No surgery fortunately, I wouldn't have taken it if it was recommanded. Did a shit load of physical therapy though. It tore because it was weak, very tight and it was the right foot (my shooting foot). I basically had all the perfect combo for such an injury if you take into account I was extremely tired generally

Nah that's a huge overreaction, he wasted a couple of great one on ones, but also hit the post with a great effort that should have been a goal, and his football apart from finishing and his defensive work was top notch.Antony should have took the match ball home today. Poor fecker.Eriksen back!! Martial off the mark. Hopefully Rashford okay
Apologies heat of the matchday thread.
He played today?
Pickford made 9 saves
We could have won 11-0Does anyone have the xG on this game? I would guess close to 5.0 too .8….something like that.Great performance even if it did emphasise our need for a goalscorer. Rashford injury is a big problem unfortunately. Hopefully he's back within a month and Martial steps up in his absence. Bruno motm. Maguire also good today tbf to him.
No need mate. All good here
I only mentioned Scott because he was the one who was guaranteed to play with Casemiro being out. The team is then built with his limitations in mind. It forces Bruno deeper, and then means Sabitzer plays #10 with Fred not in the starting line-up (which is the thing that I was originally responding to).Why not mention all three then?
Another fairly good game today from Scott though, along with pretty much all our players. Not that Everton really tested us.
I would not let a doctor man stick needles there on me
I don't think I'll be a scout much longer anyway so okYou can still give me a like for that post
Damn, I had needles on my lower, to treat my herniated L5-S1 disc, so painful. Can't imagine a needles in the groin region
Agreed, hoping for a draw or even Spurs win if have to choose a winnerYou worry about the legs there though dont you
I meant having the two as options, not playing together.
Scott was a lot better than "fairly good" - most of our players were excellent (apart from their finishing). Even defensively we were solid
Yet it worked so in that case I might reconsider.
certainly not as injuries tend to get mental for you wondering if it will happen again which can affect your form
crazy though we’ve played 49 matches this season and he’s featured in 47 of them
McTom could have been easily sent off beforeOne of the best first halves we may have played all season and didn’t get the rewards for a brilliant performance due to some poor finishing. Second half Everton actually out in an effort and our tempo slowed which made it a bit more challenging but deserved three pointsFor those that were not pleased by my pre-match post just listen to what EtH is saying on tv now. Quote “we need to score more goals” and that is why I sometimes worry before a match. We should have had this match won before half time, another quote from EtH post match. All I’m saying is I had a gut feeling we were going to struggle to score today but in fact we should have scored at least 5 today but we we’re hanging on until that second goal went in. For all Everton’s pushing and harassing they caused very little threat in front of goal and I am very pleased with the result. 3 points closer to staying in top four but plenty of banana skins before end of season, especially if we lose Rashford through injury.
Most obvious reaction was a massive case of shrinkage! Went feckin turtle in shell!
Barely noticed him right? AnonymousHe played today?
Just watched the game. 1st half in total control and if it wasn’t for Pickford having a good game, we could have been well out of sight.
2nd half, a bit under the cosh but never felt like we were going to concede. Just hope Rashford is ok. He’s the last player we need injured!
Overall, very happy with that performance and result.
I mean, you initial post was you couldn’t see him having a good game when most other replies were saying he was having a good game. He then added an assist on top of that. It’s OK not to thing he’s good enough for us, but he had a good game today.How do you set up to sit and counter against a Sean Dyche team?
Hopefully that first half showed you. We got in behind them from deep long balls about 10 times.
United didn’t sit and play on the counter today by the way
Trust me bro.
What was our starting formation and player positions- is there a good website for this? Should also be a thread mark here imo
That is a very meaningless information if you can't split that between attacking / defending, plus you want to see heat maps to see how much area each player is covering... Imo not worth it.
It’s the way the manager sets up, especially with our midfield constantly changing its interesting to see. Sabitzer at the 10 was a big change.
I don't think you'll find information you're looking for tbh. Most graphs show "average position" and that's not something that will give you any insights on team setup.
Bruno is a fantastic player. However he’s always been erratic in the buildup giving possession away cheaply which is probably why other managers have kept him away from the engine room (unless to provide a bit of support etc) ETH has obviously seen something the others didn’t and he’s provided a few really brilliant displays from there. Lovely stuff.I really like Sabitzer as No.10. He's everything I'd hoped we'd be getting when we signed Van De Beek.
During the first few minutes of every game nbc airs the lineups. Not sure if that’s unique to the American broadcast but I’m talking about that specific information. From what I know the managers have to submit that.
Just need to find someone who has that ability to play CDM but also CM too- Status
