to say something in answer to a remark typically in a sharp, angry, or witty manner.

oh my brain

 

[matty1878]

Feel's only right to have Everton be winning the league next year with that barnstormer of a new stadium.

 

[Wat Tyler]

How are they 3rd?

Couldn’t believe how bad they were there

 

[RomanReigns]

where are all the forest fans who came on here after they beat us at goodison now?

 

[Exeter_Gently]

We've got a good record at that Ground.

 

[GoldenToffee]

Not been mentioned but Jake the Snake was again brilliant today.

Couldn’t believe how bad they were there

not that we played well and stopped them at there own game?

Not been mentioned but Jake the Snake was again brilliant today.

He's learning fast on the job at right back

 

[ValBlue]

3 points....all that matters

Yes, and I’m THRILLED that he bagged a winner (well taken, too)

But I’m not letting that blind me from the fact that for 94 minutes, he (and Harrison) killed almost every single one of our attacks. He plays in the position that needs the most passing composure and it’s his greatest weakness.

If you want him to be the number 10 for every game, 90 minutes, that’s fine. But he’ll cost you more points than he wins you over the course of a season.

 

[LEONARD]

Looking forward to MOTD tonight, trotters up and a nice glass of single malt.

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

Behave, take the winner and any blue slotting in injury time all day, especially after we battered them.

Sadly, Doucs is still crap, so there’s no need for anyone to eat any humble pie, your just making yourself look a bit of a tit.

 

[Bilko]

What was that Doucoure celebration, imitating writing / signing something then making a phone call……. Reckon it was a ‘where’s my new contract’ msg myself.

I thought he was telling other clubs to ring him no ?

 

[Zatara]

C'mon Zat it was brilliantly taken, strange I thought though when DM passed him a pen at the end when they hugged.

I didnt celebrate it.

Moyes will give him an extension...looks like Harrison will be staying on as well.

Result today and for the rest of the season are meaningless.

Its all about trying to find the best players in the best positions.

We won...woop dee doo. Short term great.

Immediate reaction from the goal until now is...disappointed in 3/4 of the starting attackers.

Alcaraz, Beto and later McNeil added a threat.

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.

Quality setup and tactics by Moyes.

Disgraceful team selection.

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.

Moyes is making a mockery of this view by the team selections.

No mate...I've left that to others today
