A poor James pass - one for the scrapbook.

Tell your grandkids

It's making me miss going to the match even more.

What a sweet feeling would it be going down for my half time pint believing that we'd play well in the second half and would actually win.

Was thinking today, ah well, at least I get a few quid back on this one.... then I thought how happy I'd have been last season being paid to not go lol

 

[danka duncan]

dammit im back

Worth a try

 

[twoblue]

Bha Pressing so high would like a bit of pace down the wings to hit them on the break

 

[Brett Angell Delight]

Be pleased. We wouldn't have had Allen or Doucoure

An excellent point.

My refrigerator has more heart and desire than Alex Iwobi.

Probably a better footballer too.

 

[MondayHater]

surely norwich could use iwobi?

In the reserves?

Please stop trying to pass the ball in the air to James when Ben White is right near him!!

 

[andy4efc]

Struggling to get a real hold of the ball really for long periods. We win ti back well and just have no control, no calm and sometimes few options.

 

[Brett Angell Delight]

Puts their cowardly crapness in even greater focus

Yeah, makes it look like more of a choice on their part

 

[Jim Hopper]

Sloppy with possession now.

 

[Rook]

James (with the exception of one boss pass just before our goal) has been quite sloppy today so far

fixture list is getting a little nuts and he's not used to really playing at all

 

[Chegsy]

Connolly launching himself to the floor again i see.

 

[TheBigIguana]

And another Connelly dive

If you are an Everton fan, you should be very happy with the team. They are pressing, they are coming out of the back playing, they are calm. Yes, there is one player there that has not come into the game at the same level as his teammates, but overall it is a good performance. Even James is a little off (but then again, James already had a couple of superb touches and passes), but still, the rest of the team are doing their job. By the way, all of this under tough weather conditions for technical players. I'm very impressed.
