Match Thread Everton vs Leicester City - ~Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[diggerdestroyer]

Both of those pens were utterly dreadful. Slightly off centre and at keeper height, unforgivable really. Bottled it.

The one place and way not to take a peno.

 

[Zeke]

Good fight back in the second half and no shame losing on penalties. No time to feel too disheartened another tough game on Saturday, but if we show the same fight we showed tonight well beat Arsenal. The league with our current position in it is more important to be honest.

 

[Tin-Tin]

Tough one to take but good spirit. Baines was probably gassed taking that pen. Tosun; less said the better.

If he's gassed then he should have put his foot through it down the middle.

Only seen it once but on Cenk one, is Schmeichel a mile off his line

 

[BHvisitor]

This. People applauding that they actually did what is the absolute minimum, i.e give everything, for 45 min does my head in. The players will go home and forget about it, they couldn´t care less. Probably happy to be rid of the extra games. Loser players, loser club, loser fans.

This. A bare minimum in any game of football, particularly a home cup tie, is effort, alertness and commitment for 90 minutes.

 

[ToffeeTim]

These players are weak.

They need to go.

Carlo or no Carlo.

Only play when the pressure is off.

 

[witchdoc187]

Feel sorry? He´s gotten millions of pounds for being an absolute car crash of a footballer the last 2.5 years.

I don't feel sorry for his financial situation. He just seems like a nice guy who needs confidence.

 

[Petit]

Horribly disappointing but we showed a lot of heart and fight again tonight. Positives to take from it.

Tbh what are the positives exactly? That the players decided to try a leg for 45 minutes? Don´t you think the fact that they played like they´d been on the piss for the 1st half overrides it? AND the fact the they LOST ANOTHER MATCH at home.

 

[Mashtray]

Just watch Leicester draw villa

Ofcourse they will

 

[Undisputed_blue]

Finished:
Baines, Coleman, Keane, (Walcott, Delph)

Woeful:
Davies, Iwobi

Just not good enough:
Holgate, Calvert-Lewin, Mina, Bernard (Sigurdsson, Schneiderlin, Tosun)

Stealing a wage:
Sandro, Martina, Niasse, Bolasie, Stekelenberg

What a task Ancelotti has on his hands. We are full - absolutely chock full - of useless or finished players.

Another clueless post by a person who doesn't understand football.

Can someone check on @davek please

Ferguson and baines instrumental in saving our season. @davek you must be in turmoil. Condolences.

Yeah, that goad went well.

Judas to the rescue. eh?

 

[BluePingu]

Oh and look at the other result plastered all over the sports pages, no not Man City. What a surprise. Christ sake. Absolutely eff this crap.

All very well making a heroic comeback but there goes yet another pot just because of utter horsecrap penalty taking.

 

[sageyefc]

shambolic first half cost us there, if we bothered to try and play football instead of sitting off and just goofing it we’d have not been bossed that first 45

 

[ADT]

Lads.
2nd best team in the league rn
came back from 2-0 down with a £1 million defender in midfield
Actually tried
Keane/Tosun finished
Iwobi an appalling footballer
We're getting Carlo Ancelotti
We're rich

It´s 24 years since we´ve seen our team lift a trophy. There´s a lot of shame in that.
