The positives: Zouma, Fletcher, Choupo The negatives: Berahino, Allen Bruno comes in, Geoff to the middle, just need a proper striker (Joselu?) Coatesy needs to wave the dong really. Disappointing but nowhere near as bad as some are making out... We need Geoff in the middle to get either him or Fletcher passing and making a forward threat. Fletcher defending and Allen doing whatever the fuck that was didn't work.

So what have we learned today? -Hughes is still a fucking imbecile that hasn't got a clue how to swap this garbage system he originally bought in. - Pieters is still. Fucking. Wank. -Choppo looks a decent prospect. Much more of a physical prrsence than the wank pot that came before him. Pieters wank?? Talk about a boo boy fuck me. He is not and never will be a wing back, to start with most of his crosses are awful.

We have also learned that you are one of the biggest pissy knickers on here. Can't handle the truth then? There's so e positives there but it's largely the same as last season with this fuckwit of a manager. Sandpit stage left with a nice spot to bury thee head. Wring your panties out, get them washed and dried, and I'll see you back here next week owd.

Worryingly most of the league would of got something today, we just can't create. Maxim looked bright. No poor performances, but none outstanding, allen motm for me.

Didn't deserve to lose no matter what the doom monger say. Abit toothless at the top end of the pitch, much better when crouch and moting came on. We will have a good season Don't agree - we deserved to lose because we carried no goal threat whatsoever

Apart from the goal we were fine at the back. Fletcher played with some authority and moved the ball forward with accuracy. Bojan was poor in the first half and totally anonymous in the second, that must be the end of him; Shaquiri must play at numbeer 10. Berahino as the lone striker _ WTF?
Disappointed with the result but no disaster

Am I right in thinking that Sparky would have paid Β£22m for Berahino at one stage? Conveniently forgetting that Tottenham wera going to pay Β£23 million at the same time I see !

Pieters wank?? Talk about a boo boy fuck me. He is not and never will be a wing back, to start with most of his crosses are awful. Yet his crosses created some fantastic opportunities today.

Returned from a dump and counted twice in the space of a minute in the second half, twice in the first had the run around. Then miss-kicking the ball to allow them to get a dangerous cross in. Absolute joke that there's no one to give him competition. I suppose we've gone that long without a decent left back that people forget what the standard is. Clue, he's far behind it.

I thought we did OK but there's some glaring issues that need addressing to make us a top 10 side.
We didn't create anywhere near enough and until Shaq's shot at the end we didn't test Pickford other than with floated crosses. We desperately need a striker who holds the ball up and can keep the CB's busy. Berahino from what I've seen does neither. Crouch is to slow. Joselu may do it but despite a great pre season he didn't show a huge amount in his first season. That said he's the closest we have.
It was almost like we looked great until we got into the final third when we seemed to run out of ideas. From what I saw ECM looked pretty good and will get better. Because of his size he gave them something to think about. Bojan for me just doesn't have the physical presence in the role he was playing.
Thought Fletcher was excellent and I'm sorry March but he'll make us a better side than with Whelan because he's always looking to go forward.
Gutted about the result but a lot of positives.
So MH needs to get busy this week
Striker now a priority along with LB. Get those 2 postions sorted and we'll look a very good side.
Thought Everton considering the money they spent were pretty average. No doubt after seening that performance they'll just throw more money at building the squad. 7th for them I think. How the co commentator (idiot) said they bossed us I will never know. Was he one of their ex players? We ran them close and with a break or 2 could have taken a point. Thought the ref had an easy game but managed to give them pretty much every 50/50 decision.

He was caught high up the pitch on a few occasions allowing everton to get behind him... he should have dropped deeper quicker when we lost the ball... No agenda as I like him.

Well that cunt of a keeper picked a good day to have fantastic game. The cunt He looks a top keeper but other than commanding his box very well he only had to make 1 save.

Crouch unsettled the opposition for 5 minutes then it's back to 'as you were'.
We need to work out a proper front two and pronto.
Choupo and Saido Choupo and Joselu Shaq and Saido Joselu and Saido
Are the combinations for me. Although I can't remember Sobhi and Saido being on the same pitch much together.
3-5-2
Zouma Ryan BMI Diouf Cameron Fletcher Allen Choupo Shaqiri Berahino

What was Hughes thinking when he brought in Berahino to,play in that system ?
