Match Thread Everton v Chelsea - team prediction, Match Report & MotM Poll

[Lobworm]

Another first half masterclass from the no-mark in the dug out. Under no circumstances whatsoever try to dominate the ball, under no circumstances whatsoever try to play on the front foot, under no circumstances whatsoever try to attack, under no circumstances whatsoever give 40k fans who are behind the team something to feed off. Ol' gravel gullet will have spent the last 2 days beating any high out of the lads and telling them that anything other than whacking it long to the lone striker who offers nothing at the best of times will result in you not getting lump of coal for xmas. I'm amazed this so-called "football" manager hasn't spent the last 44 minutes physically waiving the white handkerchief.

LOL, They had 4 shots on target, we had five.



You won the possession though!

Tarks for me. Don't think he put a foot wrong, closely followed by Myko and Branthwaite

I also went with Tarks. Doucoure was everywhere and Branthwaite and Mykolenko were brilliant but Tarks had to cover across on the right several times when they were causing us issues down that side

I know it's too early to say 'we're back!' like.

But we're f*cking back!

We'll be last on, after the highlights from yesterday and the extended reshowing of the Liverpool game

Does anyone watch that heap of .... any more? Better highlights on Youtube.

 

[Wild Bill]

Doucs for me too. It's a strange feeling when I'm struggling to decide who's motm because there's 5 or 6 who had brilliant games. Loving this team at the mo!

Totally agree but Doucoure edged it for me because of his composure for our first goal. That was a decisive moment.

 

[SussexToffee1980]

We would be in 10th, one point behind West Ham, without the you know what.

Would be have played better though?. It's kind of made us wake up and realise the consequences if we didn't find some sort of form.

You can count on that.

Went for Mykolenko for MOTM. He was superb and has been for most of the season. He has went from being a liability to the first name on the team sheet.
Credit to Patterson too, who kept Mudryk quiet in the 2nd half as he was running amok against Young In the first.

 

[BlueTX]

Joint 5th best defensive record (goals allowed) in the league now. Been a good while since Everton been this sound at the back.

 

[Flavor Flav]

Large American contingent in the pub here. Any on here?

Picked a good one to fly over for

Good to hear. I'll be over for the City game. Hope we get the same performance. I still need to sort tickets out for the game, but I am looking forward to it.

 

[windymiller]

Mykolenko was again MOTM for me, but there were many heros putting in big performances out there today. I thought Mudryk was going to destroy us until Patterson came on and put him in his pocket, I really hope the people who think Young is a better option at right back than Patterson finally stop with their stupid agenda from here on in.

Once again Dyche got his tactics and subs correct, especially after the effort we had put in on Thursday night. Nine points in just over a week, you really can't odds that.

Who on earth could you be talking about?
