Match Thread Chelsea v Everton - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[TennesseeBlue]

Pickford, Siggy Gomes and Digne all about even for Motm for me. Thought Bernard and Walcott struggled. Overall a well fought for point and I walk away happy with the result

thought Lookman looked excellent as well

Nice to see us get loads of offside Silva has the defence sorted now....
Jags coming on took the sting pit of Chelseas good period in the game too!

Yeah good call that, early in the season I was worried that Silva was all about attacking but we look hard to score against now

 

[ToffeeTim]

I know why we took Gylfi off but he would’ve been nice to have on those last couple of set pieces.

Struggling with the knock he got on the ankle from Jorginho.

Man of the Match Mrs Football Friend who texted Kevin to tell him to cut out the Chelsea cheating, diving, kicking...

 

[verreauxi]

Pickford had a great game, earned us the point. But a good team effort overall.

 

[Blue Magic]

Thought Pickford, Digne and Gomes all did well, as did Lookman when he came on.

 

[Royalbm1]

Pickford for me but very a close second for Digne. Only really Walcott who wasn't very good today, rest of the team were very good.

Really want to see lookman starting a few games..

Happy with that result.
The ref was awful.

 

[BlueToff]

I'll put up the bunting.

Well it's a serious step in the right direction.

We had some good half-chances, nothing clear. Even Bernard's was more of a bit of luck. Walcott's poor touch would probably have been our best chance.

Pickford made some saves, we got a bit lucky, but it's a brilliant point at one of the best teams in Europe. We went to win, that's the important thing.

 

[verreauxi]

Morata is a divey diva.

The ref was awful.

Walcott played well, imo.

One sloppy touch let him down. And yes, it was a big chance.

Other than that he defended well, worked hard attacking, and linked up when he got the chance.

 

[CRIMHEAD]

Gylfi looks like a real leader of this team now. Gets through the dirty work and seems to be at the heart of everything good we do in attack. Plus he’s dead handsome. Gets my vote.

He's deadly when we sit back and defend because he can spring Walcott, Bernard, or whoever from deep so well. That pass to Walcott was just amazing.

 

[Professor Toffee]

I thought the ref did ok for a change
Great team performance
Let's rip beelzebubs playthings a new rectum at Analfield

shame they didn’t bring Barkley on really

 

[Sy-]

Mortata getting a hammering for diving and moaning on Twitter, and it's mostly Chelsea fans.

 

[toffeejack]

Didn't see the game but was it close? I saw a comment on here saying they should have been down to 9 men?
