Match Thread Everton v Arsenal - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

Digne must get the nod then coz you mentioned him twice

Haha I'll never not vote DCL and you know it.

 

[deipnosophist]

Profligate, surely (not trying to be a prick, just yknow, for future reference)

no...prodigal is correct. It means squandering, wasteful...
...just for YOUR future reference

If we lose Gana & Gomes next season that will be a massive loss.

we won’t mate.

 

[Chris O'Connor]

Arsenal got away with it there, should have been 3-0.

Excellent performances from virtually everyone in blue, DCL and Idrissa Gana Gueye impressed me most but what a last minute stand in Jags proved.

All those thoughts of sacking Silva expressed by some should be changed now, he still has a hell of a long way to go, but sacking him now would be wrong imo.

Hope we avoid the Europa tbh, such a poisoned chalice and wrecks next season, rather come 8th or 9th than 7th if you're punished with the Europa. Let Leicester or Wolves wreck their prospects for next season, not us.

Away day woes continue for Arsenal haha

DCL was MoM for me as well. The whole team played well and my fingernails got no abuse for a change.

It shows what a good refereeing performance can do, he didn't fall for any of Arsenal's whingeing and play-acting.

 

[RomanReigns]

Don’t know what was more comical Arsenal’s defending or a bunch of grown ups playing scaletrix before the game crashing into each other

Apart from one half chance they didn’t lay a finger on us

It was almost embarrassing as West Ham’s performance against us

We well and truly fingered them though.

Point taken, I just feel prodigal tends to imply a sort of excessive, opulent sort of eastefulness, like if we'd been shanking shots wide into big stacks of Dom Perignon for a laugh. Anyway, I probably am being a melt so apologies.

Silva out.

 

[brownmola]

Bernard was absolutely amazing today with this clever little touches and his three or four really important defensive interventions. Absolutely love the player!

 

[Howards tipple]

DCL - ran that defence ragged.

Great result against a top 6 side, has the mentality changed?

Superb performances and effort all round.

5 clean sheets in 6.

Bring on Utd and Spurs. I can't wait!!!

hey @Howard's Beard … the man here is the man of words so bow down

 

[Toffe3m4n]

Arsenal fans do make me chuckle. Very quick to point the finger at the officials this evening despite their team being largely crap today and in no way deserved anything from the game regardless. Weirdos

 

[IV(AC)]

Happy days. I voted the Whole Team because from front to back, that was an excellent team performance.
Work rate, commitment, skill and movement.
So good to watch the Blues playing like that

It's still before noon where I am so I have no pint in hand but thankfully Everton have seen to it that I don't need one (i.e., five).
