Match Thread Everton 1-2 Bournemouth. Tues Feb 10th. 7.30 pm

[Milkman]

I hate absolutely everyone involved with that performance and this football club.
I hate every sh*thouse player on the pitch.
The forwards piss themselves when they get anywhere near the opposition box.
The defenders piss themselves when they are anywhere near our box.
The midfield piss themselves if they have to play at a pace faster than walking football.
I hate all the players on the bench who can't seem to contribute anything.
I hate David Moyes and his coaching staff for ruining this first season at Hill Dickinson with their dour 1994 tactics. No wins at home in two months. Michael Keane on in the 93rd minute to rescue a point?

All of them are a disgrace.

This is the kind of fair and level headed assessment that we've come to expect from the matchday thread

Young lads and nothing players in that Bournemouth side just played us off the park. No fear.

I think 'played off the park' is a bit of a stretch

 

[JohnRoss23]

Just broke a plate in anger. Cheers Ev...

Just a game mate.

Let's be honest we were lucky to get a draw at Brighton
We were aweful in 1st half v Fulham
And apart from last 5 mins of first half tonight we were aweful again

We were much three better side against Brighton in the second half, deserved a point, I'll give you the first half against Fulham but we dominated them second half and we weren't awful tonight, should never have lost

Try flying from Dublin with your 9 year old son to watch that one! We’re on the bus back fuming

Getting back to North Wales after going the 1-1 with Wolves was bad enough mate, I don’t envy you at all

 

[JobForTheMoyes]

Right that's it I'm not cutting my hair until we win 2 home games in a row.

Ahem…

 

[bobbylatch]

Yeah this is miserable but it’s not going to cause me to lose sleep

We’re an average football team in need of improvement now, not a walking disaster

This. And it's why Europe is a pipe dream

 

[Verbal Kint]

Man U are going to run amock at the dicky

You know something that game will suit us. Sit back and pretend we are away from home. Wouldn't surprise me in the least we win that.

phone in.

"down the banks on myko, didn't know where the ball was, didn't look around"

sounds like the wolves second goal away where he was filled with fear.

 

[Sharpies volley]

Unbelievable that... but also believable at the same time.

Decent striker and we win that easy

This is were a good tactical manager earns his salt. George can play up front I believe. So put him upfront take Barry off and stop pumping the ball up long trying to hit the big man. Not many of the good teams play like that. They play through midfield and play the strikers in through the channels.

I think 'played off the park' is a bit of a stretch

and this is why we can’t rely 100% on stats

 

[magicjuan]

Other than KDH, I thought all our players were out-bullied all game.
We need to be angrier, snidier and more 'professional' in game management. Far too polite.

 

[st.domingo]

Then let him go and try to keep up. Beats being a man down.

Well, either that or actually get the ball…

 

[Rehnman]

Peak Everton that in terms of the frustration levels. I think we all knew that we needed that second goal.

Odd that fans booed at the end as we’d clearly given it a good go - annoying as the end result and some of the decisions were. I swear down in my first twenty years watching us we were booed off about twice. Now we’re booed off every time we lose.

 

[tommytowne]

How do you want to qualify for europe with Barry and beto as our striking options? The only criticism of moyes for me is letting dcl go...but we will never know exactly what happened...maybe he was asking too much and only earns a fraction of what he was asking here, so in this case it is just bad luck.

What I would do to have the Leeds version of DCL playing in blue tonight irrespective of what went on.
Just so annoyed we couldnt scrape three points. I'll console myself with what someone wrote earlier. Two mid table teams playing a game of football. Nothing to get excited about.
