Match Thread Everton 1-1 West Ham . Sat March 15th. 3pm

[Moderatelywarmwater]

Could have lost, could have won, ref was the usual level of horror.

My heart rate is coming back down to normal, just another weekend supporting this team.

I'm definitely grateful for that point, but let's face it we've been safe for a while now. Upwards and onwards Blues.

It will be nice next season. When we have jeopardy on our games. Not the jeopardy of relegation, but the jeopardy of European qualification. In our iconic new stadium we will soon be back, where we belong, at the top table with the rest of the European elite.

Needs to pull his finger out with his subs

and dyche was here it would
be another defeat and the one last week

Not disagreeing but our performances have dropped off a cliff the last 3 games but we`ve still managed to get points... scored in 9 games in a row now isn`t it.

Just wish we could have a decent few home performances for the Old Lady.

We’ve got a very limited set of players, every one of fans should be aware of that by now.

We are going to have performances like that and still didn’t lose.

 

[johnjoeefc]

Good result considering the performance. Onwards and upwards

 

[matty1878]

I was not overly arsed about losing coz it was one of those days, but after the double foul on Myko not being given, I was desperate for us to score just to shove it up the ref.

Great assist by Gana.

I don't want Beto, Harrison or Doucs in the starting 11. Chermiti looks a player. Broja can hold the ball up and is strong but does not make the best decisions.

Night and day after the subs.

( usual officials we have had this season.)

 

[Straqayoko]

Doucouré played himself out of a new contract with that performance, maybe that's why Moyes left him on for so long - to leave it in no doubt. Unusually lazy in the press, strange positioning and useless in possession. Can never start again. See similar with Harrison, although he is better on the left where we have Ndiaye and McNeill anyway.

It’s like being a man down when Doucoure is playing.

I think we will when mcneil and ndiaye come back. Maybe even dcl as we are struggling to hold it up there

 

[GoldenToffee]

Can we please knock these 5 star winter break retreats on the head please? They seem to do far more bad than good.

We go 1 down under Dyche he just plays to not to concede anymore and accept a 1-0 loss.

 

[_jamlev]

Pretty similar to last week. We were better first half but considering we were at home it's not great. But hey ho, take the point. Important not to forget that we are actually a pretty crap football team, that run of wins papered over the cracks a bit.

On the positive, Chermiti looked lively when he came on and Alcaraz firmly made the case to be never be played out wide.

 

[blue to the bone]

Good first half. Awful 2nd half but kept going and got the point . But it shows how badly we need forward options.
Bar Alcaraz none of the others are probably good enough.
