It's one of them, where back earlier in the season we'd be saying that the golden headed genius Koné has to be playing because he brings out the best in Romelu 'Big Rom' Lukaku.

Kone will change this game lads.

Have faith, the smiling assassin will give lukaku a brace

RELEASE THE KOOOOOOONE

Far too many of these sort of games so far this year.

 

[Darth Toffeeman]

We have done this often though.
Hammered sides and lost.
Surely homework must have been done that they would try to score a set piece and then strangle the game. We have sleep walked straight into their game plan.

We have attacked in a decent fashion but the fact remains that we are currently 0-1 down to one of the poorest top flight sides I have seen.

So frustrating, so Everton.

Tony pulis is just an absolute dog isn't he. Would absolutely never support he managers, just scum

 

[Big Fat Sam]

I'm pretty relaxed with affairs...just a matter of time

... until we're in the 65 minute and they bring on another midfielder to sure things up, fans start getting on our players' backs and they grab a second on the break.

 

[VentureBrosEFC]

Only solace to take is the game at their place. We have recent history turning it around against them.

 

[Joey66]

Soon as I seen the ref - I knew he would give us nothing - their time wasting is so obvious not one player booked!

 

[banno]

We are doing everything but score. Problem is we are wide open at the back because we are pushing on. Can't really fault anyone as we have been unlucky but must mention that Lukaku has lost his control again and is very rarely first to the ball. I wish we would put defenders on the post. I mean Coleman and Oviedo would be ideal on the posts. Got to score early then finish them off.

 

[bol-uk]

Niasse on for Clev (who has been good) please.

 

[ftk43]

We're in for a crazy second half i reckon

 

[USABlue]

Maybe we could turn to Plan B? - oh wait

What's the plan B then mate? Route 1 balls? We don't have the personnel for long balls when they're parking the bus, only rom and mori can win any headers

eh?

 

[Mozza1987]

Very unlucky here. Should be winning never mind being level. Absolutely smashing them but just not going in.
