Match Thread Everton 1-1 Wolverhampton Wanderers 19:30 Weds 7th January 2026.

Brentford at #5 very impressive for a team everybody though would be fighting for relegation

Literally where we should be after the previous 2 home games …

 

[Papa Shango]

It’s a human reflex. It amazes me you would class that as “violent.”

He doesn't class it as violent.

The rules of the game do.

It happened in the Womens Euros, it happened to Cucarella recently too. It's not like its something that hasn't happened before.

By the rules of a game it's a red. The ref had no choice but to give it once he saw it.

 

[Marcus Kendall]

Actually have no complaints for the ref. Grealish was dicing with a second yellow a few times and should have known better.

Keane, harsh, but he did pull the players hair.

Mentality, we lack the desire to dominate attack and finish off teams.

Mentality is directly linked to the manager, its why Moyes has never kicked on in his career and why he never is truly loved by the fans despite getting impressive league finishes at times

 

[Cels]

So is that a one-game ban for Grealish and a three-game ban for Keane, then?

 

[WilliamBoo]

Does the suspension for Keane include the FA Cup?

Yes all games

 

[MaximusEvertonius]

So for the next game, McNeil has to go back on LW. He might even do better than Jack who’s always slowing down play. Not sure about RW but it’ll likely be Dibling. Armstrong in the middle with Garner. This will also force Jake back to CB. Patterson will just need to step up.

 

[roy vernon]

Team selection was poor and the substitutions came far too late. The only good thing to come put of it is he will have to play O'Brien centre back now.

 

[nsno_traditionally]

Change for who?

Fresh legs were needed as I'm sure you know, Beto, Patterson, Rohl and Dibling could all come on to keep the energy levels up, pretty obvious really.

 

[Andy Gray Diving Headers]

Didn't see the first yellow but 3 claps does not get a second yellow ever

The 2nd wasn't long after the 1st. He had lost his head and was pulled away from ref a couple of minutes earlier. Jack was stupid, deserved 2nd yellow.

 

[lungo]

That's what happens when the wrong team is selected.

There isnt a right team. The best (apart from Barry) played.

 

[Smurph]

I don’t know what people get from piling on to our own players.

The idea what Keane did was violent conduct is an absolute joke.

What’s the argument. It’s the rules?

Armstrong had just had studs down his calf.

Anybody thinking Keane deserves a red for that has lost their mind.

 

[coleman’s mustard]

Or in the lead basically paralyzed in making timely subs unless it's a panic move

Totally agree

Wolves getting on top and making changes but nothing from Moyes

 

[LinekersLegs]

Keane didn’t even know what he was grabbing. Why are you blaming him?

Err, hair will feel very different than a shirt for a start, let alone being able to see with his eyes.

You are telling me the guy that showed such quick reactions for his goal had super slow reactions to what his hand was on?

 

[Bedfordblue]

Last red card for violent conduct via hair pulling (July 25)


And another in Dec 24

Tim was good today, faded in the second.
