It does not help the reserves that Webber, Tate, Tierney, Richardson were all not playing. We only had two natural defenders playing - Lynch and Roche.
Chadwick is a feckin waste of space. we need to get rid of him - no doubt. If he can't cut it against Everton's reserve how is he gonna manage in the first team!.
Having said that, Everton we good. Liked the look of Osman and that new Egyptian bloke Said.</strong><hr></blockquote>
Players like Chadwick need space and there was precious little of that, it was more like a relegation battle match than the usual reserves exhibition games. No one would have got much joy out of Said, he was very impressive, damn quick and precise in the tackle. Its certainly a weakened reserves side, with players out of position, some of its best players on loan or having played earlier in the week, but the defenders are just inept and need replacing.
