Match Thread Everton v Tottenham Hotspur.- FA Cup 5th Rd.- Wednesday - 8.15pm

[Philw]

Keane has just had a couple of iffy games. In terms of the goals, Gylfi did a poor job marking Sanchez, Mina mis controlled for the Lamela goal and Doucoure lost Kane for their 4th. Keane has never been great with players running at him which they were able to do a lot of in the first half as we were a bit sloppy.

It's just blip for him and I'm sure he'll be back on it for Fulham.

I also didn't think Godfrey have a great game today. He doesn't look that comfortable at right back.

Great result though and so good to see us not crumble for once!

That was Mina.

That needs to be a t-shirt!

Spurs fans crying about this. Pathetic.

Marine have had to issue an apology.

lol

Meh, so basically they tried to have a laugh and some Spurs fans went all Kopite and had a go at them so Marine caved and gave into the pressure. Sad state of affairs.

Hate to say this but we play attacking football better without Dom (centre forward) because with him we are so direct and everyone trying to whip in a cross as soon as possible.

Richy gives the team more options but ultimately they are deadly partner and Ancelotti need to find a way to pairing them up front again.

Would it be 442 diamond, 4312 or 352 I don't care. We don't have decent wingers anyway lol

Watching Everton should be classed as an underlying health condition.

Absolutely superb effort from the lads last night, yes there was mistake aplenty but that was some effort to get us over the line. Made me proud to be a blue.

I remember Jenas saying how Spurs were sloppy in their play leading to some of our goals and Lescott piped him down with something like “if that was Man City, we’d be praising them for the high press which lead to the mistakes”.

not been able to win a game by more than 1 goal mostly, should be a health risk for 90mins for a start lol, worry and panic for 90mins lol

The same Dom who scored, assisted and won the penalty for our first three goals?

When Allan’s back I could see the diamond working really nicely with Richi and DCL up front and James just drifting about behind them

 

[Philw]

Be interesting to know the story on why DCL ducked for their first goal.

I've seen a few ppl on here say that Keane called it. He must have heard something to not go for the header.

My view on it was that DLC got a shove in the back from a spuds player putting him off balance and so he was unable to jump for the ball. Weather he got a call or not is hard today.
