SNAKEY BLUES

There is no doubt in my mind old Everton (no names) would have kicked that out when Shlupp was dead.

Not now. Win. Answer questions later.

UP YOURS

Really enjoyed that win.

We have always had the ability to batter any club at Goodison... but it's the tricky games like today away from home that we usually screw up.

We are a class or two ahead of Palace and we dominated pretty much the whole game. Love that we kept our composure and found a winner.

Koeman right on that palace player,he took him self off the Pitch as hes said,and then brought himselve back on,koeman live on palace channelk now in PR,PLUS IT LOOKED LIKE CRAMP ANYWAY

 

[BlueToff]

Great win. Sad that the FA Cup could halt our momentum. Need to be at a high level again when we're back in action at Stoke.

Need to just get the lads away for a few days. Get some decent warm-weather training and then get them back and raring for Stoke. Only 9 days. Not the biggest wait.

 

[Old Blue 2]

He rolled back onto the pitch as well, the fool.

Didn't know that. Serves them right then, the cheating gets!!!

Relieved to get the win here. There was such a feel good factor around the club after the City win and it would've been a massive let down to have dropped points today. Well done blues!

Fantastic to get the three points at the death...what a turnaround since the kids have been put in the side.

Yes a few kids at the right standard. I am sure you wanted the whole U23 team in there. Koeman has played a blinder with these kids by bringing them in slowly and making sure they are of the right quality by training them with the 1st team and coming to his conclusions.

 

[Howards tipple]

Today was never going to be easy and those expecting a goal fest will be disappointed.

Some great points to take away though:
Good day of results for us.
Clean sheet again.
Looking defensively settled.
Barkley looks confident.
Kept going until the end - something we wouldn't have managed earlier this season.
3 points! Up the blues!

 

[Toffe3m4n]

Good win. I have to be honest though, I don't get the Holgate love. He seems like a liability defensively, especially against physical strikers.

Really? Thought he was really good personally.

 

[Bubba]

A want us to be horrible snides, I want teams to hate playing us

COYB

 

[Simon baker]

Very good today.

He is a footballer very assured in possession

I also thought it were cramps.

 

[Deulofeumygod]

Mason had benteke in his pocket all game bar the header on to the bar. We thoroughly deserved that.

Excellent team performance. Playing with so much confidence and found our formation. Robles has been me consistency too.

 

[DRM]

We're scoring some late match goals this season!

 

[banno]

Didn't know that. Serves them right then, the cheating gets!!!

The commentator on my stream said he was off the pitch and rolled back on and this is why the ref took no notice of him. His own fault and we have nothing to feel guilty about.
