Lee Carsley has witnessed Ollie Watkins being dropped from the interim England manager’s first senior squad.Aston Villa followed Bournemouth’s example by scoring twice and leading by two goals before beating Everton.
But he said it was the last time when he led 2-0 in the 86th minute.It was the first time since 1958 that they had lost their first four league games.Having the third best defensive record in the top flight last season, he has already conceded 13 goals this season, despite Bournemouth’s collapse.Everton fans were left with a goal Another for Dwight McNeil and Dominic Calvert-Lewin before half-time saw Watkins pull one back before half-time. If Calvert-Lewin had scored on a clearance just after the break, “it would have been 3-1 and we wouldn’t have had that conversation,” Sean Dyche said.
The Everton manager lost Seamus Coleman to injury during the international break and Jarrad Branthwaite was not ready to return, and Vitalii Mykolenko lost to illness in the first half. Protests against Villa’s price for a Champions League ticket (£100 for a non-season ticket holder) fizzled out before kick-off and Unai Emery’s side were on target before Everton scored.
Everton fans chanted the name of former player Amadou Onana, who joined Villa for £50m in the summer.
McNeil then relished his central attack, pouncing on a free-kick from the right for Calvert-Lewin to head home from close range against Bournemouth, but Everton were still vulnerable.In a club where doubts can start over the manager’s selection policy before selling his shares in the current club.John Textor asked if Dyche was the type to pick on more sophisticated players, something Everton fans are used to.Even if you think it’s right, it’s wrong.
So when Watkins got on the head of Lucas Digne’s left-wing cross for his first goal of the season.Everyone at the ground was anticipating some delicious drama.Villa had plenty of chances and the positive substitutions got the better of them, but how would Calvert-Lewin beat the chance he missed after McNeil cleared only for Ezri Konsa to catch up.
Within four minutes, Watkins equalized and Jericho Harrison blocked Youri Tielemans’ hard ball to Dinner before slotting straight at the England striker from six yards, Emery rotating a deeper team. Of course,Durán struck 30 yards into the top corner with a magical strike after 14 minutes, his third goal from the bench this season.
“He can be a real big threat if he’s seen the ball out of the back and he’s been able to adapt. He may be one of the best strikers in the world, but he needs to keep his feet.He worked. Hardly in the world.He has one of England’s top strikers (Watkins) in front of him.” Martínez said.
