Match Thread Notts Forest 0-1 Everton. Sat 12th april. 3pm

[Zatara]

I never been more happy to see Everton Footballer slot.

This is why you keep your council till the final whistle guys.

Football has a habit of making people look VERY stupid.

Like seeing Doucoure, Broja and Harrison be absolute crap ALL game.

A fine finish masking another disgraceful performance.

You cheer away.

Moyes set up the team brilliantly -- picked the wrong players.

We could have and should have won that by more goals but for the dross selected in 3 out of 4 attacking positions.

Anyone can see that.

Wtf language is that commentary haha. With absolutely no idea I'll just go for Finnish.

St.helens

 

[Marc bolan]

If Ipswich don’t win tomorrow we’re mathematically safe.

Not quite they can still get 38 points then goal difference

 

[Dwight K Schrute]

we will be signing first team starters in summer, we will still need others capable of doing a job

That should not be Doucoure. Such a bad player.

 

[matty1878]

You do not know what the game and score would be like if he didnt play... he broke down so many of our attacks, and is just not good enough. You calling these people out just makes you look silly

it’s about winning no matter

 

[NortheastBlue68]

Who's that commentator saying we had an "unlikely 1-0 win?".

Nobhead.

It was Paul Robinson but he did say minutes later that we fully deserved it.

 

[Mr PEN86]

We're gonna have a big say in this Champions League race I tell ya. City at Goodison next. They won't be looking forward to that

 

[ftk43]

Pleased we won. It was a good finish. But this just cements Doucoure in the side which does long-term damage.

And for those saying that he scored the winning goal, yes he did. But if him and Harrison weren't on the pitch, I'm confident we would have been out of sight by then. Forest were awful and our attacks just broke down every time the ball went to Harrison or Doucoure.

Also, Toothless Charlie needs sacking. Our set pieces are awful.

Moyes is smart enough to realise how damaging is having Doucoure in the side.
We're stuck with him for the rest of the season, but i would be surprised if he's not replaced in the summer.

 

[ValBlue]

Tell ya what....Some humble pie getting ate tonight.

Alright lad calm down he was [Poor language removed] all game

 

[Ragnar]

Absolutely made up with the win. But that was one of hell of a frustrating game. Our attack are absolutely clueless. Doucoure, Harrison, and Garner are crap.

 

[Mr PEN86]

Taxi for Moyes to BMD …

Wait are we safe yet?

 

[Gooner66789]

Moyes has been brilliant since he's come in, was such a wise choice to replace Dyche.

Winning away at Forrest this season especially is not a small feat, they've been ridiculously solid

I agree on the set pieces. But what most don't see is that forest had very little in that game and a lot of that can be credited to the work rate of Harrison and doucoure. So it's a balance. If you put in alcaraz and mcneil you also increase the chance of the other team scoring. So it's a balancing act. And Moyes got it right today because he won.

it's danish

 

[Mr PEN86]

I mean bless him, Doucs likes it here and wants to stay but I think it's the end of the road. It'll be the most Everton thing to offer him a new contract though. Just watch
