    Soucek pushed over and nothing given, what a surprise. Another ref intent on giving us nothing.

    So far this is a much better 0-0 first half performance than the one against Southampton

    Randolph kicks are a bit weak. We're doing alright so far.

    His kicks are hardly clearing the half way line.
    Maybe he's the secret love child of Phil Parkes...

    (on my meal break, listening to 5 Live).

    Benrahma has had a couple of moments where he looks very lively, but he’s also had a couple where he looks very lightweight and has given up good opportunities
  • buffybegoodbuffybegood
    Fornals gives away a free kick out wide level with the 18 yard line
  • alderzalderz
    Haller hasn’t been particularly good with his link up play or running or anything. This formation doesn’t give him the isolation excuse either, as Benrahma has been right up with him. His layoffs and things have been mostly weak.

    Good save from Randolph there
  • buffybegoodbuffybegood
    Now a corner to defend just before half time
  • buffybegoodbuffybegood
    Ball comes out and Randy pushs a long range shot round the post for another corner, but nothing comes of it.

    Been another Jorderz match thread masterpiece so far.

    Look at our defensive structure - beautiful.
  • yoyoyoyo
    Good half, solid and quite nippy when we're running at them
  • YeoldhammerYeoldhammer
    Not sure if both defences seem comfortable or both attacking forces are playing really poorly.
  • alderzalderz
    We look really solid with the 4, and our attackers have been in the game too. They just are also looking really solid and their attackers have been in the game. Two pretty even teams cancelling themselves out.

    Some decent touches from Haller in the last 10 minutes.
  • alderzalderz
    The club Instagram account posted a picture of Fornals with the ball at his feet. That must be from a different game...

    Think we've been the better team, even if there isn't much in it

    Bowen looking our biggest threat, Benrahma blew a bit hot and cold, Fornals/Haller quiet, Rice and Soucek look really good in the middle

    All in all, a good half, but need more cutting edge....maybe Antonio fater 60 mins
  • Jorderz_Moyes_will_be_MoyesJorderz_Moyes_will_be_Moyes
    We’ve probably edged it, but very uneventful.

    More than matching them, though.

    Antonio could make a big difference around the 60 minute mark if it’s still level.
  • alderzalderz
    I worry we won’t have the legs if Everton step it up at all. But yeah I agree we’ve been the better team
  • stevesteve
    looked okay,But will never hear the last of Jorderz,If we get something out of this

    Respect the point ☝️
  • mikemike
    anyone got a good stream for this game?
  • alderzalderz
    We’ve not started this half particularly well
  • OutcastLondonerOutcastLondoner
    Dawson doesn’t look very good today. Bad on the ball at crucial times
  • Dodger58Dodger58
    They’ve come out more aggressively
  • alderzalderz
    Randolph has not kicked well at all today.

    I wonder if with Dawson we were all blinded by expectations? We mostly thought he’d be not as good as he was against Southampton, and then we mostly thought he’d be as good as he was then tonight.
  • alderzalderz
    I think I’m done with Haller now. I’ve been pretty easy on him and have defended him a lot, as I’ve seen some flickers of quality on the ball particularly. But today he’s been shocking with the ball, and when you are bad on it you have to work a lot harder off of it.
  • alderzalderz
    That was really well worked from Rice and Cresswell. Great hall from Rice but nobody could get on the end.
  • Dodger58Dodger58
    I think you’re being a bit harsh alders, he and Benrahma are not quite gelling, but it is looking more promising. He would not be my choice (Haller), but he’s what we have at present.
  • Dodger58Dodger58
    What the heck, a good short free kick move!

    He’s layoffs and link up play generally has been the worst it’s looked, to me. Maybe I am being harsh, but im not impressed in the slightest today

    Some of the passing from both teams has been shocking

    Dawson can’t start again
