Win our next two and I'll start to think about it.
Brighton and Bournemouth are two high pressing teams and we struggled with Evertons press today.
I was feeling somewhat okay about Brighton coming up. They looked quite tired against Palace (though they get 2 days extra rest than us) but they're also pretty open and should give us plenty of space..
But I worry massively if we haven't got Romero playing and Skipp is the 6.
we cant just bin them withut replacing them firstEverton will take points off Goons, Liv, City and or Villa and co
We were pretty poor at times but we al know we only have 11 or 12 top players….. when 5, 6 or 7 of them are out it’s gonna be a slog. Royal, Dier, Hoj need to be out by 31st of Jan
It was bleeding obvious what they had to do. They could see we had shite at the back and skipp. Dyche would have done his homework on them. In fact watched the first half again and we wasn’t that good even in the first 25 mins. Got the goals but were sloppy which they latched onto and pressed or did quick diagonal balks as they could see we had no FBs and the wide players were not coming back.
Yes of course he did - but making it out to be the worst VAR mistake of the season is a bit over-dramatic, there have been many far less contentious or arguable ones, that's my point.He did slip, and it is natural to try to catch yourself; but he absolutely gained advantage by completely controlling the ball.

For the third time, I'm not defending the decision, I'm saying that it's a very long way from being the worst VAR mistake of the season which two other posters are claiming it to be. There have been many far worse / obvious ones.It was a joke. Not sure why you are defending it.
If that bald cunt can't see where we need to strengthen in a couple of weeks time then Ange needs to walk.
I'd bring back Hojbjerg to play 6 (wonder if the transfer uncertainty is the reason he missed out?). Or Sarr with Gio and Kulu as 8s.I was feeling somewhat okay about Brighton coming up.

They cheated, so it's fair. What's not fair is Chelsea and City not getting anything.I hope Everton get their 10 points back, they could have a run at a European place.
2 very tough games coming up Brighton and B'muffWe rode our luck. There will be days when the B team won't get away with it.

But yes Romero missing out would be a big problem.
