Everton vs Swansea... Match Report and MotM Poll

[windymiller]

DCL for me. Got us back in the game, pulled their defence all over the place, drew a lot of fouls (which says a lot about how the opposition saw his influence) and held the ball up really well. Very mature performance.

When Snides went of we started playing as a team, he was p'ss poor needs showing the door in January and MoM Lennon.

 

[Pete Campbell]

Gylfi or Kenny for me. Great game all around after conceding a soft goal early.

 

[Tennessee Blue Mike]

Aaron Lennon. Terrible shot but put himself about and won us the first crucial penalty. You have the love his energy hate his shooting though. Since he has been in side we have more bite and tracks back like no other. Old school team player.

We are definitively still a little bit poo, but we are starting to show a bit more and more importantly we are getting results.

While it passing was dire for the most part, it was encouraging to see them try to move it with one touch more. Hopefully now that the defense is somewhat sorted Sam will spend a bit more time on the offense.

MotM for me was Sigs, but Lennon was a close second. Also great to see JJK getting more assured with each game.

Sweet Jesus, Sam will be comparing himself to pep soon

Motm has to be Kenwright for thinking he can pull of the greaser look in his snide leather jacket he got off the market

 

[Sarnia Kevin]

Has to be DCL, he worries defenders and his ball control is superlative. Gana, Lennon, Kenney and Tom Davies when he came on all good. Siggs with a brilliant goal and a couple of very good free kicks. Williams, Holgate and Martina looked strong in defense (apart from their goal). Wayne Rooney great in patches, but gave the ball away too much (and he knows it) but may become a good player given time

 

[Walken]

Gylfis strike alone was worth an motm award, in fact all five in midfield came alive when Davies came on and we changed shape, but I'm going with holgate again, who continues to be excellent

Apologies for the initial omission of Jonjoe Kenny... now added do feel free to amend your votes if you wish to

 

[SpongeBob brown shoes]

I thought JonJoe Kenny was great all game, he's really improving every game

100% correct.

His determination and tackling reminds me off Hibbert (who was good at that) but this lad has the added bonus he can play a bit too, Hibbert was very limited apart from his defending.

Fat Sam's after match interview was amusing: he twice said "once we got behind Everton's defence , the opportunities came"... a 'senior moment' no doubt, after managing so many clubs.

I'm anything but entirely convinced that he's the full quid.
