By pass the middle ,Hoof ball it is

buffybegood

Oh well.

Lukerz

Well that was easy

buffybegood

Defo arm over Lanzini's shoulder in the box, seen them given (obviously not to West Ham though). No VAR just in case anyone was wondering.

buffybegood

Good save by Randolph after Richarlison got in behind Johnson and outpaced Balbuena.

buffybegood

Richarlison gets the ball past Randolph this time, but was rightly flagged offside.

Lukerz

Noble is not offering a great deal.

I would look to shake that middle up. Rice in midfield with Soucek/Fornals as the game goes on.

They are dominating that area. Should not be testing players in September.

buffybegood

Lovely ball in by Yarmolenko, but Lanzini couldn't quite get a touch on the ball played over his shoulder.

Lukerz

There is no midfield.

It’s either the back four defending or the front four attacking.

No surprise given our midfield is Noble and Snodgrass

OutcastLondoner

Can we give Haller a good delivery?

Lukerz

Game passing Anderson by again

buffybegood

Cynical foul on Yarmolenko goes completely unpunished, lino only yards away didn't even flag.

buffybegood

Corner by Lanzini completely overhit, what a waste.

OutcastLondoner

Can’t wait for Moyes to return so I don’t have to hear the “working from home” joke anymore.

buffybegood

A good spell of passing ends with a decent cross from Creswell, but Lanzini guides it beyond the far post.

buffybegood

1-0 HT

EXETERHAMMER

Everton solid as expected but certainly not perfect

Why oh why haven't we kept to the same formation as last game. We look too vulnerable with a flat back 4.

steve

Not great thats for sure .Need at lest Bowen to spark things up a bit

Lukerz

No Antonio, Bowen, Soucek (& to a lesser extent Masuaku) & we are just nowhere near as dynamic.

MIAHammer

26 seconds into the 2nd half. What a team goal!

buffybegood

Get in

26 seconds into the 2nd half, Anderson lays the ball back to Snodgrass at the edge of the area and he scores in the top right hand corner.

Game on.

buffybegood

Close call, Richarlison hits the base of the post,although Randolph might have had it covered.

buffybegood

Good spell of pressure from Everton, Anderson then gives the ball away cheaply but Everton blaze over.

Lukerz

Need to make a sub or two now, whilst we are in the game. They have upped it.

buffybegood

More pressure from Everton resulting in a good shot which Randolph saves well.

EXETERHAMMER

Masuaku for Anderson please

buffybegood

2-1 Everton

Richarlison shoots, but it takes a big deflection off Rice and Randolph had no chance.

Lukerz

Far too late

And now losing

We needed to make a sub as they had upped the game tempo. Our midfield will not keep up with that.

So obvious.

OutcastLondoner

Rice shouldn’t be turning his back like that for that shot
