Needed another goal.

Besic was mega-boss though

 

[daza_1973]

Well in

 

[USABlue]

Boss game. Fantastic goal to gain the lead right back. Barry and besic co-MOTM. Hope the injuries aren't too severe. City will be happy with the away goal though

Great result but it's such a shame they got the away goal. I just hope Rom, Coleman and Cleverley are all ok

 

[Tommy Chong]

Just do them at the Etihad now, blues...

 

[Darth Toffeeman]

Good to get the win but will be really hard to go to City and win. Need to get it tactically spot on.

If the injuries are bad we have to go out and buy players asap. The chance of winning a cup is a very real possibility, but not if we have no centre forward.

 

[Bigmaclad]

Well played, Gareth Barry was outstanding

 

[Rook]

Besic MOM, everyone else pretty much did their job. Plz be OK Rom.

 

[maccavennie]

Game management so much better there, even more focused when we went to 10 men. Apart from one piss poor but of concentration to give them the one clear chance they buried that was a superb performance.

Grit, determination and mixed up the football. Well played lads, given ourselves a chance and will be backed by an army of 8000 Evertonians who will have something to shout for in a couple of weeks

COYB!!

 

[chrissyjack]

Great performance . Besic is .....( insert adjective )

 

[The Mighty Quint]

Not flattered, fully deserved win, bossed them for 2/3rds of the game.

 

[BirkenheadBlue]

Always a good result to beat City, but fear we needed to keep a clean sheet

 

[toffee matt]

Fantastic performance from everyone in blue tonight

Pretty poor scoreline though if we're being honest

 

[Tramps_mate]

What's Stones waving for??

Aaarrgghh he's leaving!!!

Yup that's why we need to win there to go through me thinks ( even tho I can't see it)
