Dont really know where to throw this in, so this will do. On Suarez he is a fantastic player so dangerous, he wont be at the red****e long also the young lad sterling was excellent i thought, but that really is all they have, we missed our most creative players today in pienaar along with losing our best player on the day mirallas and i still thought we were the better team, let gary 'the fish-face' glitter go on about his youth over at the pit all he wants he gave all of them the hook before the hour. they wont make it and neither will he at anfield, he is on a freebie and within reason he will get away with anything this year next it will be very different.
 
Overall, it's an unfamiliar sensation not to be seething right now. At 0-2 I'd have bitten your hand off if offered a point. Having said that, we were much better than them for most of the game after they scored. Suarez should have gone for his deliberate scrape of the studs down Distin's Achilles. Stirling could have gone too; it would have been a bit harsh but not totally surprising. Still, we got away with one at the end so as Nelson would say 'Ha ha.' Mirallas was great (card waving aside) and most of the team played well. Gueye might have great technique but he is miles too slow for the prem and that isn't going to change. I'm prepared to accept being wrong about this, you don't get the full picture from the tv, but I thought Jelavic was poor throughout.

I don't even think it would have been harsh. It was a second yellow.

On a sidenote I was delighted to see Howard charge towards the ref to make that point. We need more people like that.

Mirallas was fantastic for that too. That lad is a winner.

Had to laugh at the commentator specifically calling out Howard trying to 'influence' the ref, they never mention that word when Utd, Chelsea, etc are surrounding the ref at every opportunity but as soon as we have one player who may be vocal it gets highlighted.
 
At 0-2 with again awful defending - Duffy needs to replace Distan to add Height - I would have settled for 2-2 - then when Mirallas ran them ragged till injured I thought we could have won it - when He never appeared in the 2nd half I thought it would play out at 2-2 - then when they scored the alledged third in the 91st minute {it was not offside but a blatant foul on Jags}
I was happy with 2-2 in the end TBH!

Especially when the ****bag Rodgers moved to a 5-back formationi thought he would have broken it down, but no, that prick took Mirallas out of the game and never got punished.

They are both exactly the same height. Replacing Distin with Duffy is nuts anyway like.
 
Mental game, that. Happy with a draw considering that we went 2-0 down.

Wrote a piece about it here, actually: http://bleacherreport.com/articles/1387441-everton-2-2-liverpool-a-toffees-post-match-thoughts

Would appreciate it if some fellow blues could give it a read, and maybe share and comment.


The only issue i have one here is you discussing a rumour on Twitter

More disgraceful though is the rumours of vile chanting about the ninety-six victims of the Hillsborough disaster. I hope this isn't true.
If it is, there's only one thing to say:
Anyone who did it is not an Everton fan. As far as I'm concerned, they're not even human.
Find them, shame them, and ban them

What the point in this, you could be spreading lies, dont believe everything on Twitter.

I don't think either of Stirling's challenges were likely to have caused any injury. He doesn't seem to know how to tackle. Neither was at an especially contentious moment. They were both fouls, seen both given as yellows but if it had been one of ours I would have felt it was 2 soft fouls and a harsh sending off.
