Eidevall: We need to be more efficient in attack

Jonas Eidevall cut a frustrated figure following Sunday's 1-1 draw with Everton. 

Our head coach saw his side take the lead late on through Alessia Russo after wasting a host of chances, only to then concede deep into stoppage time from a corner and go home with a share of the spoils. 

"In order to get better results we need to be more effective in the chances that we create," said Eidevall during his post-match interview. You can see with the way that Everton played, they defended with a lot of players. They defend with a lot of intensity, so the margin for error and the margin for success is very thin and you need to have the right weight of pass and the right timing.

"Those things have to click at the same time and today there were too many times, especially in the first half, where it’s the right weight of pass but not the right timing of the run and vice versa. I think we improved a little bit in the second half, but it became more difficult with the wind and it was a little bit harder to play out from their pressure, which does mean we didn’t create as many situations in sustained attacks.

"Everton is very good on their set pieces and we know it’s a threat of them, they’re one of the most effective teams in the league on that, so obviously we also need to look at the final minutes in the game to not concede so many situations from set pieces. Overall we created enough to win the game and that’s probably the one thing we need to take away to improve our effectiveness."
