Match Thread Brentford 2-2 Everton Saturday 11th April 3.00pm

….i just think this side has proper ‘stickability’, just a shame we went out of the FA Cup as we did.

Game of two halves, we reacted well to the early goal to get a deserved equaliser before the break. They were in the ascendency before they went ahead but great character to get that late equaliser. KDH should’ve done better with his one-on-one but he kept going and I thought he was MoM for his contribution throughout.

Decent cameo from George, can see why Moyes uses him, he hits a ‘heavy ball’ and could get a key goal or two on the run-in. Tough game between two well matched tesms, well earned point.

This is about 5 mins after coming on.

Had it in for him after 10 mins of his debut

Good point away from home.

Something needs to be done about the time taken for throw-ins. Every time their long throw expert had one he took 30-40 seconds each time. 40 throw-ins during the entire game.

Obviously not every throw was 30 seconds, but probably a third of them were.

That's about 15 minutes of the match gone waiting for players to take a throw in, which is absolutely woeful for match-goers.

They paid about £35m and will easily double it.

We paid £30m a piece for Beto and Barry and will be lucky if we can recoup even half of that.

Sort out the attacking scouting ffs.

Absolutely spot on.

In our entire Prem history the only decent goal scorer we've ever had was Lukaku who was here for 4 years was it and still tops the goal scoring charts. I don't know if any team in the Prem has been as consistently bad at finding goal scorers as us, yet some how we find ways to either scrape over the line or punch above our weight.

Would Barry & Beto honestly start for any other team in the league week in week out? I doubt there'd be many.

Good game to watch, a draw was a fair result. I thought Beto was very good, he's winning more flick one now and managing to keep possession when the ball is played to him.

Dirty London scumbags

Quality striker. I can't see him at Brentford next year.

They have a very happy knack of unearthing decent forwards.

Should just stalk their scouts and gazumped them.

 

[Skroob]

In the grand scheme of things, a very good point especially as I think Brentford probably edged it overall. Shame Bournemouth and Brighton both won but again, a good point.

Also, God, Damsgaard is an ugly dude.

Mykolenko MotM.

I was told last week that there was a recent Premier league game with just over 45 minutes where the ball was in play. That’s diabolical.

The average back in November was 55 minutes, yet that’s declined apparently.

 

[Toffeepot]

with what? we rightly deserved something


and even if didn’t draw the seasons not not over half of you given up

I was talking about one incident after our equaliser
