WHUFC vs Everton 11/29/17

well here we go... the games are coming thick and fast these days but some things never change and there's little to no reason to be optimistic other than we're playing arguably (besides ourselves) the shittiest team in the league.

The Toffees have just decided to appoint Allardici but fortunately he's only in the stands and Unsworth still in charge.

Carroll has cried off this one and we throw Ayew up front as the lone striker in the one formation we can be guaranteed will never work for us.

Ogbonna stays in defense despite being awful

Antonio is on the bench, so that seems like a positive.

we're actually 2nd bottom as I type this as Swansea currently have a point if they hold on against Chelsea... but the whistle goes and with barely a kick, we're back up to third from bottom'

we don't care about stats, right?

apparently not only has Moyes never won gam against Everton... none of his teams have ever scored against the Toffees...

if that was reversed, you could basically stick your mortgage on the team breaking that duck against us...



4 minutes gone... our passing is a woeful as always...

Ogbonna plays out from defense by lofting the ball high over everyone's heads and out of play... and attempt at a through ball from someone else just trickles way past everyone and out for an Everton goal kick...

holy shit... three players converge on Rooney I think it was and dispossess him as Everton attack... but then we just pass the ball straight to Everton feet..

and now a ridiculous square pass across the back almost gets intercepted and we're back to playing it to the keeper and hoping the goal kick will turn our game around.

Massuaku runs the wing... there's actually two... yes, you read that right TWO west ham players heading into the box...

but a defender intercepts - corner to us...

corner goes nowhere

8 minutes gone

west ham goal kick goes out of play almost at the everton corner flag.

I'm sure Facebook is full of people claiming we're up for it and this is a continued improvement under Moyes...

but that ain't what I'm seeing

great link up between Lanzini and Zabaleta but a great save from the Everton goalkeeper

of course... our possession goes through the midfield... Ayew loses it to the Toffees.. they attack...

Hart takes down the attacker and it's a penalty to Everton...

Rooney to take...


Hart saves... but Rooney heads in the rebound

0-1

pretty much all down to us

predictably Facebook is full of assholes claiming another refereeing decision going against us...

it wasn't

it was a sure fire penalty... no doubts.

btw... we're 0-2 down now... Rooney scores again... of course he does... it's what we do.

looks like we're back down to 2nd from bottom...

at least I'll save money on my Tv subscriptions next year cos there'll be no premiership footie to watch...

we're now level on shittiest defense with Everton...

this is exactly how I envisioned us playing under Moyes

this is exactly as shit as we were playing under Bilic

I'm really not sure how - or if - we can get out of this

35 minutes gone... pretty much all hope too

can't wait for City at the weekend.

Everton have only managed 1 clean sheet in their last 20 matches...

I'd say that's a pretty safe bet that it'll be doubled by the end of this shambles

Disappointing.

Bottom by Christmas.

well... half way through my penance...

positives from the first half?

honestly?

that we're not down by more.

this is probably as bad as I've seen us... this is worse than under Bilic...

you might all think I'm crazy... but this is bad... just bad...

I agree.

Think I'I go and watch, "I'm a Celebrity".

Sahko on for Obiang...

let's see how much difference that will make

Cresswell should have scored...

thunderous shot cannons off the crossbar ...

but ultimately it's all the same...

94% possession so far in the 2nd half and one shot off the woodwork...

sure... you can call it an improvement until the cows come home... fact is... we're 0-2 down to Everton and 1 off the bottom of the league

looks like Antonio is coming on to replace Arnautovic - which is a not a moment too soon given Arnie's piss poor 'pass' across the box that goes nowhere.



Penalty to WHUFC... Sahko wins it... who will take?

Lanzini

And he misses...

TV graphics are so cool... as Lanzini sizes up the goal.. the graph comes up showing exactly where Lanzini placed his last three penalties... so guess what...

he places the ball exactly where you'd expect... the keeper goes to exactly that spot - and save it..

and there you have it...

there was I arguing the toss with assholes on Facebook... Everton launch an attack... but don't look threatening except for the fact that the ball goes completely past our defense and Hart has to scramble out to clear...

Hart's clearance goes straight down the middle of the park to where Rooney is standing inside his own half... Hart is off his line... so Rooney doeswhatanyonewould do... he kicks the ball.

It flies over the head of Hart... all the way from inside the Everton half to the back of the net.

This is Rooney's first EVER hat trick for Everton...

you honestly couldn't write this stuff... people would just laugh at you in disbelief...

we've now surpassed Everton as the worst defense in the league.

Winston Reid is coming off injured...

0-4


I'm not joking...

this will be Everton's first clean sheet in 14 games if nothing changes in the next three minutes

and there you go... all done and done

anyone thinking we did the right thing by appointing Moyes can honestly go fupp themselves...

It's not the manager's fault - but that doesn't change a thing... he's certainly not the man to get us out of this

bottom by Xmas will flatter us playing the way we are

I'm not even sure I was this unhappy under Grant or Curbishley

this is just bad, bad, bad...

sorry Chas, didn't see you there... if you did go watch "I'm a Celebrity" then you did the right thing... the 2nd half was even worse...

these are horrible times... just horrible...

Adrian is back on Sunday so a clean sheet is a given.

nothing is a given with our shitty defense, especially if Reid joins the injured list...

I love the gag that man City have offered to tear up the loan agreement and allow Hart to play against them at the weekend.
