Match Thread Everton 2-1 Crystal Palace. Sun Oct 5th. 2pm

[overkill]

We're were playing much better second half. Keane going off (no reflection on Keane) was the point that we started dominating.

I think the added energy from that point help

Adding Tim into the midfield against a tired team was a good move

 

[LinekersLegs]

Aye Aye Aye.
Well in Lids. Good subs by Moyes at HT. Too little use of subs by Glasner. Lacroix’s lazy attempt for the penalty an example of that. If we got 2 up at any point I think we would have won (I would say that of course).
I’m glad that unbeaten monkey is off our back and if it had to be anybody……

Gracious as always Alan, thanks.

Not sure why your lads play so well over at the other ground but are unlucky at ours but long may it continue!

this lemon on the radio needs hooking.

The Five Live one or the Radio Merseyside one?

Merseyside.

Just got home, what a game of two halves. Alcaraz sub was the turning point and apart from one Beto blunder that put them in on goal, he played quite well.

Ref was atrocious. How can you book Garner for pushing a player out of the way who was in his face for a good minute and wouldn’t move to allow the freekick. And then booked Moyes

Great pic!

The win will probably over shadow it, but let's not forget that Uche literally punched Tarks in the gut and VAR deemed it nothing.

Absolutely bizarre.

 

[Pootsy]

That was a serious chunk of extra, extra time

I think it the ref found the missing minutes from Anfield

 

[jazzy]

i did called it all week on here

just sayin…

Bet you didn't say that after the first half

 

[DanB90]

It helped that they're were completely knackered after playing in Europe a couple of days ago like

That defo played a part.

But I’m glad our players heads weren’t as low as half the posters in here.

 

[Rita_Poon]

8 mins added and we’re now 90+9

goal, couple of injuries (tarkowski and n'diaye) a sub ? (coleman) and some fannying around with the ball out of play. Also a standing ovation by everyone there as beto tried to control the ball into the corner on his own and seemed to both tackle and fall over himself under no pressure.

 

[MaximusEvertonius]

I went with Alcaraz because he instantly affected the game. But I have to give mentions to three others.

Pickford - Amazing again today. Could’ve easily been down 4-0.

Keane - I thought he was solid again. Made some crucial headers away and clears. His presence was well known today.

Garner - Everywhere all the time. He never gives up. Beautiful crosses in that were wasted. True Evertonian.

 

[Bilko]

I voted Jimmy Garner motm, it's certainly his best run of form since he's been on the books.
Strange to point out but there were a couple of good performances in what was a very dodgy game. Alcaraz, Tarks, Pickford and Keane all were decent imo.

The refs are always so poor. Unbelievable they continue to get get away with it

If you got a 2nd you'd have probably won by 3-4.

You were really unlucky today, but of a freak penalty and second goal. We got our of jail big time
