Match Thread Everton v Fulham - Match Report & MotM Poll

[matty1878]

We lost when we had the game at our mercy. The disappointment will likely linger. We move on - to Spurs and City and, quite possibly, 0 from 6.

possibly. but it’s upto us to not let it happen

so we can’t dwell on to saturdays now

I thought Fulham deserved it on balance, to be honest.

They played the game they needed to play.

Not that we shouldn’t have seized it on that fifth penalty, but there you go.

To be honest, I don't believe Everton will win this Cup in my great grandchilds lifetime. And they haven't been born yet.

Mate we'll not win anything again. Just happy I saw the 80s. Really terrible that mate. Onana what was he thinking

 

[Blue83]

Pen's don't count as a loss really, so we're technically still undefeated in proper football, just 1 loss in pennoball

Pretty much season over now. The FA Cup cannot possibly be as kind to us as the Carabao Cup was and we still managed to mess that up royally tonight. We won't be in the relegation mix, and obviously we cannot qualify for Europe. Season over before Christmas - what a way to deflate an unbelievable run of form.

Would be delighted with that TBH, if I could ignore Everton until August it’d be bliss…

 

[Tommy Chong]

Gutted! Oh well...

 

[Spadge Vernacular]

Although it is bad to have gone out and in such a stupid way it is a distraction out of the way. We still have to play against the remaining teams in the league, the refs and the corrupt Prem heirarchy.

A boring season of mid table would be incredible progress for us this year (10 points or not). This is hugely disappointing but let's not overblow it.

If Fulham get Middlesbrough in the semis I'll be so vexed, best chance in ages to win a cup

 

[dan7787]

Pickford is absolutely last at pens that aren’t hit straight down the middle at his face.

Wtf are you on about?

 

[UltraVires]

He’s an utter moron

Think that’s a bit harsh because he’s done well for us. You take the rough with the smooth with a young player and he has flaws but how often will he take pens for us? Hardly ever.

 

[diggerdestroyer]

I agree with this.

I don't want to lose any game but with everything that is happening to us this season I want league points more than anything else.

Staying in the Premiership is most important for this season.
If we can consolidate our league position this season that for me is most important.

100% .Cup semi would have been great. League points much more important. We cannot afford to go down.

I just know everton by now, we are not them across the park who win every pen shootout that matters, we do heroic failure.

Unfortunately this is ingrained in the club, it will take decades to eradicate it fully... that`s if we ever do...

but it's note 'heroic', it's just failure

 

[Norwegian Cow]

Pickford should’ve stopped about 4 here

Should - could
