PICKFORD

“It was a freak one, really. It had hit the bar twice and I tried to flick it over. The ball spun and as I tried to flick it over, my hand hit the bar. It’s unfortunate but I am strong mentally.

“I just want to say sorry to the Everton fans. I think you could see our progression as a group, the chances we created and the football we played. That’s a positive but what can I do? There is always a case as a goalkeeper if you make an error it will lead to a goal. Unfortunately, it has been me today but I will be ready for Newcastle on Wednesday. We know we held our own against a good Liverpool side for 96 minutes. I will say sorry to the Everton fans again because I know how much it means to them. As players, we know how much it means to us. You make mistakes every now and again. It’s not something you can learn and train and get better from. It’s just a freak incident.”

From the Guardian.

Klopp also apologised to Silva.

EDIT: Silva said Klopp didn't.

Don’t worry Jordan lad, we still love you

The bottom line is that we matched one of the best teams in Europe away from home. It's years since we did something like that. Very encouraging.

 

[Frank Butcher]

Nothing to be ashamed of. We went there and put in our best performance there in decades. They fluked it and we will take them at Goodison.

Drugs/alcohol?

No, but I'll give it a shot and let you know how that works. Also, Kopites thin on the ground in my world. It helps immensely. I get Bama fans, which is the same thing with actual championships. Honestly, I loved the Everton I saw, and the rest I can put aside.

The ship is turning.

We'll out play them ..... but lose....
This is Everton

That was the old Everton.

This is the new Everton........welcome to a brave new world.

Things are improving ....but until we get some wins away at these top grounds .....same old Everton.
We need an emphatic response v Newcastle

 

[Carl O'Ancelotti]

After a brief falling out which lasted for about half an hour after the game I am happy to announce that I am back in love with Everton. We're getting engaged on Wednesday night.

Im still sick..why is it always us?We should have battered them first half..the filthy barstewarts were leaving the pub when that happened&i had me face rubbed in it when i thought we had a well deserved point...why oh why....because we are Everton...nothing ever goes right!Still take the positives and move on..up the toffees..forward we march

Just woken up to Pickford post match interview saying:

"I think it is the Everton luck when we come to Anfield".

Firstly he's a brave lad for doing interviews, personally I would have liked him to be sheilded, with a bit of time comes a clearer perspective... But talk about reinforcing a stereotype!!! I thought we had gone a long way to rid ourselves off this Anfield bottlers/'Everton that' mindset with that performance yesterday... but then bang, here it is again.

Lots of teams have poor records there, maybe I've a bad memory, but I can never remember Fergusons ManU or Mourinhos Chelsea (teams with winning mentalities) saying a loss at the pit was "just he ManU/Chelsea luck at Anfield". Blame the ref, blame not enough added time, blame defensive concentration, blame tiredness, the state of the pitch etc. But let's not have any more reinforcing of this 'Everton that' mindset, especially from our players and coaching staff!

Hopefully we get them in the cup and beat the b*****ds at their place with 8000 blues to watch their pathetic faces.

We're a side that's obviously still in a rebuilding phase. To go to grounds like Stamford Bridge and Anfield and perform like we have done with so much upside ahead of us, it is really encouraging. Next season's going to be very tasty!

 

[Igrok]

Klopp felt that was his last derby win...

 

[Seathestars]

Short of injury, there is little that could be crueler, and here we are. Why do I not feel worse? Why am I so filled with hope?

I agree mate, it's a blow to lose 3 points that way, but really it is just 3 points. I'm looking at the improvement we've shown recently and like you, I'm hopeful for the future.
