Everton v Arsenal. 23rd Aug at 17.30.

[Del]

Loads of posts saying he's not ready yet, makes too many mistakes etc. regardless of position.

He's a CB, Play him there and see if he makes mistakes, He's not a RB

Gutted to drop 2 pts but

1 - On balance of play draw was prob fair result
2 - I would of taken a pt before game
3 - half our IX weren't fit.

So not all bad. More annoyed with last wk

 

[toffeejack]

At least were not Burnley.

most of the football teams in the world say that though

 

[Fuleco]

Having a mini Magnum here and generally feeling a bit better about the game.

 

[Abraders]

Are people seriously panicking here?

Look it was disappointing not to win but we showed we are a better side than Arsenal today.

Our pre season wasn't ideal so when we get fully up to speed fitness wise we will see out games like that.

Just my opinion.

Completely agree. If we were 2-0 down like more than half the people expected here, and came back 2-2 then everyone would be buzzing. We were 2-0 up and threw it in the final moments, and were nowhere near 3rd gear throughout the entire game.

We're going to be fine.

Let's face it if we'd have been offered 2-2 before the game we'd have taken it. If Pienaar is out long-term than Martinez really should go into the market for another midfielder as well as the striker we are desperate for. Convinced we'll make a signing now - but still think it'll be deadline day. Disappointed because we've only got ourselves to blame because we let Arsenal play in the last 20 minutes and they opened us up. Onwards and upwards but we need a full-on, 90 minute performance vs Chelsea now. They really could steam-roll us if not.

One of those games that makes you want to play FIFA and smash someone 14-0...KOFF

1. Nope.

I thought he was excellent. Seemed like he misjudged his header for the second goal but I only saw it live from the Gwladys so maybe he just couldn't jump high enough.

Yeah, it was just a very good cross. There was nothing wrong with his positioning when the ball was played in, all he could do was try to get his head on it, but it just wasn't possible.

I agree.

FFS Del I'm not arguing with you!

LEAVE IT BRUV.

 

[Fat Larry]

I'm not a violent man normally, but I wanted to head butt that snide Chambers at half time.

 

[mythbuster]

Make do with what you have. We didn't have suitable replacement for him.

You do realise he was injured?

But hey ho, when has an injury ever prevented a footy player from playing, eh?

FFS.

McGeady was a great sub wasn't he?

 

[marty mcfly]

I like how everyone's going on that we should get Stones in.

He was getting slaughtered last week.

He's not a right back but I don't think I would throw him in against Chelsea either.

 

[Del]

I agree.

LEAVE IT BRUV.
