oh everton we love you.

that was a really good win tonight everyone of them got behind the ball and played to our strenghts, even tho we were %50 short of players.
 
My man of the match.

The only difference between him and Lescott is age, in terms of quality it's very much like for like.

He's a real leader aswell, you could see him organising things back there and keeping Hibbert focused throughout.

Exactly what I was thinking tonight. Spot on.
 
Distin seems to me to be a better defender than Lescott. I also thought Hibbert stood in at centre-half quite effectively, & covered across for Gosling a few times too, but I won't be unhappy if we never have to ask him to do it again - I doubt we'd get away with it in the Premier League.

Yet again Everton seem to get by as a team despite everything apparently being against them - the players can be criticised for many things but the whole squad have great esprit de corps.

i'm starting to think that we should applaud lescott for his greed, if it weren't for that greedy snide then we wouldnt have distin. we wouldnt have conceded 6 to the arsh with silvain
 
Brilliant result considering the well below par performance. Standouts were Hibbert at CB, Distin, Maro, and Billy.

Yak and Jo were terrible as a forward pair this evening. Glad that King Louis has hit form recently tbh.

Nah. How many times was Howard really tested? We played well within ourselves in what looked like a cold version of hell.

No he wasn't tested but you couldn't say we handled them or took control. It was smash and grab, we were messy, unbalanced, and couldn't string a few passes together.

But I didn't expect anything else with what we had available. Again another team that if they had a little bit of quality we'd be stuffed.

I though jo, fellaini and especially distin played well. Jo and the yak too hunted every scrap they had and were kicked about a fair bit.

Ossie had a shocker, gosling not too far behind. Tough graft of a game
 
How come there's no Man of the match tally this season? I used to like that bit! Anyway I would've given it to Hibbert tonight closely followed by Distin.(y)

Jo was bloody awful as per use if you ask me
 
It may have been a tad easier if Billy's effort had gone in and not hit the post. But hey a wins a win. Jo and Gosling had a shocker.
Hibbert MOM IMO.
