Awful final passes

[mrb85]

That had to be the most frustrating performance for a long time. So often we got into great attacking positions, but were totally unable to lay the final pass on a plate. Add to that the dithering over pulling the trigger when in great shooting positions (Barkley in particular seems to always want to have the ball exactly where he wants it before taking the shot) and no wonder we were pulling our hair out in between biting our nails in what should have been an easy victory.

A few times barkley wanted to just hold the ball rather than pass.

If we win it isn't frustrating. It's frustrating when we should have won but haven't.

If we made every final pass, we'd sure score a lot of goals. Pretty sure that's not how it works in the real world though.

What people forget is that there's ELEVEN other players on an opposing side!

The people that make these comments and say stuff like "we were rubbish today" have obviously never played football in their lives.

The opposing team aren't there to fill the pitch yknow

Jesus wept.

When did Everton fans turn into Sad Sacks?

We won today.

I have sat through enough "frustrating" Everton performances over the years to know that today wasn't one of them.

Please stick this in the match thread lads.
