Would still take a point, even from here.

They're a good side but we're making them so uncomfortable, hope we can keep this energy and passion up.

people need to stop these posts like we’re barca these are full
of world class players

we’ve gotta another half to keep
fighting this is guna be backs to the wall

I loved the no nonsense wallop up field from Beto, good stuff.

 

[MisterJ]

That Beto offside was marginal and yet they are all acting like it’s a mile off. If it was other way, they would all kick off if it was blown immediately

The point is though that Stones has got unnecessarily hurt due to the failure to blow.

 

[Blue Willy]

Agreed, those are actually the ones you want the linesman to wait for confirmation on.
If we scored they’re getting the lines out

Or rewinding 5 minutes to find an iffy foul.

They still have a fearsome bench to call upon too.. take a point?

 

[Rita_Poon]

Anyone else noticing Onana being too casual, not fully committing to challenges or even getting involved?

Not sure, think he's patrolling and keeping an eye on Garner, who I worried had been at the Christmas sherry for the opening ten minutes...

Lewin and Coleman on for me

I’d give Beto another 15. Ake is terrified of him/the ball.

But I’d swap Patto and Coleman. Think Patto has been all right but Coleman has a bit more experience to manage Grealish. (Even though Grealish would rip most RBs).

 

[BLUESTEVE]

Yellow to Patterson is worrying me

Agree take Coleman on for 2nd half?

 

[Frenk]

Commentators in their heads: “What the, Everton have scored, how do I deal with this, I can't deal with this, arrrggghhh, arrrrggghhh”

Nobody acting like we're Barca Matty, we're significantly better than that.

In fairness to the linesman, it's not his fault, it's the fault of the daft rule which he's obliged to enforce.
