Match Thread Ebepton v Woolwich - Tuesday 13th 19:45

[Ollie d]

A couple of proper tackles and bam, the crowd raises' the volume and hatred which then spur the players on. Can definitely see a red card in this one , Clattenberg owes us a couple of hundred favours,don't he?

 

[MrGrumpy]

first 20 minutes was awful and they were always going to score. Then finally after 20 minutes the penny stopped and the players started to get stuck in and we got the deserved goal. Can see we have no confidence

 

[The Cowboy]

Nice to see the lads fighting, maybe Koeman is changing their mentality from passing the ball around like prima Donna's.

Sorry but before they scored it was archetypal Koeman this season. He didn't do anything to change things after the goal, it was the crowd. Don't start crediting him for what we've seen since.

Been a long time since we passed the ball around mate, been hoof, hoof of late.

 

[II McColl II]

Finally a bit of fight, when your crap just give it everything and hit someone and you will get full support no matter what, these cockney lady boys want none of it

 

[Fat Eric]

at last....some passion and fight...COYB....win this and tee up the derby nicely

 

[Ring master]

competed a lot better at times,still dodgy a few times,but looked like we might score before we did,better team for last however part of the 1st half

 

[toffee matt]

More intensity in the last 20 minutes than every game for the last 3 years put together.

 

[mkrudden]

Anyone who is wondering how Koeman wants the team to play...

It's with THIS intensity. THIS pressing. THIS aggression.

Game well in the balance, and it's up too us now not to go and mess it all up.

Off the ball.
But what about on it?
Because on it we are still absolutely guff.

 

[chrissyjack]

I like THIS Everton

 

[Zezti]

Do we make changes?
I'd still bring Holgate on for Williams.

 

[zandvoort blue]

we're gonna get one back before half. come on lads!

Lottery numbers please mate?

 

[lungo]

We are on fire, they are rattled.

Slow down. To much headless stuff out there to be sure of anything. Williams having a nightmare. Jagielka not much better. Barkley making costly mistakes . Its far from being a good Everton. At least they try

 

[Tubey]

Amazing what difference a bit of actual effort makes eh?

Delighted with the fans for inspiring it, but it's shouldn't be rocket science for professional footballers.

 

[Prevenger17]

Fans are the manager

Tbf, the fans need the players to just pick it up. Hard to get enthused about some of the lethargic tosh we've been churning out lately. Effort is enough to get fans on board

 

[BernieWright13]

Great to see Dunc at the centre of a ruck again
