Would love it if we could win a cup. Was a great time 1995.

Nice that wasn't it. Andre MotM by a mile. Hopefully someone teaches Rich and Gray to pass to each other when they're in.

We could hardly put a pass together under Benitez, so I don't think there was much stimulus behind the scenes to make those two work together.

Hopefully, Lampard will look at our general passing and an aspect of that will be playing each other in, triangles and movement.

Welcome back Everton, you’ve been missed.

The swashbuckling blues are back.

BOYA!! IN!! Very happy with this.

 

[BluePeadar]

To be fair I creamed my jeans after our last manager’s first few games so am guilty of premature expectations on more than a few occasions.

Only time i felt we didn't have control was that short 5 min period before HT and the 5-10mins their goal.

Otherwise well kept, well controlled. Nothing dafty dafty.

Just at the point we bought his replacement

Strength in depth

We'll finish above Brentford and their mutant fanbase this season, and either this one or next they'll go down without a trace.

….unlike me but I posted to @Zatara that I really fancied a comfortable win today. I thought Brentford were just about the poorest team we played this season & we only got beat for one reason, the indefensible obnoxious one.

Much more difficult on Tuesday.

A bit happier with Myko today ?

Where do Alli, DCL and VDB come in here squad looking positive and stronger in depth.

Patterson, no idea why he didnt come on. Thats just weird.

 

[hippopotamus]

It's nice to have a competent manager and to see us play football.

 

[john jako]

Slomes playing well makes Tuesdays team difficult to choose

 

[TommyDavo]

Superb display from Gomes

Andre gomes you sexy bar steward. Best bit about today, beyond the win and performance is you can actually see what they've been working on this week. A plan was in place and the players performed. Great start Frank!!!
