Match Thread Brighton & Hove Albion v Everton - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[billybeeru]

The penalty was harsh but the way we played after that perfectly encapsulated everything wrong with this team and this manager.

 

[PITA]

I'm not even blaming Silva for that. We had Brighton utterly beat and VAR has absolutely robbed us of 3 points.

You can maybe question if the players heads should have dropped quite as spectacularly as they did, but understandable surely.

Want Silva to proper lose it laer.

He won’t though.

Players are to blame, but Marco will take the fall, sorry bud

It's swings and roundabouts, Silva took all the plaudits last week.

A ridiculous VAR decision. We were the better team and did enough to win. Fuming.

VAR ruining things with it's completely made up rules that are used as and when they feel like, it needs completely removed from the sport until they can decide how it's used instead of just testing it out and hoping it falls in place.

Everton continuing to be crap isn't really a surprise, there's absolutely no desire in the team and the fact that we haven't won a game from behind under Marco shows how fragile the mentality is, it should have been addressed long ago. That VAR decision should have spurred them on and instead they did what they usual do and panic hoping to hold on for whatever it is they have.

What’s the point of VAR when the bell checking it is Lee Mason? Unbelievable . Just another chance for an absolute disgrace of a ref to stick his oar in

 

[ToffeeTim]

Least the var referees will go down home happy the cheat

 

[Hellerad]

Alright. That’s enough GOT for a while.
It’s hard enough to support Everton without this nonsense.

He'll certainly be losing something

I’m like that person who has a gym membership but doesn’t actually go. I’m officially an Evertonian, but I’m not interested any more. I think I’ll ‘cancel my membership’ and if I can be bothered with football, I’ll just be a neutral.

 

[faddy the blue]

Gomes
Sigurdsson
Richarlison
Keane

They have 0 fight and character in tough times. A MoM performance last week to a piss poor one today from Gomes. Richarlison I still do not know what his role is. Keane is a poor CB who needs to be moved on

 

[Melkor]

To hell with you Silva apologists and the board for not sacking that moron!

What is so god damn special about Silva?

 

[DanEFC92]

Football knocks me sick.

 

[Ron Burgundy]

VAR is ruining the game week by week.

The 'Silva Out' brigade can't place that defeat on the manager. We were in complete control until that utterly disgraceful penalty decision was given.

Well and truly falling out of love with football.

I would not leave that stadium until I was refunded my ticket and travel costs.

Why? We actually played decent and deserved the win. A terrible var decision and an own goal cost us. Massive improvement the last 2 games. Today was just Unlucky
