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

[Alan Whittle]

Made up for you lids. Well in.

 

[BlueStevie35]

Hard not to feel emotional after that, after a dark dark week including a demoralising derby hammering, the boys not only turned up and performed for us but for the big man as well and got a thoroughly deserved win. Just a shame Lucas and Theo looked to have got knocks so could be an even more threadbare line up at Old Trafford next week

 

[blue to the bone]

Delighted with the win but it's one game mate. lol

One is all he might have.
We would have been beaten under Silva.

 

[orly]

How did it work out?

Very well because Duncan Ferguson is my hero and we won

 

[Efcjake]

That was very badly needed.

Ecstatic that Big Dunc got that out of the players. Massive confidence boost.

 

[Jamiednm]

Not getting carried away in the slightest because it’s only one game.

BUT, Dunc was my idol as a kid...

Imagine in 10 years time, this match is at the start of a documentary that chronicles the rise of Everton with Dunc going on to build a dynasty.

I’m an Evertonian - I have to dream otherwise what’s the point?

 

[Saaby]

What an experience that was, first ever live game at Goodison, can I live here ?

 

[Agent Blue]

Monster performance from the whole team even Schneiderlin had a good game.
Lets not rush into appointing another manager just yet.

 

[Daz1878]

YES! I can finally bear to watch MotD for the first time in a while - albeit to catch all 12 seconds of our game at the end, followed by much discussion of how poor Chelsea were. UTFT.

 

[Jonte]

Wonderful.

 

[Daytripper]

Thank [Poor language removed] for that. Admittedly I despaired a little seeing the team and that Niasse was sub. Work rate far superior than previously, rode our luck a little which you need and keeping decent possession is a real problem as is a lack of quality.

Seeing that pompous ego maniac in the directors box urgh.

Good job Dunc, got what was needed big man.

 

[jimineybillybob]

So many emotions with that. A big weight off the shoulders to win but to hear the noise from the stands. And to see big dunc showing pure passion. That’s the feeling I’ve missed.

 

[cronullasharks]

Unbelievable that. Great to see the team just have a real go

 

[Gibbo1976]

Get in, this is what this season was meant to be like...I love my club COYB

 

[Howards tipple]

Absolutely amazing result for the blues.

Every single played fought today.

A totally different mentality from what we have recently seen.

Tonight I will toast you Mr Ferguson with a rather large drink.
