Match Thread Everton v Them - Preview, Match Report & MotM Poll

[HalfTimeSayers]

Our defence is in another galaxy from this time last year. Same for midfield.

Moan about strikers all we like, but the stealthy transformation of the squad deserves credit given the financial constraints. And the attitude and bravery.

They batter and embarrass us playing like that last year.

Nice to see Gana back in the side…..

 

[JobForTheMoyes]

Can’t beat winning a point off this lot. Begone Klippity Klopp of the Veneerian Shire!

 

[Mr Happy]

Getting tired of the ‘What a performance’ Cup. 4 points against 6 trash teams is awful

Triggered ??

Pickford easily MOTM but credit to Allison, he was excellent too.

 

[JLW]

Great performance fight wise and footballing wise against a very good team.

If you can’t see we’re in good hands then you can’t be helped

 

[Blue in Oklahoma]

MOTM: Gotta stick with Pickford. But damn dude, keep the ball inbounds. Huge shouts to Patterson, Onana, Mykolenko, Davies...the whole squad put in a shift and deserved to keep all 3 points. Best we have looked in ages. Keep up the quality and the goals and points will come. Get back into training, get DCL back in form and don't settle. Get in, boys!

 

[Toffeeslam]

Felt we went toe to toe with them and didn’t look like we were hanging in.

Good performance today and could have knocked it

 

[Joey66]

Pickford MOM but we may have won the game ... The ref was hard work in their favour...

 

[eurosrees]

That midfield is going to boss it, pretty confident we’ll win every game 1-0 from now on*

*Apart from next week, that will be a standard 0-2.

 

[Neiler]

Pickford was superb as was Iwobi yet again.….

Iwobhino.

 

[Dharma]

Lots to be positive about there lads. Good result for us, great result for the league.

Pickford MOTM.

I'm off to see Khruangbin, have a great weekend blues.

Thanks mate. "So we won't forget"

 

[McCall2Radzinski]

When you consider how lame the Allan red card was last season, Van Dijk was asking to be sent off.

 

[Bkk Andy]

Great game of football, except for my blood pressure. If we can play close to that level every week we'll have no relegation worries. Wins will come soon enough

 

[Mark_EFC]

This is a different team now that Lampard has his own guys. Bright future

Pickford unreal again. Patterson is going to be a star right back. Midfield three looked great. Gana adds another dimension.

ZERO worry going forward. Mid table team
