Everton v Spurs. 3rd Nov @ 13.30.

[Royal Blue Jersey]

Pienaar was horrid, so was Osman and Mirallis. McCarthy very poor. Good games? nobody really. Spurs were as toothless as us. Disappointed really...0-0 was the right result for a ****e game

Pienaar was class on the ball I thought. A few iffy backheels but never let Spurs intimidate him while in possession, as others did.

Listen, Spurs are quality - vastly improved outfit from last year. We had a poor start but over 90 minutes we were by no means shown up. We'll challenge the top 4 this year.

This was probably the biggest test for us so far under Martinez, and unfortunately we completely failed it.

Your definition of complete failure is dramatically different to most people's I think.

Thought Pienaar was the only player who actually looked like creating something today.

Ok mate, but that's fine, because you completely get the jist of what I am saying. I.e. that for large parts of the game we were outplayed by our opponents, despite having a full-strength (excluding Gibson) squad to choose from and being at home.

In that regard, I think we completely failed to show what we are capable of. If Spurs' striker had been bothered today instead of strolling around doing nothing, they might have been out of sight by half time.

Do you always pick up on definitions of words and phrases.

He's a little human dictionary is davek. His talent is wasted on here.

 

[Coach]

They are a good side. We are a good side. The ref was a co ck.

Comes across as a bit of a bellwiff to be honest. Instead of just accepting the fact we got bummed.

There's a reason why Oviedo doesn't get a sniff

He is outclassed by his competition I suppose.

Like us in the first half mate

Like us in the first half mate

don't you mean like we done to them in the second half?

The knee jerking on this forum will never cease to amaze me. We were poor first half but improved second and showed we are an equally good team. Both teams cancelled each other out and was it was going to be extremely difficult to win the game for either side. Quite a positive day in the end I thought, Barkley made a huge difference when he came on and will start the next game. We're two points off second still and that is more than anyone hoped for at the start of the season

 

[davek]

Outclassed and completely failed. ...the description of a game of two halves by teams sharing the points.

Laughing.

I'd hate to hear how you two chuckleheads would describe a defeat.

No mate, we were completely outclassed and are utter failures.
