Match Thread Everton 1-1 Wolverhampton Wanderers 19:30 Weds 7th January 2026.

Are Grealish and Keane out for Saturday?

Grealish will be a one match ban. Keano is 3 for violent conduct.

 

[witchdoc187]

Also what a save by Jordan at the end. World class

That referee and VAR should be investigated. Outrageous decision.

Sadly, that is not gonna happen

 

[overkill]

That's what happens when the wrong team is selected.

The right team consists of players we dont have though

 

[GrandOldTeam]

Which changes? Who? We had a weak bench

McNeil and Barry in particular should never have lasted until 88th and 91st.

He had Rohl, Dibling, Beto - could/should have been on when we were very clearly flagging. Playing bottom of the league here, didn't need top class coming on.

 

[Kraken]

Actually have no complaints for the ref. Grealish was dicing with a second yellow a few times and should have known better.

Keane, harsh, but he did pull the players hair.

Mentality, we lack the desire to dominate attack and finish off teams.

 

[roy vernon]

I thought Keane's red was a harsh one, but, Grealish, such an experienced player, he should be fined a weeks wages, stupid petulance.

 

[Pittsburgh Footy]

Wrong starting 11 for me. Beto and Pattinson should have started as well.Bad 2nd half. Subs were way to late. Stupid Red for Keane and very foolish by Grealish. Big time mess up tonight , and 2 players less when we are already screwed

To be fair I'd play Pattinson the actor over Everton's Patterson as well

 

[Swagger]

Clean sheet whilst the team played with 9 men for 15 minutes with Tarkowski and O'Brien at centre back and Patterson at right back...

 

[Curtis]

He thinks if it’s level he can’t make a change

Or in the lead basically paralyzed in making timely subs unless it's a panic move

 

[nsno_traditionally]

After all that I'm most confused by the complete lack of changes, maddening

 

[Ged G]

Also what a save by Jordan at the end. World class

Saved us a point there

Today’s result was 90% our two bonehead decisions and the rest on Moyes. I see a lot of comments about the gaffer, but come on. Gana slapped his own guy, Jake blocked a shot like a basketball player for a pen, Keane clearly pulled hair, and Jack was sarcastic right in the face of the ref. If these were children, I’d say the coach needs to instill discipline. These are the results of immaturity.

 

[JobForTheMoyes]

So just give what's obviously not a shirt a good yank once you've reflexively grabbed it?

The incident lasts less than a second in real time. You’re just talking nonsense.

 

[allen]

He was good first half and an utter shambles in the second.

Yeah, I was quietly thinking to myself at halftime that he’d done okay.

Totally lost control second half.

There’s no way on earth Everton ending with 9 men makes any sense.
