Match Reaction vs Everton (home).

[21_GOONER_SALUTE]

Cech easily man of match, which says a lot.

Poor performance mainly due to Emery still not knowing his best 11.

Torriera starting was nice, but he partnering Xhaka is an overkill; Guendozi or even maybe Ramsey partnering would have helped us look more balanced as a whole.

Attackwise Ramsey and Ozil have been poor for a while and either Mhiki or preferably Iwobi should have started with one of them. Also the fact that the latter 2 actually look comfortable carrying the ball and trying to beat opponents is effective with the style Emery wants us to play.

As for the goalscorers, we thank the Good Lord he has listened and hasn't fiddled with the partnership, yet anyway.

As for our defenders, I give up. We still need a whole new back 4, but we can do with easing out Mustafi asap and giving Lichsteiner far more game time anywhere along that line.

Oh we kept a clean sheet finally, but that was 100% down to Cech.
