Everton 1-2 Birmingham City

[Tennessee Blue Mike]

Crime against football - they remind me of us five years ago!

Fellaini is an abolute colosus in our team!

You know I thought the same in the first half they closed us down and it paid dividends.

I totally agree with the second statement too.

 

[Axlswhk]

Wrong mate all our problems are at the back!

We have problems at both end today.

 

[timmy17]

Awful perfomance (both team and manager).

bollox moyes made good moves and we dominated...it was one of those days when we didnt get the bounce

We chose our own fate today in the first half. I am extremely pissed off now that the game has ended. Did we take them for granted, I think moyes didn't but some of our players did. I do not want to see distin in an everton shirt ever unless there's no other center back. I'd take Duffy over him at this point. He was easily beaten for the 2nd goal.

It was like a spurs like performance. Magnificent one day, then slow and rubbish the next day out.

2-0 down at the start of the 2nd half..we did get back in with osman but I have to give credit to birmingham because they still didn't panic as i was expecting them. They kept attacking whenever possible and frustrated us more and more. Had it been us we would have brought on hibbert for saha if he was fit and defended for the next 25 min.

Welcome back Mikky,now you have some work to do. Specially the set pieces and I'm relieved that Baines won't be taking them now.

 

[Sheedy]

Im well gutted.

Brum are [Poor language removed]. ******* [Poor language removed] anti-footy. Not taking away anything from them like, that's twice and we couldnt beat them. They did what we couldnt, defend and score.

But **** off. We should be winning these games....grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. JUST **** OFF!!!!

And if Brum do get into Europe....the prem's gone made.

And they've got loads of money to spend too.

FFS!

Bollocks. That's all Im saying. Beaten at home by Barry Ferguson.

Finally someone who saw it right.

Better than those goons who say "well at least we lasted longer than liverpool"

 

[kenada_blue]

why did he take saha off, he was getting there. cahill needs to be dropped, he offers nothing to our play anymore we've moved on. we were great 2nd half we just can't score. darren bent's gonna have a field day against distan. mikky looked alrite on the ball, wasn't sure on that freekick at the end though. what a waste our run was last year beating all those teams to then get beat by birmingham, they're not a good side. don't care what anyone says, they are sh!te. BUY A STRIKER DAVEY.

Exactly. Saha was getting into the swing that got subbed while Cahill did sweet FA all game.

 

[royalbluejersey]

Hamburg instead of london this year then.

That's the spirit.

 

[devonblue]

That's the spirit.

hamburger for tea at least with onion rings and mini waffles

So, are we going to win the league still?

We played mostly [Poor language removed], too many players had a weak game. Saha, Cahill & Distin stand out.

Luckily we have some options now to replace them when they're out of form. Should have done much, much better in the final third but fair play to Birmingham for being very resolute and taking their chances.

It hurts, it f*cking stings in fact but we're still onwards and upwards I reckon, starting on Wednesday - we'll have to play better than that like.

You are ****** clueless you mate.

 

[Axlswhk]

No porblems upfront or in midfeild its at the back.

you obviously did not notice our crossing in the first half.

 

[Tennessee Blue Mike]

League doesn't lie Brum a decent team.

We have problems at the back that needs to be resolved in the summer.

Players need rest Cahill, Saha must have niggling injuries.

Bily not up to this type of marking TBH neither was Donny.

We need a Crossing seminar for the lads. Then better times ahead?

 

[Roger That Johnson]

Great stuff! 15 games now so as you would guess im very happy indeed. Unlucky for your boys today much better in the second half but the blue machine keeps on going!

Good post mate. Saha came to life about 2 minutes before he was subbed. Cahill did nothing. Distin didnt really do anything either.

Baines was poor in the first half, but picked it up in the second.

Donovan was quiet as was Billy. I'll put this down to the way brum strangled us.

Fellaini not up to his usual standard, but still miles better than anyone else.

Conclusion: Must do better.

 

[NeoNaoNeo]

Typical us really, as soon as people get optimistic they put in a duff performance.

Still thought we deserved more though, created enough chances.
