams set up like this.

Pretty shit if so. Only giving yourself 15 minutes to win a 90 minute game

[kramer0]

Calvert-Lewin is a competent striker. The problem is we're bad in possession and we don't play any of our wingers who can actually beat a man.

I'd argue that a creative passer in midfield is a bigger priority than a centre forward.

Ake's a good player.

I’m not saying DCL doesn’t need to be replaced as I think we do need better but in fairness to him he’s hardly getting a chance at the moment. No striker would drastically improve this situation without better service.

I think we've got lots of priority areas
