Everton 1-2 Birmingham City

[Animal Farm]

Distin is [Poor language removed].

He is.

Bily, Donovan, Neville, Cahill and Baines (apart from the assist) were also very, very poor.

I'm new here so forgive me but I never hear people talking trash on Howard? Does he ever get blamed for anything? I didn't see the first goal today, but the 2nd goal was just a great play by birmingham players.

Didn't have much of a chance on either one imo. He isn't the problem.

Moyes and Round have to revamp the defense. Jags coming back will be huge.

You were saying bud?

This is an Evertonian discussion, no need you sticking in on this one!

Well Done, it was a strong performance we weren't on top of the game and the line-up was wrong to start with, but one thing you must admit we had created enough chances to even win this game, but it wasn't to be.

So, good luck to you in the next round, but I won't say good luck to you guys on winning the F.A. Cup, coz we still wanted to qualify into Europe through the league and hoping it would be a Arsenal-Chelsea final or two of the Top 4 team in the final.

it feels like we've been relegated, this is the worst i've felt after any defeat this season, including arsenal. utd and l'pool out probably spurs aswell, we could have done it this year. we defo didn't beat city last week, it was all a conspiracy. lets give the bluenoses something good to talk about.............
i feel like sh!te, don't even wanna go the kitchen to make me dinner. lifeless i is, lifeless.

birmingham ffs. arrrrrrrrrrrrgh.

Give Mcleish and Brum due credit, our play and covering left us open to the first. Did not see the second as the stream was off.

As for Distin, said long ago this was crap, heck of a price to be paid (we were fleeced, desperation buy) and what is it 3/4/5 year contract what a [Poor language removed] load of nonsense.

I do not care what game it is but Duffy should have been playing, and I do not care if he screwed up for me he is the future main CB.

 

[Andriy.EFC]

lol@Distin 3-year contract. He's probably on 30+k a week.

 

[TheDevils2001]

It doesn't matter what we say now, the result is what matter and we were knock out in the 4th round by Birmingham, end of story! Give them credit? What for? It's one of those game either team could have won and it could have easily been a draw.

Distin looks ok against City, but he was crap today meaning he is inconsistent with his performance, I certain see a Senderos-Heitinga combination against Sunderland or Jagielka-Heitinga combination when Jagielka is fully fit. One thing for sure I don't want to see Distin playing in the coming matches until he sort out his problem.

 

[Robert Jarvis]

His problem for me is he is not good enough.

That....And Cahill not playing.

 

[Brownie]

Probably the most frustrating kind of performance for me. I ******* hate it when we're one of those teams that has a lot of the ball but's too [Poor language removed] to do anything with it.

Same here.

It was exactly like the last time we played them...but with them getting a 2nd goal we couldnt.

Very disappointing, we didn't wake up in the first half and gave ourselves a mountain to climb. Decent second half but the end product was frustrating.

But I'm optimistic, I believe in this side. Especially with Mikel coming back, he looked very promising when he came on and just oozes composure and class. Great to see him back.

We'll be fine.

Was funny him trying to be cool and businesslike just cos we were losing.

Bloody Everton. I'm now in a right nark and it's going to take many many units of alcohol to get me in the party spirit for tonight. Bollocks. At least Mikel's back.
