Match Thread Everton v AFC Bournemouth - Preview, Match Report & MotM Poll

[Seathestars]

Decided MOTM was the crossbar challenge fella with 14 to West Ham on his tee shirt

I didn’t notice that, did he have that on his T-shirt, hats off to him if so.

Thought they showed great effort in the 2nd half, got the crowd going.
Delighted with the result but poor poor poor refereeing.

I'd like to say something positive about today's referee. Hasn't he got a nice shiny head?

Actually, I will give him credit for not showing Gomes a second yellow card. Or is that just bad refereeing?

Awful ref. Seems par for the course now.

Nice to hear the fans giving him some abuse. Not heard chants towards the ref in a long time. We need our fans to be angry again (like we used to be) not just passive-aggressive.

Great result, happy Sunday everyone x

 

[RomanReigns]

One of the worst first halves I’ve ever seen from us. Thought they would equalise in injury time the amount of chances they had

Silva is just not good enough

 

[BernieH]

Still trying to understand why lerma and Gosling didn't get yellows

 

[Toffe3m4n]

We're still CRYING out for a striker (be it a loan) this window.

We really need to tell one of our players, whether it be Richarlison, DCL or whomever, that they NEED to be on the six yard box when one of Bernard/Lookman/Coleman/Digne has the ball near the 18 yard line. It astounds me how often we have no one in that area when the ball is about to be played in....

We won 2-0 Spud mate.

Because the ref was a dildo.

 

[Bluebonic]

A referee so utterly rank he is nailed on for the derby, other than that an enormous display by Bernard and Digne and I thought Mola played well too. Good to hear the crowd vocal too, and ironically we have to thank that dreadful ref for that!

 

[RomanReigns]

We won 2-0 Spud mate.

It’s a start but a team like Bournemouth should not be outplaying us like that In the first 30

We are so lucky they weren’t 2-0 up at half time

 

[Ron Swanson]

Great turnaround in the second half. Have to give the manager credit for that.

 

[Irish nsno]

That the one who looks like a lesbian?

Spot on m8

 

[Tommy Chong]

1st half was rubbish, but the second half we pulled thumb and got a result...
Hopefully we gain a bit of confidence and go on a run now!
